EC Number: 235-595-8
Molecular Formula: CrH3O12S3
Molecular Mass: 343.208 g/mol

Basic Chromium Sulphate is used in dyeing of khaki cloth and in manufacture of chrome-based dyestuffs.

Basic chromium sulfate is produced from chromate salts by reduction with sulfur dioxide, although other methods exist.

The reduction could formally be written:
Na2Cr2O7 + 3 SO2 + H2O → Cr2(SO4)3 + 2 NaOH

Since 33% of the anion charges are due to hydroxy ions the basicity is 33% (but in tanning jargon it is known as 33% reduced). 
Products with higher basicities, e.g. 42% or 50% may be obtained by the addition of sodium carbonate, these are often used in combination with sodium formate. 

The Basic sodium sulfate is often left in the technical product since it is inert with respect to the tanning process. 
Basic chromium sulfate is important to fully reduce the hexavalent chromium to trivalent since the hexavalent is more likely to cause health problems for tanners and leather consumers.

Basic chromium sulfate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Cr(OH)(SO4). 
Basic chromium sulfate is a green, odorless solid at room temperature. 
Basic chromium sulfate is typically sold in powder form. 

Basic chromium sulfate has high tanning power and hence largely used in the tanning of leather. 
Basic chromium sulfate is easily soluble in cold water and very soluble in hot water. 
Chromium, particularly in the hexavalent oxidation state, is toxic, hence basic chromium sulfate, which is comparatively less toxic, is preferred in the leather industry.

Basic Chromium Sulphate are the mixture of various form of Chromium Sulphates including containing Chromium Hyrdoxide sulphate form chiefly. 
Basic chromium sulfate is prepared by the reduction of Sodium Dichromate Solution in the presence of Sulphuric Acid or Sulfur dioxide. 
The Cr2O3 content is 23.19% and a pH of 3.01, Basic chromium sulfate available in Dark green colour.

Ferrochromium and chromium based compounds are produced worldwide from chromite ore. 
Chrome chemicals are from chromium based compounds. 
Basic-chromium-sulfate (BCS) is a chrome chemical mostly required as main tanning agent in chrome tanning process in leather industry and also to synthesize other chromic compounds. 

During the preparation of basic-chromium- sulfate, sodium dichromate containing chromium (VI) is reduced to chromium (III) by sulfur-di-oxide in a packed tower at a chemical process industry (B&M Chemicals, India) where the BCS is produced at suboptimal efficiency due to inefficient (suboptimal) absorption of sulfur-di-oxide (as the gas enters the tower at a higher temperature) followed by reaction. 
Improper reduction leads to the presence of unconverted chromium (VI) that imparts toxicity, not only through product basic-chromium- sulfate but also through leather and articles produced using this chemical. 
Design and operating conditions of the packed bed absorber were found and effects of pH, temperature and concentration of SO2 on the performance of absorption were studied. 

The reaction is favored at pH 4. 
The overall efficiency of conversion in the tower is increased from 70% to 80% by operating the column at optimal operating conditions obtained using response surface method. 
Dispersion is achieved by random packing that provides complex countercurrent flow path resulting in greater probability of entraining gas inside the tower. 

Profiles of basic chromium sulfate are obtained along the height of the tower by solving mathematical models of the reactive absorption process. 
Chromium (VI) is 99% reduced to chromium (III) in the product. 
Leached residues and liquid wastes are treated with either ferrous sulfate or sodium sulfide to convert chromium (VI) to chromium (III) to provide sustainable technology. 

Treated solid waste is stored before safe disposal in hazardous landfill facility. 
As chromium (VI) is highly toxic, several sustainable methods are suggested to eliminate Basic chromium sulfate from effluent to provide cleaner and sustainable production environment in the industry.

Manufacturing of Basic Chromium Sulfate:
Basic chromium sulphate is produced from the simple reduction of Cr (VI) to Cr (III) by the addition of an excess of sulphur dioxide. 

The reaction can be represented as:
Cr2O3 + 3 H2SO4 → Cr2(SO4)3 + 3 H2O

Another reaction, based on the same mechanism as above, for the production of basic chromium sulphate industrially is:
Na2Cr2O7 + 3SO2 + H2O → 2Cr(SO4)(OH) + Na2SO4

The reaction is carried out in a steam-heated vessel. 
The excess sulphur dioxide formed during the reaction is removed in another reaction tower. 
Basic chromium sulfate obtained is in liquid state, Basic chromium sulfate is spray dried to form a powder, which is later packed in bags and sold.

In this study, basic chromium sulfate was prepared, and the product was manufactured from the widely used triple chromium, in addition to sodium chr omate and calcium chromate in certain proportions at a temperature of 1200 °C, as well as using sulfuric acid and glucose as shown in the experiment. 
Manufacturing until we get the final product. 
Some of the devices used in the mass production process, such as the CSTR reactor and dryer, were designed, with a brief explanation of the rest of the devices used. 

In addition, a study was conducted on the environmental impact of the product, in proportion to the industrial need and to achieve the slogan of clean and environmentally friendly work. 
Although there is no environmental impact of the product that has been manufactured, care must be taken when dealing with these materials as well as safety and health precautions must be used professional establishments. 
The sample was done and completed of the skin was taken and treated with the basic chromium sulfate that was manufactured, and some chemical tests were conducted on the sample, and the conclusion is that the base percentage is 33.33%, the percentage of chromium oxide is 3.8%, and the total ash percentage is 2.25%, and these percentages show the quality of the product.
