chromium electroplating

Chromium electroplating uses a chromic acid solution and applies a layer of chromium to the metal.

For existing chromium electroplating/anodizing operations:

• Proposed Chromium Electroplating, Chromium Anodizing and Reverse Etching Regulations (Archive)

Chromium Electroplating, Chromium Anodizing and Reverse Etching Regulations (CG I completed Feb 11, 2005.

• Chromic Acid Used In Chromium Electroplating, Chromium Anodizing Or Reverse Etching Regulations (PROPOSED)

After receiving and considering comments received during this 60-day comment period, the final Chromium Electroplating, Chromium Anodizing and Reverse Etching Regulations would be published in Part II of the Canada Gazette.

Chromium Electroplating, Chromium Anodizing and Reverse Etching Regulations Control air releases of hexavalent chromium from the electroplating sector either by limiting release at a point source or by specifying the conditions of use.

Based on analysis conducted for the Chromium Electroplating, Chromium Anodizing and Reverse Etching Regulations, the incremental costs of moving from fume suppressants to composite mesh pads would vary according to firm size as indicated in Table 2.
