Adhemax Neutralizer Cr is based on a hydroxylamine com#ound.
Adhemax Neutralizer Cr #rotects the subse"uent #rocess ste#s 8 es#ecially the Adhemax A!ti3ator
'4 and Adhemax A!ti3ator NA - from drag-in of hexavalent chromium and sulfite and therefore increases
their stability and lifetime.
,om#ared to other reducing agents9 the drag-in of Adhemax Neutralizer Cr into the
Adhemax A!ti3ator '4 and Adhemax A!ti3ator NA is less critical.

1his #roduct contains com#lexing agents and therefore cannot be sent to the general circulation of rinse
0ater. 1he 0aste0ater generated by this #roduct must therefore be treated se#arately.
A mixing 0ith Ni-containing 0aste 0aters has to be avoided.
Rinse 9ater

at #@ ..* 8 2.* and neutrali4ation 0ith the use of calcium hydroxide and caustic soda.
Con!entrates and hi/her !on!entrated Rinse 9ater
,oncentrates9 also in #resence of Ni-ions9 should be diluted 0ith the rinse 0ater in the ratio of
at least 1 C $ before sending to the 0aste0ater treatment #lant and can then be treated by adding
'edi/anth C at a #@ of ( - 15.
Indication of com#lete #reci#itation can be obtained #otentiometrically. 1he amount of

After filtration is com#lete the filtrate must not be mixed 0ith metal ions bearing 0aste streams.
After a reaction time of about $5 min. the solution 0ill be filtered over a s#ecial filter #ress.
