Abstract

Trivalent chromium is a trace nutrient essential to human beings while hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen and was among the 18 core hazardous air pollutants defined in 2004 by the US EPA. A new conceptual model of Cr speciation in deliquesced particles (pH 4) has been developed. The model provides new information on the soluble and insoluble forms of Cr in atmospheric PM. The dominant form of Cr(VI) in the solution was found to be Cr₂O₇ ²⁻. CrO₄ ²⁻ was produced by the dissolution of Na₂CrO₄(s) and K₂CrO₄(s) available in the solid core, but a considerable portion of the CrO₄ ²⁻ precipitated as (NH₄)₂CrO₄(s), CaCrO₄(s), BaCrO₄(s), and PbCrO₄(s). Cr(OH)₃ was found to be soluble, and the insoluble form of Cr(III) was Cr₂(SO₄)₃. Conversion of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) was higher than the conversion of Cr(III) to Cr(VI). The simulation results agree with the field measurements near Cr industries.
