Chrome Reduction Ph Orp Setpoints

Direct answer: Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) is ~1,000x more toxic than trivalent chromium (Cr3+) and does not form a settleable/filterable hydroxide precipitate, unlike Cr3+ - chrome reduction is a mandatory pretreatment step before standard metal hydroxide precipitation, with strictly controlled discharge limits on hexavalent chrome specifically. These are real, vendor-published process control setpoints, not general industry knowledge.
Confidence: confirmed
