    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(III)_picolinate

    Chromium(III) picolinate (also trivalent chromium) is a chemical compound with the formula Cr(C 5 H 4 N(CO 2)) 3, commonly abbreviated as CrPic 3. It is a bright-red coordination compound derived from chromium (III) and picolinic acid .

  3. Chromium toxicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_toxicity

    The World Health Organization recommends a maximum allowable concentration of 0.05 milligrams per litre of chromium(VI) in drinking water. [7] In Europe, the use of hexavalent chromium is regulated by the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive. Hexavalent chromium can be found in some dyes and paints, as well as in some leather tanning ...

  4. Water detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_detector

    A water detector is an electronic device that is designed to detect the presence of water for purposes such as to provide an alert in time to allow the prevention of water leakage. A common design is a small cable or device that lies flat on a floor and relies on the electrical conductivity of water to decrease the resistance across two contacts.

    In response, the TCEQ installed filtration systems on water-well sites that showed contamination of chromium. [78] As of 2016, TCEQ had sampled water from 235 wells and has installed over 45 anion-exchange filtration systems from this site [78] determined to be centered at 2601 West County Road 112, Midland, Texas. [79]

  6. Picolinic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picolinic_acid

    Structure of Zn(picolinate) 2 (H 2 O) 2. Hydrogenation of picolinic acid gives piperidine-2-carboxylic acid, a precursor to the drug Mepivacaine. Picolinic acid is a bidentate chelating agent of elements such as chromium, zinc, manganese, copper, iron, and molybdenum in the human body. [5] [6] It is a substrate in the Mitsunobu reaction.

  7. Level sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_sensor

    Level sensors detect the level of liquids and other fluids and fluidized solids, including slurries, granular materials, and powders that exhibit an upper free surface. Substances that flow become essentially horizontal in their containers (or other physical boundaries) because of gravity whereas most bulk solids pile at an angle of repose to a ...

  8. Backflow prevention device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backflow_prevention_device

    Backflow prevention device. The simplest, most reliable way to provide backflow prevention is to provide an air gap.An air gap is simply an open vertical space between any device that connects to a plumbing system (like a valve or faucet) and any place where contaminated water can collect or pool.

  9. Chromium(III) sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(III)_sulfate

    The formula of this compound can be written more descriptively as [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 2 (SO 4) 3 ·6H 2 O. Six of the eighteen water molecules in this formula unit are water of crystallization. Hydrated chromium(III) sulfate, Cr 2 (SO 4) 3 ·15(H 2 O), (CAS #10031-37-5) is a green solid that also readily dissolves in water. It is obtained by heating ...
