A method of producing potassium Chromate directly from chromite ore and KOH was investigated. The chromium recovery was >90% after roasting at 800°C for 3 hours. The KOH‐to‐ore weight ratio was 1.2:1 and the ore‐to‐recycling residue weight ratio was 1:1. Production from the roasting process was easy to leach and about 100% of Chromate could be recovered through a treatment at 30°C for 30~40min with a water/solid ratio of 5:1. The obtained Chromate solution was purified by addition of conventional compounds.
