Potassium Iodate

Potassium Iodate is a chemical compound. It is an oxidizing agent.

Description

The process involves dissolving Iodine in Potassium Hydroxide and after electrolytic oxidation using TSIA in an annular flow cell. At the end of the electrolysis the electrolyte is cooled to get potassium iodate. After filtration the electrolyte is recycled to the cell feed.

Chemical Reaction

3I2 + 6KOH → KIO3 + 5KI + 3H2O

Application

  • Iodization of table salt
  • In Bakery
