Title:
METHOD FOR THE TREATMENT OF IRON-CONTAINING SLUDGE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/178073
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention is related to a method for the treatment of sludge containing iron and between 4.5% to 12% by weight of zinc. This method includes a leaching step wherein leaching agents include hydrochloric acid and chlorate, and wherein the pH of the leachate directly resulting from this leaching step is set at a value strictly below 1.5. Recycling method and treatment installation associated.
