M. Panayotova et J. Fritsch, TREATMENT OF WASTE-WATER FROM THE LEAD-ZINC ORE PROCESSING-INDUSTRY, Journal of environmental science and health. Part A: Environmental science and engineering, 31(9), 1996, pp. 2155-2165
Two different methods for treating an acid wastewater from lead-zinc p
rocessing industry are compared. The results obtained show that chemic
al treatment (neutralization alkalization and precipitation by means o
f NaOH addition) is a better method than electrochemical treatment wit
h Fe electrodes for the heavy metal ions' diminution, in the case when
the initial heavy metal concentrations are relatively law.
