Abstract

See full text

A process for treating waste water containing hydrofluoric acid, mixed acid etchant waste, dissolved silica, and solid particles is provided. This process involves adjusting the pH of the waste water to about 7 or above, filtering the waste water to remove solid particles, adding an anti-scalant to the waste water, and feeding the waste water through a reverse osmosis membrane. The reverse osmosis membrane separates the waste water into a permeate stream, which is the product, and a reject stream. Another aspect of the present invention is a system for performing this process.
