Definitions

  • the purpose of the subject invention is to provide a method of purification of the waste water from preferably photographic labora ⁇ tories and for recovery of silver therefrom as well as of other metals, the method being both efficient and inexpensive compared with prior-art methods.
  • This purpose is achieved in accordance with the invention by collecting the waste water from all film processing stages in a collection container, when a predetermined amount of liquid has been collected in said container, transferring said liquid to a compression chamber and passing it through a number of a filters operating on the principle of reversed osmosis, channelling liquid from which the metal ions have been removed into a sewage while the concentrate present in the compression chamber is disharged at regular intervals into a collection tank to be transferred for further processing to recover metals present in the concentrate.
  • the invention also concerns an apparatus for performing the method of purifying waste water containing heavy metals, said apparatus comprising a collection container from which a liquid pipe leads to a compression chamber which is fitted with filters operating on the principle of reversed osmosis, said compression chamber having an outlet through which is dicharged water from which heavymetal ions have been removed, and a line connecting said chamber with a collection tank for collection therein of the concentrate of heavy metal ions.
  • Waste water is conducted from a laboratory 1 through a pipe 2 to a collection container 3 in which all waste water is collected, such as fixing solutions, developing solutions and rinsing baths.
  • waste water is collected in the con ⁇ tainer 3, for instance 25 - 30 litres, it is supplied to a compression chamber 4 which in the embodiment illustrated herein is equipped with three filters 5, 6 and 7 operating on the principle of reversed os- mosis.
  • the de- metallized water is supplied through a line 8 to a sewage pipe.
  • the concentrate which remains inside the compression chamber 4 is supplied via a line 9 to a collection tank 10 in which the concentrate is collected.
  • the tank 10 After a predetermined number of processing operations the tank 10 is sufficiently filled to be emptied or replaced by an empty tank and thereafter be transported to a plant in which its contents are further processed. In the case of laboratories of normal capacity the collection tank 10 probably will need to be removed for further processing of its contents at appr. monthly intervals.
  • the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown herein but a number of modifications are possible within the the scope of the appended claims. For instance, it is quite possible to vary the number of filters used in dependence on the desired or required degree of purification and to a certain extent on the composition of the salts present in the waste water. It should be obvious that the waste water may be subjected to other purification processes for removal of other salts than those containing ions of heavy metals.
  • the compression chamber may be provided with windows to allow monitoring of the condition of the filters.

Abstract

Procédé et appareil pour la purification d'eaux usées contenant des ions de métaux lourds. Grâce à l'utilisation de filtres (5, 6, 7) agissant selon le principe de l'osmose inverse, les eaux usées sont purifiées et le concentré résultant est une solution de sels pouvant être recueillie (10) en vue d'un traitement continu permettant la récupération des métaux.
