Abstract
The choice of the method of demercurization for the subsequent secondary use of mercury-containing waste
Incoming article date: 20.06.2018The article deals with topical issues of mercury waste disposal. The analysis of the possibility of secondary use of demercurized cullet under the condition of maximum extraction of mercury concentrate. On the basis of physical and chemical properties of mercury, a comparison of two methods of demercurization, during which it was found that the technology of thermal demercurization will reduce the percentage of remaining mercury in cullet.
