ABSTRACT:
A method of treating liquid wastes containing heavy metal chelate compounds which comprises reducing the pH of liquid wastes containing the heavey metal chelate compounds to 4 or less, adding iron polysulfate or at least one heavy metal ion selected from a source of Fe.sup.++, Fe.sup.+++, Cu.sup.++, Ni.sup.++ and Zn.sup.++ other than the iron polysulfate to form an iron chelate compound, then forming a solution containing Ca.sup.++ ions at pH 9 or more, and flocculating to precipitate thereby separating the resulting heavy metal hydroxides. The method gives a high heavy metal and COD removal rates, as well as showing good separability for flocks upon flocculating treatment.
