Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in this method, there is a problem that since the cathode portion and the slurry are separated by the filter material, interstitial water flows from the anode side through the filter material to the cathode side, and the slurry cannot be reduced by the reduction potential of the cathode, On the contrary, sometimes there is a high possibility that the oxidation potential of the anode is maintained in an oxidizing atmosphere
[0007] However, in this method, there is a problem that the slurry cannot be kept in a reducing atmosphere due to the influence of chlorine gas, oxygen, etc. middle
[0009] However, even in this method, since no reduction potential is applied during the acid extraction, the fraction forming the above-mentioned insoluble adhesion form cannot be effectively extracted, and the concentration of heavy metals in the incineration ash cannot be sufficiently reduced.
[0010] In addition, in this method, there is also the following problem: the extraction of heavy metals into the solution and the separation from the aqueous solution cannot be carried out at the same time, but must be carried out in two stages, so the concentration of heavy metals in the aqueous solution increases during the extraction stage, especially Heavy metal salts with small solubility products cannot be completely dissolved
Furthermore, there is also the following problem: since the solid-liquid separation is performed in a state where heavy metals of high concentration are dissolved in the interstitial water, the heavy metals contained in the remaining interstitial water (sludge) cannot be removed from the incineration ash after the solid-liquid separation. remove
[0012] In addition, in these methods, there is a problem that in order to sufficiently dissolve heavy metals, the volume of the liquid phase as a solvent must be large due to the restriction of the solubility product as a poorly soluble substance, and as a result, the overall volume of the processing device becomes large. , it is difficult to miniaturize the device

Abstract

A clarification method and apparatus, which can reliably remove heavy metals, including their sparingly soluble fractions, from a contaminated solid material containing the heavy metals, such as soil, sludge, sediments, wastes, or incineration ash, are provided. A reaction vessel 2 is divided into an anode zone 10 containing an anode A, and a cathode zone 20 containing a cathode C, by a diaphragm M provided between the anode A and the cathode C. The cathode zone 20 is supplied with a contaminated solid material containing heavy metals via a contaminated solid material supply means 22, an acidic substance or an alkaline substance via an acidic substance or alkaline substance supply means 24, and in some cases, water via a water supply means 26. A slurry of their mixture is maintained in the condition of a reducing atmosphere and a strongly acidic or strongly alkaline atmosphere to dissolve the heavy metals and electrolytically deposit the heavy metals on the surface of the cathode, thereby separating the heavy metals from the contaminated solid material and interstitial water.
