Abstract: A process designed to obtain potassium sulfate from vinasse where such vinasse is mainly obtained as a by-product of ethyl alcohol and the like production distilleries. Such process consists in concentrating vinasse dry solids for their subsequent combustion in a recovery boiler and to obtain electric power by activating a vapor turbine and at the same time recover the melted minerals from the boiler floor to obtain a chemical conversion reaction from carbonates to sulfates. Such reactions produce mainly Potassium sulfate in economic and technically sustainable production rates. Moreover, this process neutralizes the harmful effects of the vinasse polluting residue.
