  • Waste treatment process
    Patent number: 9272936
    Abstract: A process for treating waste includes reacting an organic feedstock in a reactor. The organic feedstock is part of a reaction mixture that includes a first oxidizing acid (e.g., sulfuric acid) and nitric acid. The weight ratio of solids in the organic feedstock to the total of the first oxidizing acid and the nitric acid is at least 0.2. The weight ratio of solids in the organic feedstock to the first oxidizing acid is at least 0.3. The weight ratio of solids in the organic feedstock to the nitric acid is at least 0.5.
    Type: Grant

  • WASTE TREATMENT PROCESS
    Publication number: 20120080383
    Abstract: A process for treating waste includes reacting a feedstock in a reactor to form an effluent. The feedstock is part of a reaction mixture that includes sulfuric and nitric acid. The effluent is separated into a liquid fraction and a solid fraction. Heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, mercury, molybdenum, and/or selenium are removed from the liquid fraction to form a cleaned liquid fraction. The reaction mixture, excluding solids, includes no more than 7.5 wt % of the total of the first oxidizing acid and the nitric acid.
