Sodium sulphide is one of the oldest known metal precipitants used in industrial waste water treatment in electroplating. Traditionally, sodium sulphide is often used for galvanizing, but also for copper plating in the printed circuit board sector. Whenever pure hydroxide precipitation is not sufficient, sulphides that produce metal salts with very low residual solubility are used. (...)

This wastewater from the production process, when stripping the resist film from the printed circuit board, produced sludge that was extremely difficult to dewater, causing the downstream chamber filter press to become clogged within a very short time and requiring extensive cleaning every two days. In addition, there were always wastewater batches with residual turbidity, which meant that the treatment had to be repeated and took a lot of time. (...)
