Abstract
This patent relates to the mineral waste treatment of the phosphate chemical industry, namely, treatments of hexafluorosilicic acid solutions formed specifically during the process of producing phosphoric acid with hydrogen fluoride. The method for obtaining hydrogen fluoride from hexafluorosilicic acid includes neutralizing the HSA solution with an alkaline agent, yielding a solid salt from the suspension, processing the salt in a fire of a hydrogen-containing fuel and an oxygen-containing oxidant, cooling the combustion products, eliminating the silicon dioxide from these products, condensing the hydrogen fluoride and water, and subsequently extracting the hydrogen fluoride.
