Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020231315A1] A process for separately recovering sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and a sodium coagulation salt, respectively, from an aqueous composition (10) comprising a dissolved sodium coagulation salt and dissolved sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and having a pH of more than 7. The process comprises the steps of: cooling the aqueous composition (10) to precipitate a first portion of the sodium coagulation salt (30), to provide a sodium coagulation salt reduced aqueous composition (11) comprising dissolved sodium hydroxide (NaOH); separating the precipitated, first portion of the sodium coagulation salt (30) from the sodium coagulation salt reduced aqueous composition (11) to provide recovered sodium coagulation salt; evaporating water from the sodium coagulation salt reduced aqueous composition (11), thereby increasing the concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and remaining sodium coagulation salt; and precipitating and separating a second portion of the sodium coagulation salt (12) from the concentrated aqueous composition (12), thereby providing a recovered aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (20).
