    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuller's_earth

    Fuller's earth is the most common spelling today, but both fullers earth and fullers' earth remain in wide use. [4] Fuller's earth is also known by the following other names: Bleaching clay, [5] probably because fulling whitened the cloth. Whitening clay, particularly when used to treat facial pigmentation, such as melasma.

  4. Hydrochloric acid regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrochloric_acid_regeneration

    The commercially most relevant field of application for HCl regeneration processes is the recovery of HCl from waste pickle liquors from carbon-steel pickling lines. Other applications include the production of metal oxides such as, but not limited, to Al 2 O 3 and MgO, as well as rare-earth oxides, by pyrohydrolysis of aqueous metal chloride or rare-earth chloride solutions.

  5. Waste valorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste_valorization

    Waste valorization, beneficial reuse, beneficial use, value recovery or waste reclamation [1] is the process of waste products or residues from an economic process being valorized (given economic value), by reuse or recycling in order to create economically useful materials.

    The diagram at the right shows a basic one-box model. The reservoir contains the amount of material M under consideration, as defined by chemical, physical or biological properties. The source Q is the flux of material into the reservoir, and the sink S is the flux of material out of the reservoir. The budget is the check and balance of the ...

  7. Closed-loop recycling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_recycling

    By reducing the production and use of raw materials, closed-loop recycling minimizes harm to the environment and discourages resource depletion. [5] In contrast, open-loop recycling is the process by which a product is recycled but has to be mixed with raw materials to become a new product, typically leading to downcycling. [1]
