In a method of and apparatus for recovering mercury from drainage, mercury-containing waste water is fed into a first treating tank where the waste water is heated together with a metal having a stronger ionizing tendency than mercury, to reduce mercury ions in the waste water and free the mercury ions as metallic mercury. The solution under treatment is then transferred to a second treating tank where the solution is alkalinized, and mercury ions remaining in the solution is reduced by means of a water soluble metallic salt having a stronger ionizing tendency than mercury, to free the mercury ions as metallic mercury. Mercury vapor containing gases generating from the first and second treating tanks are cooled in a cooling device, and condensed and liquefied mercury is collected in a gas-liquid separator. Exhaust gas generating from the gas-liquid separator is fed into the solution under treatment in the second treating tank.
