A method for recovering hydrochloric acid and metal oxides from a chloride liquor is described. The method comprises: providing a chloride liquor including the metal and mixing the liquor and a matrix solution to produce a reaction mixture, wherein the matrix solution assists oxidation / hydrolysis of the metal with HCl production. In a preferred embodiment the matrix solution comprises zinc chloride in various stages of hydration and an oxygen containing gas is added to the mix. Therefore, the present invention discloses a method where the improvement is the mixing of a liquor and a matrix solution where the solution assists hydrolysis of the metal with HCl production. The reactor is a column reactor in a preferred embodiment. The use of the matrix solution and a reactor for recovering hydrochloric acid and for oxidizing/hydrolysis of a metal is also disclosed. |
