A method for adsorbing and recovering a fluorine-containing emulsifier at a high recovery from coagulation waste water of a fluoropolymer, is presented. An inorganic acid is added to coagulation waste water of a fluoropolymer containing a fluorine-containing emulsifier, to adjust the pH of the waste water to a level of at least 1 and less than 6, then a metal chloride having a solubility of at least 5 mass% in water at 25 DEG C, or a hydrate of the metal chloride, is added to the waste water, to coagulate and remove a solid content and/or a substance convertible to a solid content, contained in the waste water, and then the waste water is contacted to a weakly basic anion exchange resin. |
