This invention relates primarily to a waste water treatment and recycling system for an electroplating line. Electroplating lines typically produce waste products which may be defined as environmentally hazardous. The present invention provides for a system of complete recycling of such wastes from an electroplating line which includes (I) a plurality of treatment stations, where each station consists of a treatment tank and a rinse tank, and (II) means for sequentially moving metallic parts for treatment therein from a treatment tank and a rinse tank of a first treatment station, to a treatment tank and rinse tank of a second treatment station. Characteristic features of the waste water treatment and recovery system include the steps of (a) collecting and transferring overflow solution from each rinse tank to a vacuum chamber, where the overflow solution contains chemical constituents from its prior treatment tank, (b) vaporizing the overflow solution, (c) condensing the vapors thereof and storing the condensate for return to the several treatment stations, (d) collecting the chemical constituents as a residue of said overflow solution, and (e) retaining the residue until a predetermined concentration of the chemical constituents is achieved, and transferring the residue to its corresponding treatment tank, whereby the electroplating system is fully recyclable without creating waste product.
