Disclosed herein is a method for producing a recycled hardened material
using waste gypsum. The method comprises treating acidic wastewater
generated in the production of copper, zinc or titanium or the production
of sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) and chlorine using saline water, with
calcium hydroxide (slaked lime), so as to precipitate sludge, and mixing
the precipitated sludge with pulp sludge ashes having pozzolanic
properties.
