Abstract

A method of treating a gas based on fluorine and containing hydrofluoric acid, and which may optionally contain condensable gaseous compounds, especially uranium compounds, and non-condensable gases. The gas is refrigerated to obtain a gaseous component containing fluorine and any non-condensable gases present, and a liquid phase containing liquid HF and condensable compounds in solution and/or suspension. The liquid phase is filtered to recover the compounds in suspension.
