Abstract

Method for producing an industrial aqueous sodium chloride solution (22) in which an aqueous solution of sodium chloride (20) containing polyvalent metals and constituting a mother liquor obtained from the precipitation (14) of hydroxides of said metals from an aqueous solution (6) of hydrochloric acid is obtained from washing (3,4) fumes (1) containing hydrogen chloride and originating from the oxidation of chlorinated products, is treated on a chelating Na-type resin. The aqueous sodium chloride solution obtained in this manner has applications in the production of aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions by means of electrolysis or electrodialysis and in the production of sodium chloride crystals by means of evaporation.
