When found in many common compounds as well as when adsorbed in soil and sludge mercury is transformed into the elemental form by heating to 280°C in an aqueous environment. This process is thought to pass through a hydrolysis to HgO followed by a dissociation into Hg and O. Understanding this process may facilitate the removal of mercury from polluted material in two ways, namely 1) Volatilization with steam of the hydrothermally formed Hg0, and 2) Amalgamation with certain other metals, which appear in gilded computer scrap, liquid tin and aluminum chips. |
