Hydrofluoric Acid Contamination Treatment

We are having 2 to 5% of HF contamination in our effluent water, which we want to remove/convert and reuse the same.
Welcome all your suggestions

Your question is a bit vague, Mr. Annadurai. 100 gallons per week or per second? How did it get the hydrofluoric acid in it, what else is in it, and in what way do you want to re-use it? Thanks!

Mr Annadurai,

The solution to your problem is to find a local company that installs Reverse Osmosis equipment. Tamil Nadu State Pollution Control Board has a consultancy advisory too in Chennai.
