Zusammenfassung:A method and an arrangement for removing amine(s) from a thickener overflow of a mineral processing plant. The method includes supplying the thickener overflow to an electrocoagulation unit and subjecting the thickener overflow to electrocoagulation in order to separate at least some of the amine(s) as an electrocoagulation overflow and in order to form a residual process water as an electrocoagulation underflow, and removing the electrocoagulation overflow. The method is free of all of the following: a coagulant, a flocculant, an adsorbent and an additional flotation chemical.
