Used hypo solution should be processed to recover the maximum amount of silver from the solution, consistent with overall economic feasibility and environmental considerations.

Various types and sizes of equipment using metallic replacement or electrolytic methods of recovery are available which permit economic silver recovery from both large and small quantities of used hypo solution.
