Description: Abstract: A treatment system for a wastewater includes an electrolytic reactor, which has a first chamber. A second chamber and a conduit. The first chamber is configured for accumulating the wastewater entering therein. The second chamber has a pair of electrodes configured to produce an electric field. The conduit is configured to connect the first chamber to the second shamber. The system is configured such that a follow of the wastewater through the electric field is substantially laminar. The treatment system also includes a precious metal recover system as well as various filtration and sedimentation apparatuses including s semi-permeable envelope filter.
