hospital waste
Good evening,
A small table - under another table referring to hospital waste (type, how much, heating value etc.), containg a heading of 'rigerazione demi' followed by 'HCL 32%' plus weight in kg and kg/mc value. Then NaOH 30% with the same info.
Any ideas on this? I have put a few possibilities into google, but found nothing certain.
Thank you.

regeneration / demineralization
or maybe "regeneration - demineralization"
They are apparently describing the solution used to treat (some kind of) waste material, and several poorly soluble mineral salts can be converted in more soluble compounds by treatment with concentrated HCl, followed by treatment with concentrated NaOH - and the whole might be called a demineralization step or something along these lines...
low confidence, of course. but a long and inspired examination of the whole table might, possibly, support or disprove the suggestion...
