ABSTRACT
With CaCO3 component made up to 95% (Davis T.A et al., 2000), oyster shells are similar in composition with limestone.
The objective of this research is to present the capability of oyster shells in treating acidic wastewater from Thanh Thuy
metal craft village. Based on jar test experiments to find the optimum conditions for the process including: dimension of
shells, calcination time, calcination temperature, volume of shells and exposure time. The experimental results were
demonstrated that: shells sized from 2 to 5 centimeters; calcinated in 6000C in 1 hour, brought up better efficiency to acidic
wastewater treatment. According to above conditions, researcher found the optimum shells volume, exposure time to
check the correctness of the experiments about increasing pH and reducing color, iron in wastewater. Oyster shells have
implications in environmental protection, treatment cost saving and contributing the diversity of natural resources.

In the scope of this report, the research object was to use
oyster shells as instrument in treating acidic waste water.
The water treating experiment was conducted by using
neutralize method with oyster shells. The preliminary
treatment process for oyster shells in order were: wash,
dry, heat. Samples from the process were gathered and
distinguished by lattice screen, which divided into three
types based on size: (type 1: from 1-2 cm, noted as L1; type
2: from 2-5 cm, noted as L2; type 3: original size (>5 cm),
noted as L3). Afterwards,oyster shells were calcinated in
kiln, then allocated in dry-cabinet and cooling to reach
room temperature. Figure 2: Dimensions affect to the interface
