333 kg Of 70% strength sulfuric acid is initially introduced into an enamel kettle and 100 kg of a waste melamine which contains ammeline and ammelide and has a melamine content of about 95% is added, with stirring, the temperature rising to about 90° C. This suspension is heated to the boiling point of 132° C. and is then heated up to 160° C. in the course of one hour, whilst distilling off water. The suspension is kept at the boil under reflux, at 160° C. for 4 hours and 310 l. of water is then added, the temperature falling to 120° C. After cooling to room temperature, the cyanuric acid is centrifuged off, washed and suspended in water, using a weight ratio of 1 part of cyanuric acid to 2 parts of water, the suspension is stirred for one hour at room temperature and the cyanuric acid is centrifuged off and washed. About 96 kg. (93.9%) of a cyanuric acid with an ammelide content of less than 0.3% is obtained. The ammonium bisulfate impurity amounts to about 0.03%. Melamine and ammeline are not detectable.
