The invention concerns a method and a device for the selective extraction of the halide ions from photographic baths. According to the invention, the solutions to be treated are subjected to a first nanofiltration step 2 in diafiltration mode, then to a second nanofiltration step 3 in concentration mode. The method makes it possible to prolong the activity of the fixing or bleaching/fixing baths during the processing of photographic products.
