The invention provides a waste foundry sand regeneration method, belongs to the field of environment-friendly regeneration, and particularly relates to a recovery method for waste casting materials. According to the waste foundry sand regeneration method, procedures are successive and reasonable, operation is easy and convenient, and the regeneration rate is high. The waste foundry sand regeneration method comprises the steps of (1) breaking of waste foundry sand, (2) roasting, (3) wet stirring, (4) grinding, and (5) winnowing and magnetic separation. According to the waste foundry sand regeneration method, the heating procedure, the wet stirring procedure and the mechanical grinding procedure are more successive and reasonable, sand reclaimed through the method is high in quality, the regeneration rate is high, and thus, the waste foundry sand regeneration method has good technical feasibility and applicability; and by adoption of the waste foundry sand regeneration method, no poisonous and harmful waste is discharged in the treatment process, zero emission is achieved, and the purpose of environmental protection is achieved.
