Examination of Treatment Methods for Cyanide Wastes.

Abstract

A survey of the state of the knowledge for treatment of cyanide wastewater generated at Naval Air Rework Facilities was accomplished. Over 250 journal citations from nine countries were reviewed. Ninety-eight articles, considered germane to Naval problems, were incorporated into the review that evaluated the effectiveness of cyanide waste treatment as related to concentration and destruction techniques. Processes that were reviewed but rejected due to technical infeasibility are also discussed. (Author)
