Cyanide is any substance that contains a specific type of carbon-nitrogen anion group. This can include free cyanide anions (CN–), as well as a number of different compounds, such as potassium cyanide (KCN), cyanogen chloride (CNCl), and many others. While these various cyanide species have different chemical characteristics, all forms of cyanide are considered toxic and are therefore subject to strict regulatory guidelines in many nations across the globe. In short, if your industrial facility deals with any type of cyanide, you’ll likely need to take steps to monitor and treat wastewater to ensure that cyanide levels remain below legal limits.

What are the best technologies for removing cyanide from wastewater?

• Chemical precipitation
• Adsorption
• Ion exchange
• Membrane separation
• Destruction/Oxidation
