Background and purpose: Cyanide is a species of high toxicity that is found mostly in industrial effluents such as electroplating, metal mining, metallurgy and metal cleaning processes. Entrance of it to existing environment contains a hazardous to health. The purpose of this study was to compare efficiency of both sonochemical and sonochemical / hydrogen peroxide processes for cyanide rem...

  Background & Aims : Right branch of Sarugh River is the main river in Takab city, north western Iran, which is located at downstream of present gold extraction plants. Cyanide leak aging from tailings dams of plants is a serious threat to the health of river. This study was conducted to evaluate Cyanide concentration and transferring cyanide to the river.   Materials & Methods : In this cross...

Background and Objective: In the field of environmental risk assessment, Cyanide is one of the most important pollutants of water, soil and air that has an important impact on the ecosystem and environment of the contaminated area. Therefore, the present study aimed to prove the biological effectiveness of Vetiveria zizanioides in phytoremediation of soils contaminated with cyanide. Materials ...

Backgrounds and Objectives: Cyanide is a species of high toxicity that found mostly in industrial effluents such as electroplating, metal mining, metallurgy and metal cleaning processes. Intrance of it to Existence enviroment contains very health hazardous. Purpose of this study, efficiency compare of both sonochemical and photosonochemical technologies for cyanide removal from aqueous solution...

Background and purpose: Cyanide (CN-) is of dangerous pollutants in the environment from industries such as electroplating, mining and paint entering into environment. The present study aimed to review the efficiency of cyanide removal by zirconia photocatalytic process with and without hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Materials and methods: This was an applied-fundamental study and was conducted in ...

  Some industrial processes, such as plating and gold mining, utilize cyanide, which entering in their effluents. Because cyanide compounds are toxic contaminants, the waste-containing cyanide must be treated before discharge in the environment. Several methods are available for cyanide removal or detoxification. Natural degradation, alkaline chlorination, and oxidation with hydrogen peroxide a...
