Description:   Cyanide was reviewed because of its toxicity.  The metal finishing and electroplating companies had frequently employed cyanide for their processes.  The stoichiometry of the chlorination reaction for cyanide oxidation was explained.  An analysis of the immitation sodium cyanide, brass plating and copper plating rinse water treatments were outlined.  Data was presented for each test performed and for cyanate hydrolysis and cyanate oxidation.  The batch cyanide treatment and conclusions for the tests were discussed.
