Cyanide contamination of soil and water: Sources, toxicity, …
Cyanide can exist in various forms in soil, including free cyanide (HCN and CN −) and metal-cyanide complexes, such as those with iron, copper, and zinc, which can affect the availability of these metals to plants and microorganisms (Anning et al., 2019). Cyanide is generally more mobile and toxic in acidic soils and under anaerobic conditions.

The process involves acidification of the gold plant tailings with sulphuric acid, to lower the pH from around ten to less than seven. Acidification converts the free cyanide to HCN gas, which is then volatilised by passing a vigorous stream of air bubbles through the tailings pulp or solution. The air/HCN gas stream is scrubbed in a caustic ...
