Waste containing cyanide

The problem of waste containing cyanide is extremely relevant in the modern world. Cyanide compounds are widely used in industry, in particular in the mining, metallurgical and chemical industries. However, improper handling of cyanide-containing waste can lead to serious environmental and health problems. In this article, we will consider in detail the problem of waste containing cyanide, their impact on the environment and people, as well as methods of reducing their harm.

Cyanide-containing wastes are generated during various industrial operations. The most common source is the mining industry, where cyanide is used to extract gold and silver from ore. This process, known as cyanide leaching, results in the generation of significant amounts of cyanide-containing waste.

Cyanide compounds are also used in metallurgy to remove impurities from metals and in the chemical industry to produce various chemicals. All these processes generate waste that requires special management due to its dangerousness.

The main problem is that cyanide is a highly toxic substance that can spread rapidly in the environment if proper measures are not taken to store and handle it. This creates serious threats to water resources, soils, plants and animals.

Cyanide-containing waste. Code according to the National list of waste 11 03 01*. Operations in accordance with Annexes 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine "On Waste Management" D3, D15.

To reduce the damage caused by cyanide-containing wastes, a comprehensive approach that includes both technological and organizational measures is necessary. The main areas of harm reduction include:

• application of modern technologies for processing waste containing cyanide;
• regular monitoring of the state of waste and its impact on the environment;
• training of employees and the public on safe waste management;
• implementation of the control and reporting system for the management of hazardous waste containing cyanide;
• creating special landfills for storing waste containing cyanide (D3).

Environmental management of hazardous waste containing cyanide involves the use of modern technologies, such as biological treatment, chemical neutralization and other methods that allow reducing the toxicity of waste to a safe level.

Also an important aspect is the correct organization of operations for collection, sorting, crushing and processing of hazardous waste containing cyanide. This includes the use of special equipment and technologies that minimize the risks of cyanide leakage and distribution into the environment.
