Abstract: This paper presents neutralization of residual waste waters containing trivalent iron cyanide
complex in alkaline solution by chemical oxidation with hypochlorite. Reactive reagent is sodium hypochlorite with 13% free chlorine and sodium hydroxide, necessary for alkaline pH, 11-12. There are different sources waste waters containing K3[Fe(CN)6]: like: inorganic industries, thermal steel treatment, pigments, photographic industries. The method is based on decomplexation reaction between trivalent iron cyanide complex potassium salt and sodium hypochlorite at 70°C when K 3 [Fe(CN6] become not dangerous red – brown ferric oxihydroxide in form of α FeO(OH). Residual content of total cyanide was determined photometrical according to SR ISO 8466-1, at 578 nm. Efficiency of chemical oxidation was evaluated by chemical volumetric analysis of iron content in FeO(OH) extracted, in the same time with trivalent iron cyanide complex destruction.
Keywords: oxidation, waste waters, chlorine, cyanide
