The Chemical Effect Of Ultrasound On Cyanide Solutions, Nabil R. Zaki
Theses
An experimental study was undertaken to investigate the chemical effects of high intensity ultrasonic radiation on cyanide solutions. The effects of aeration, concentration of cyanide and temperatures on the reaction rate are investigated. The experiment was preformed in a 30 mm pyrex tube immersed at a fixed height in a constant volume water bath. Ultrasonic energy was applied through the use of a transducer epoxied at the bottom of the water bath. The power inputs to the transducer were 40W (27KHz) and 100W (21KHz).
At a power of 40W, ultrasound had no chemical effect on cyanide solutions. At 100W, hydrogen …
