Neutralizing pH
I am our facility’s environmental, health and safety manager. Periodically, we have very high-pH wastewaters that cause the pH within the cyanide oxidation step to be well above our desired upper limit of 11. Our operator has requested that we add sulfuric acid into the cyanide oxidation stage whenever the pH rises above 11. I am very concerned about the release of hydrogen cyanide if something goes wrong and the system accidentally drives the pH well below 7. Are there any safer acid substitutes?
