A pilot plant scale reactor was modelled and assembled to experimentally study the cyanide elimination process. The process was performed by using Ca(OCl)2, Cl2 and H2O2. The elimination was optimized at 25 degrees C for time of reaction, pH and amount of oxidant in a pilot plant scale reactor with synthetic solutions. Moreover some tests were carried out by using a real effluent deriving from a gold production industry.
