Abstract
Computed results are reported on the oxidation of KCN particles carried by blast furnace gas through the stack region of the furnace. The calculations were performed on the assumption that the oxidation process is mass transfer controlled, but proper allowance was made for the variable CO/CO2 ratios and temperatures to which the particles are exposed during their passage through the stack. The results of these calculations show that for cyanide particles in the range 0.02 to 0.1 cm in diameter the system may be extremely sensitive both to the temperature profiles and to the CO/CO2 ratios within the stack; thus the control of these parameters could provide a means of controlling cyanide emissions.
