Abstract
The kinetics of the electrolytic oxidation of cyanide to cyanate on PbO2-co ated stainless steel anodes has been studied by both experimental and theor etical means. The anodes were based on 316 stainless steel and performed in a satisfactory fashion. The studied KCN solutions exhibited a constant pH = 11 value. Values for all the kinetic parameters have been determined and a rate law for the studied reaction is proposed.
