"Determining an effective operating window for a thiocyanate-degrading mixed microbial community" - A.Wynand van Zyl, Susan T.L. Harrison, Robert P. van Hille
- SCN− effluent is generated during gold production
- Biological ASTER™ process developed to treat this process water
- Desire to broaden the commercial application
- Biodegradation of SCN− by mixed microbial community assessed
- Effect of SCN− concentration, temperature and pH explored
- Helped establish an effective operating window for the ASTER™ process
