Kinetics of Natural Detoxification of Hydrogen Cyanide Contained In Retted Cassava Roots

This work presents the kinetics of natural detoxification of hydrogen cyanide contained in retted cassava roots. Retting is traditional fermentation of cassava, performed to soften the roots. During retting, cyanide diffuses into water used for the retting. The fresh cassava roots (bitter and sweet...
