The 20 kHz sonochemical degradation of trace cyanide and dye stuffs in aqueous media

Cyanide in alkaline aqueous solution is reported to be destroyed by a facile sonochemical process. In the presence of power ultrasound emitted from a horn probe with a frequency of 20 kHz and up to 60 W cm-2 intensity a decay in the concentration with first order kinetics is monitored by ion selecti...
