This International Standard is applicable to as-received (field-moist) samples and specifies two different procedures for the liberation of cyanide from the soil:

  • direct liberation of hydrogen cyanide using orthophosphoric acid (normative);

  • extraction with sodium hydroxide solution and subsequent liberation using orthophosphoric acid (informative, see AnnexB).

The liberated cyanide is determined either by a photometric method or a titrimetric method using an indicator.

The method is applicable to all types of soil.

Under the conditions specified in this International Standard, the lower limit of application is 0,5mg/kg of total cyanide (expressed on the as-received basis) for photometric determination and 10mg/kg for titrimetric determination.

NOTE Using the alkaline extraction followed by liberation using phosphoric acid, the lower limit of application is 1mg/kg of total cyanide (expressed on the as-received basis) for photometric determination and 30mg/kg for titrimetric determination.
