Abstract: A process for the production of sodium cyanide crystals comprising; (a) contacting impure hydrogen cyanide and sodium hydroxide in a reactor with mixing for a maximum contact time of about 5 seconds; (b) feeding the resulting mixture to a continuous evaporative crystallizer to produce a slurry of sodium cyanide crystals; (c) passing the slurry of sodium cyanide crystals from the crystallizer over a hot surface to precipitate onto the surface and remove sodium carbonate, and passing said slurry back to the crystallizer; and (d) separating the sodium cyanide crystals from the slurry.
