The method detects the cyanides that are free (HCNand CN-) and metal-cyanide complexes that are easily disso-ciated into free cyanide ions. The method does not detect theless toxic strong metal-cyanide complexes, cyanides that

The cyanidecomplexes are dissociated and absorbed into the sodiumhydroxide capture solution, which can be an

Refer to 11.1for sample pretreatment.6.2 Sulfide will diffuse through the gas diffusion membraneand can be detected in the amperometric flowcell.
