Sodium Cyanide Plants (Liquid and Solid) at Kwinana and Transport of Sodium Cyanide by Road and Rail from Kwinana

Project
Proponent: 
Australian Gold Reagents Pty Ltd
Proposal description: 

Australian Gold Reagents Pty Ltd propose to increase production at the existing Kwinana sodium cyanide liquid plant from 91,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) to a total of 110,000 tpa;  and to increase production of solid sodium cyanide from 45,000 tpa up to 60,000 tpa. 

The proposal also includes connecting the two existing thermal combustion units to allow waste gas from either plant during down time to be directed through a combined header to the operational thermal combustion unit for effective management of waste gas.  

The Sodium Cyanide Facility is located within the CSBP Kwinana Industrial Complex in the Kwinana Industrial Area, approximately 40 kilometres south of Perth.
