The aim of this project was to find a recycling route for Prussian white. During the experimental part, one recycling method was tested using sodium hydroxide and from this a method for re-synthesis of Prussian white was conducted as well as a method for re-crystallisation of sodium ferrocyanide. The method that proved most successful was the re-crystallisation of sodium ferrocyanide. Furthermore, the conditions needed to conduct a proper re-synthesis of Prussian white was not available during this research. Therefore, it was not possible to produce Prussian white of the right structure. The analysis was performed through XRD analysis and it was concluded that it is possible to re-crystallise sodium ferrocyanide from Prussian white.
