Activated carbon gold extraction
21 May , 2021
Activated carbon gold extraction: the king of gold loading and efficiency
Core parameters:
Gold loading ≥300g/ton (coconut shell carbon micropore adsorption of gold cyanide complex)
Compressive strength ≥95% (reduce powder loss)
Desorption rate ≥99.9% (NaOH+sodium cyanide high temperature desorption)
Case: A gold mine in South Africa uses 8×30 mesh coconut shell carbon, and the recovery rate is increased to 94.5%, with an annual revenue of $72 million.
Advantages: low cost (processing fee of ¥200 per ton), wear resistance, and can be regenerated 5 times.
