Precious Metal Recovery
Activated carbon is plays an important role in mining applications
Particularly in gold recovery, activated carbon is the key element in CIC, CIL and CIP processes
As a major manufacturer of activated carbon specialized for the gold mining industry and precious metals recovery, we service some of the world's largest mining companies.
Mining operations must keep output high despite ever-diminishing supplies of high-quality ore; plants must control operating costs while maintaining environmental responsibility. Profitability can be crucially affected by rates of recovery, plant performance and reliable supply lines.
High-quality activated carbon is vital to the gold extraction operation. Using activated carbon of optimal hardness minimizes fines and recovers more gold.
By maximizing the efficiency of your gold recovery process, Carbon Activated products and services help maintain your bottom line.
Use the best carbon for the best recovery
The critical test for activated carbon is how well it keeps its properties after months of use and reuse. By using the most durable coconut feedstock, to withstand the rigorous carbonization and activation process, we can consistently manufacturing quality activated carbon for gold extraction.
We manufacture products that are used extensively in Carbon in Column (CIC), Carbon in Pulp (CIP) and Carbon in Leach (CIL) applications.
It is essential that these precious metals are recovered in the safest ways. Our activated carbon is made from high-quality coconut shells of exceptional carbonaceous hardness.
The carbonization and activation process imbues it with properties for longevity during the continuous regeneration of gold recovery circuits. A low rate of attrition during the absorption circuit is the gold recovery rate.
Our Gold Standard For Carbon
Carbon Activated Corporations’ products meet and surpass gold recovery industry standards. Our modern manufacturing plants provide high-quality activated carbon products for immediate delivery around the world.
Our special range of products benefit the gold recovery process through:
