Carbon-in-Pulp (CIP) Overview
Gold Recovery Carbon · CIP
YX & NS Series Carbon Application
YX & NS series activated carbon capture gold from cyanide leach slurry, balancing loading capacity, abrasion resistance and carbon transfer rate.
APPLICATION DETAIL
YX & NS series activated carbon capture gold from cyanide leach slurry, balancing loading capacity, abrasion resistance and carbon transfer rate.
In the carbon-in-pulp (CIP) process, leached slurry passes through a series of adsorption tanks where coconut shell activated carbon captures dissolved gold. YX-carbon carbon combines high iodine value, hardness and consistent particle size to support large-scale plants, reduce attrition and carbon loss, and enable multiple elution and regeneration cycles.
Key Benefits
- High gold loading capacity and fast adsorption kinetics
- High hardness and low abrasion for multi-stage adsorption tanks
- Consistent particle size for screening and carbon transfer
- G11 and G12 activity grades can be selected to suit slurry conditions
