As part of the development of equipment and innovative technology for the process flow-sheet, a study on the selection of good resin for uranium uptake is ongoing. Both static and dynamic column equilibrium testing upon synthetic and Gattar pregnant leach solutions (PLS) were carried out to estimate the change of total capacity and breakthrough capacity of the commercial macroporous anion excha...

Indonesia is a country that has abundant mineral resources, including nickel resources in laterite ore. Nickel demand risen significantly because of the need for precursors battery production. can be processed via hydrometallurgical route to obtain precursor by leaching ore with an acid solution produce nickel-rich or Pregnant Leach Solutions (PLS). This then precipitation base make its hydroxi...

Cause Cyanide poisoning of birds is caused by exposure to cyanide in two forms: inorganic salts and hydrogen cyanide gas (HCN). Two sources of cyanide have been associated with bird mortalities: gold and silver mines that use cyanide in the extraction process and a predator control device called the M-44 sodium cyanide ejector, which uses cyanide as the toxic agent. Most of the cyanide mortalit...

In this study, a hydrometallurgical treatment involving the solvent extraction and recovery of some heavy metals from a sulphuric acid leach solution of galvanic sludge, using di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) and bis-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)-phosphinic acid (Cyanex 272), both diluted in kerosene, has been investigated. The preliminary tests revealed the necessity to remove other metal ...

In copper heap leaching structures, the ore is leached by an acidic solution. After dissolving the ore mineral, the heap is drained off in the acidic solution using a drainage system (consisting of a network of perforated polyethylene pipes and gravelly drainage layers) and is, then, transferred to the leaching plant for copper extraction where the copper is extracted and the remaining solution...

Ion exchange resins were investigated for the effective recovery of platinum, palladium, and gold from a pregnant cyanide heap leach solution. Screening results indicated that strong-base anion exchange resins proved to be most effective in the recovery of these metal cyanides. Gold was selectively recovered with the use of Minix, while effective recovery of gold, platinum, and palladium over t...

In this study, a zinc plant purification cake (CINKUR Co. Turkey) was leached with sulphuric acid and an acidic leach solution containing Zn(II), Fe(II), Pb(II), Al(III), Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) ions was obtained. After purification, ammonium thiocyanate and water were added to the remaining leach solution containing Co(II) and Ni(II) ions to adjust the chemical media and ion concentration. T...

A flowsheet was developed to extract mixed Rare Earth Elements (REEs) from an aqueous solution generated by nitric acid leaching of apatite concentrate. In this study, Platanus orientalis (P. orientalis) leaf powder employed in the biosorption process purify pregnant leach solution. The sorption and desorption processes were investigated optimized. results demonstrated successful extraction REE...

Wireless sensor network comprises of small sensor nodes with limited resources. Clustered networks have been proposed in many researches to reduce the power consumption in sensor networks. LEACH is one of the most interested techniques that offer an efficient way to minimize the power consumption in sensor networks. However, due to the characteristics of restricted resources and operation in a ...
