Valmet's target is to enable 100 percent carbon neutral production for all its pulp and paper customers by 2030 by developing new process technologies. Valmet is also committed to improving the energy efficiency of its current offering by 20 percent. Only two years after the ambitious targets were introduced, they have been partly achieved.
Greater energy efficiency, alternative fuel sources, and carbon capture are three top ways to achieve these goals. A 3D rendering of the mill project site. ... Suzano's new, US$2.8 billion pulp plant— known as the Cerrado Project—is being built in Brazil's municipality of Ribas do Rio Pardo in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. It will be ...

This paper describes the process issues and computer aids for designing leaching and CIP/CIL circuits for gold recovery. It does not address the calculation of air required for …
There are no major innovations in any of these plants. In fact, Australia is really only beginning to get started in CIP research and in process and design
Carbon-in-pulp and carbon-in-leach are continuous processes that have been wide used in gold extraction plants. These processes occur in a cascade of larger agitated tanks, and the carbon …
The carbon-in-leach process integrates leaching and carbon-in-pulp into a single unit process operation in which the leach tanks are fitted with carbon retention screens and the carbon-in-pulp tanks are eliminated. ... is designed for gold recovery processes and is used by gold plants all over the world. Our products provide excellent ...
This operation takes place in five circular tanks that provide a total pulp retention time of 5.5 hours. The carbon advances countercurrently to the pulp. The carbon is maintained in suspension in the pulp by an internal air-lift and mechanical agitation of the pulp, either with rakes or with axial flow propellers.
The Lapa ore body is owned by Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited that operates gold mines in Canada, Finland and Mexico. The location of the Lapa ore body is indicated on the map of Fig. 1.The ore consists mainly of quartz, talc and carbonates (Zhou, 2003).The sulphides content is usually below 1.3% with the main sulphides being pyrite, …
In the CIL (Carbon in Leach) or CIP (Carbon in Pulp) plants while the precious metals are being dissolved by the cyanide solution in the large volume tanks the dissolved metals are adsorbed by the ...
The gold CIP process includes seven operation stages: preparation of leaching pulp, cyanide leaching, carbon adsorption, gold-loaded carbon desorption, electrolysis to obtain muddy gold, de-gold carbon recycling, …
Carbon-in-pulp processes in South Africa. Hydrometallurgy, 13 : 169-- 192. The carbon-in-pulp (CIP) process is now well established in the South African gold industry, with a total of over 1 million metric tons of material being treated each month in …
Carbon-in-Leach (CIL) process is widely used in the mining industry and in particular, it is an integral part of gold extraction plant. CIL circuit is a process of continuous leaching of gold from ore to liquid and counter-current adsorption of gold from liquid to carbon particles in a series of tanks.
Read Part 2 of this paper: Increasing cogeneration in Canadian pulp and paper mills: Part 2 – New installations in non-kraft mills. Abstract. With Canada's 2050 net-zero emissions target, pulp mills must adapt to increased carbon taxes, potentially higher biomass costs, and the possibility of becoming a negative emissions industry.
In the carbon-in-pulp process activated carbon is mixed with a ground ore plus water slurry in which gold and silver cyanides are dissolved. After the precious metals are adsorbed onto the carbon, the loaded carbon is separated from the pulp and stripped. The barren pulp is disposed of as tailings …
Recent construction of a carbon-in-leach plant has allowed for an increase in the resource base. The project scope for Lycopodium included development of the treatment plant, associated services, starter and permanent camp and infrastructure.
Activated carbon that is used to purify water upstream of a carbon-in-pulp (CIP) process—by capturing organic compounds that are likely to foul the carbon in the CIP reactors— needs periodic thermal …
Three key areas of C.I.P. plant design, viz. leach- ing time, adsorption and the gold loading on the carbon, are discussed and illustrated with examples. The need for accurate pilot plant data for use in assessing and optimising design is emphasized. This approach should minimize capital and maximise return on capital. It is demonstrated that, as regards …

gold plant will be that of the leaching and carbon-in-pulp circuit (CIP). The reagent and utilities operating costs associated with leaching, adsorption, elution and regeneration would typically make up some 15% of total operating cost, whilst the capital costs associated with these areas is about 16% of the total. Although not largest (capital and
Carbon in the column, carbon in pulp, and carbon in leach all use coconut shell GAC (granulated activated carbon) because of its exceptional hardness and high surface area. The Recovery Process. Water and calcium, sodium, or potassium cyanide are added to scraps or ore to create a slurry. The gold present will leach out and mix with the ...
Australis Mining N.L. operates a continuous mode carbon-in-pulp (CIP) gold plant, processing sand and slime tailings from previous gold mining operations in the Norseman area. Plant design is that of conventional countercurrent contact between pregnant pulp and activated carbon. Gold desorption is achieved by the Zadra process using near …
Carbon-In-Leach. Carbon-in-leach combines leaching with the carbon-in-pulp process, creating a single unit process operation. Usually this method is chosen when native carbon (a high organics load) is present in the gold ore, …
