Activated carbon for gold extraction plays a crucial role in gold smelting, and with its unique adsorption properties, it has become an indispensable material in the gold extraction process. In this paper, Huamei carbon will discuss the advantages, principles, usage and market prospects of activated carbon for gold extraction, to show readers the charm of this amazing material.
Huamei gold extraction with activated carbon mainly coconut shell activated carbon and coal-based activated carbon and other types. Among them, coconut shell activated carbon has a large specific surface area, large microporous volume, fast adsorption speed, large adsorption amount of gold, better abrasion resistance, easy to reactivate and use. Commonly used properties of activated carbon for gold extraction are iodine adsorption value ≥950mg/g, particle size 6-16 mesh ≥90%, strength ≥97%, moisture ≤10%, filling density 450 - 550g/L and so on.
(I) High adsorption performance
Activated carbon for gold extraction is characterized by large specific surface area and large microporous volume. According to the data, the surface area of 1 gram of activated carbon is equivalent to the surface area of a soccer field, and such a large surface area makes activated carbon an ideal adsorbent. Its rich microporous structure is suitable for adsorption of certain inorganic complex ions from solution, including gold-cyanide complex ions. Since the cross-section of the carbon micropores is similar to the diameter of the gold-cyanide complex ions, the gold-cyanide complex ions need to undergo a slow diffusion process to be adsorbed. To enhance the diffusion process, the slurry is stirred sufficiently during the carbon slurry gold extraction process to facilitate the adsorption of gold by the activated carbon. This unique structure makes the activated carbon on the adsorption of gold, can effectively extract gold, play a key role in the gold extraction process.
(ii) Better abrasion resistance
In the carbon slurry process, activated carbon with better abrasion resistance shows greater resistance to abrasion. Activated carbon with greater strength can maintain lower loss under strong impact and grinding. On the other hand, activated carbon with less strength is easy to be abraded and thinned, and finally carries a large amount of adsorbed gold through the interstage sieve and loses with the tailings. For example, the commonly used activated carbon for gold extraction has a strength of ≥97%, which ensures the stability of the activated carbon in the process and reduces the loss of gold.
(iii) Easy to reactivate and utilize
When the activated carbon adsorbs a large number of impurities, it will lose its activity, and at this time, its adsorption capacity can be restored through acid washing, thermal regeneration and other methods. Activated carbon should be acid washed before regeneration to remove organic matter, in order to remove alkali metal oxides. Generally, the deactivated carbon is regenerated to remove organic matter after 3 to 5 cycles of acid washing, and then returned to the activated carbon adsorption section. This reduces the loss of carbon, saves electricity and has no effect on the adsorption rate. Through these methods, the activated carbon can be recycled, reducing the cost of gold extraction.
When selecting activated carbon for gold recovery, key properties such as its strength, saturated gold loading capacity, adsorption speed and resolution rate need to be considered. Activated carbon with greater strength can show greater resistance to abrasion in the carbon slurry process flow and reduce the loss of gold. Activated carbon with high adsorption speed, high saturated gold loading capacity and high resolution rate can increase the efficiency and yield of gold extraction.
Overall, the principle of activated carbon for gold extraction is to realize effective adsorption and extraction of gold through its unique porous structure and chemical properties. This principle provides an efficient, economical and environmentally friendly method for gold smelting.

In the field of waste gas treatment, activated carbon is a widely used adsorption material that can efficiently remove various volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, how much VOC can 1 ton of activated carbon adsorb? The answer to this question is not a simple number, but is influenced by a number of factors. Huamei activated carbon will explore these factors in depth and provide some reference data in practical applications.
The quality of activated carbon is one of the key factors to determine its adsorption capacity. In general, the quality of activated carbon is measured by indicators such as specific surface area and iodine adsorption value. The larger the specific surface area, the stronger the adsorption capacity of activated carbon. Under normal circumstances, the adsorption capacity of columnar activated carbon is between 400 and 800 kg, while high-quality activated carbon can reach about 1200 kg.
Different kinds of VOC, their molecular structure and properties are different, resulting in the difficulty of adsorption by activated carbon is also different. Common VOCs include toluene, benzene, xylene, ethylene, etc. These compounds have different physical and chemical properties such as molecular size, polarity and boiling point, which directly affect their adsorption capacity on activated carbon.
For example, toluene is a common VOC with a large molecular weight and certain polarity, so its adsorption capacity on activated carbon is high. According to the experimental data, 800 iodine granular activated carbon in the case of low humidity, the adsorption capacity of toluene can reach more than 30%, which means that 1 ton of activated carbon can absorb about 0.4 tons of toluene. For some VOCs with small molecular weight and weak polarity, their adsorption capacity on activated carbon may be relatively low.
The ambient humidity has a significant effect on the adsorption performance of activated carbon. When the humidity is high, the water molecules in the air will compete for the adsorption site of the activated carbon, reducing its adsorption capacity for VOC. Especially for highly polar VOCs, such as aldehydes and ketones, the effect of humidity is particularly obvious.
In a higher humidity environment, the adsorption capacity of activated carbon may decrease significantly. For example, at a relative humidity of 80%, the adsorption capacity of activated carbon for certain VOCs may be only half of that in a dry environment. Therefore, in practical applications, it is often necessary to prevent the air flow and reduce the humidity to improve the adsorption efficiency of activated carbon.
Temperature is also an important factor affecting the adsorption performance of activated carbon. In general, the increase in temperature will lead to a decrease in the adsorption capacity of activated carbon for VOC. This is because increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of VOC molecules, making it easier to desorb them from the surface of activated carbon.
For example, at room temperature (25 ° C), the adsorption capacity of activated carbon for certain VOCs may reach its maximum, while at high temperatures (such as 50 ° C), its adsorption capacity may be significantly reduced. Therefore, in waste gas treatment, maintaining the appropriate temperature is very important to ensure the efficient adsorption of activated carbon.
The working conditions include airflow velocity, VOC concentration and activated carbon bed thickness, etc. These factors jointly determine the adsorption effect of activated carbon. In practical applications, high airflow speed will lead to insufficient residence time of VOC on activated carbon and reduce its adsorption efficiency. However, too low airflow speed may lead to increased system resistance and affect the overall treatment effect.
In addition, VOC concentration is also an important factor. At low concentrations, the adsorption capacity of activated carbon may be limited, while at high concentrations, the adsorption site of activated carbon is easily saturated. Therefore, when designing the exhaust gas treatment system, it is necessary to set the VOC concentration and airflow speed reasonably to ensure the best adsorption effect.
According to the data in practical applications, the VOC adsorption amount of 1 ton of activated carbon can vary greatly. For example, in the treatment of toluene waste gas, 1 ton of high-quality activated carbon under appropriate working conditions, its adsorption capacity can reach more than 0.4 tons. For some VOCs with small molecular weight and weak polarity, the adsorption capacity may be significantly reduced.
In summary, how much VOC can be adsorbed by 1 ton of activated carbon is affected by many factors such as activated carbon quality, VOC types, environmental humidity, temperature and working conditions. In practical applications, it is necessary to consider these factors comprehensively, select the appropriate activated carbon and optimize the system design to ensure the best adsorption effect. For different waste gas treatment needs, it is recommended to carry out detailed experimental tests before actual operation to determine the best process parameters and activated carbon types, so as to achieve the ideal treatment effect.
In order to give full play to the adsorption capacity of activated carbon in practical applications, the following are some suggestions for selecting and optimizing activated carbon:
Preferentially select activated carbon with a large specific surface area to provide more adsorption sites. In general, activated carbon with a specific surface area of more than 1000 square meters/gram has better adsorption capacity.
activated carbon with different pore sizes has different adsorption effects on VOC molecules of different sizes. For large molecular weight VOCs, such as toluene and xylene, it is better to choose activated carbon with a larger pore size.
In a high humidity environment, it is recommended to pretreat the air flow and reduce the humidity to improve the adsorption efficiency of activated carbon. Common methods include the use of dryers or condensers.
Try to control the system temperature within the normal temperature range to avoid the negative impact of high temperature on the adsorption capacity of activated carbon. If processing high temperature exhaust gas, it is recommended to cool down before activated carbon adsorption.
When designing the exhaust gas treatment system, set the airflow speed and VOC concentration reasonably
Through the above optimization measures, the adsorption performance of activated carbon can be effectively improved in practical applications, so as to better deal with various VOC waste gases, and achieve the purpose of environmental protection and pollution control.
How much VOC can be adsorbed by 1 ton of activated carbon is a complex problem, which is comprehensively affected by many factors. In practical application, selecting suitable activated carbon and optimizing system design can significantly improve its adsorption effect. By comprehensively considering the quality of activated carbon, VOC types, environmental humidity, temperature and working conditions and other factors, the best adsorption effect can be achieved in the waste gas treatment process, and contribute to environmental protection and pollution control.

During the sewage treatment process, many different types of waste gases are produced. These waste gases mainly include:
Sewage contains a large amount of organic matter, which will produce odorous gases during the treatment process. These odorous gases are mainly composed of sulfides (h2s), amine compounds (NH3), etc., which cause serious pollution to the surrounding environment.
Sewage also contains a certain amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).These substances are easily evaporated into the air and are highly toxic and carcinogenic. Therefore, these VOCs need to be effectively controlled and removed during the treatment process.
During the sewage treatment process, some greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane will also be produced. These greenhouse gases have an important impact on global warming and climate change, and require corresponding control and emission reduction.
A wide variety of waste gases are produced during sewage treatment, posing serious threats to the environment and human health. Therefore, we need to take effective waste gas treatment measures to reduce the impact of these waste gases on the environment.

Before purchasing activated carbon, it is important to identify the use scenario and needs. Here are a few suggestions:
According to the application field selection: such as in the field of water purification, you can choose coal activated carbon or wood activated carbon. In the field of gold extraction, wood activated carbon can be selected. In the field of food processing, you can choose fruit shell activated carbon.
Select according to adsorption performance: Adsorption performance is one of the most important indicators of activated carbon, and its adsorption performance can be evaluated by comparing the specific surface area and pore volume of different types of activated carbon. In general, the larger the specific surface area, the better the adsorption performance.
Select according to particle size: The particle size of activated carbon will also affect its adsorption performance and use scenario. In general, the smaller the particle, the faster the adsorption rate, but it is also easy to cause blockage. The larger the particle, the slower the adsorption rate, but not easy to plug. Therefore, it is necessary to select the appropriate particle size according to the specific application scenario.
Selection according to cost: the price of different types of activated carbon varies greatly, and the appropriate activated carbon needs to be selected according to the actual application scenario and cost budget.
1. Iodine adsorption value: It is one of the important indicators to measure the adsorption capacity of activated carbon, the higher the value, the stronger the adsorption capacity.
2. Carbon tetrachloride adsorption rate: also reflects the adsorption performance of activated carbon, especially suitable for evaluating its performance in water treatment.
3. Ash and moisture content: High ash content may affect the adsorption effect, while excessive moisture content may reduce the actual use efficiency of activated carbon.
4. Particle size and pore size distribution: The appropriate particle size helps the activated carbon to distribute evenly in a specific space and improve the adsorption efficiency. The pore size distribution affects the adsorption capacity of different sized molecules.
Check before use: ensure that the activated carbon package is intact and not damaged to avoid contamination before use.
Regular replacement: The adsorption capacity of activated carbon is limited, and it needs to be replaced regularly according to the use situation to ensure the best purification effect.
Proper storage: Unopened activated carbon should be stored in a dry, ventilated place to avoid moisture affecting performance.
Combined use: For complex environments or high requirements, activated carbon can be considered in combination with other purification materials to achieve a better purification effect.
