7. Ion exchange columns. - Our columns are constructed of fiberglass on systems up to
80
gpm. We use a lead/lag system where the lead (first) column is regenerated when it is
full
of metal and the lag (second) column is used exclusively during regeneration and
becomes
the lead column after regeneration. The system stays on line during the regeneration
phase. At least half of the systems resin is always on stream. The system is designed for
one gallon per minute per cubic foot of resin. This is a conservative design flow rate.
Even
when operating on only one half of the systems' resin during the regeneration cycle, the
effluent metal levels are very low. Copper systems usually run under 0.5 ppm and can
run
under 0.05 ppm, depending on how full the columns get between regenerations and how
closely the system is monitored.
8. Ion exchange resins - Many different resins are available from many different
manufacturers. There is no such thing as a metal specific resin although many are better
for some metals than others. We use resins that maximize the efficiency of the system for
the particular metal of interest. Please seek a quotation if you wish a better definition of
a
resin for your particular situation.
9. Control System - Our system uses a microprocessor to control the valves and
interlocks.
The control system is mounted in a Nema 4x fiberglass enclosure. We feature all air
operated valves controlled by manifolded solenoid valves mounted in the main control
panel. The main control panel also houses the level control board, circuit breakers,
power
latching relay, and all motor controllers. Our system features fully automatic and manual
control of the regeneration cycle. Optional systems can fully automate the process
where
an operator is called if needed. Our systems are computer capable featuring RS232
porting.
10. Regeneration - Regeneration is initiated with one button as is backwashing the
media
filter. Once the regenerant tanks are full, select either backwash column A or column B
with the front pushbutton and then let the system work. Three to four hours later,
depending on the system capacity, the system automatically returns to the correct state.
One column is always on line during regeneration. No further operator intervention is
required. After regeneration, a valve is opened and the regenerant pump is turned on
from
the main control panel; the regenerant tank is emptied to the reclaim module for metal
reclamation. When the metal is plated out to a low level, the recovered acid is pumped
back into the regeneration tank from the control panel of the reclaim module. See our
Metal Recover Ion Exchange Process literature for details on the chemistry of MRIX
systems or the Deionization literature for details on the DI process in general .
11. Regeneration Modules - Regeneration modules consist of a tank for regenerant, a
centrifugal pump, diverter valves for draining and cleaning, and a manual override on the
main control panels. There are usually two regeneration modules on larger systems,
smaller systems use an eductor for caustic which is fed from a 55 gallon drum. One is
for
the acid regenerant which recovers cation metals, the other is for caustic which prepares
the resin for the next cycle. Our regenerant tanks are constructed of polypropylene and
reinforced where necessary. Each is sized to handle the proper concentration and
amount
of regenerant. No molded polyethylene tanks are ever used . Regenerant recovery is
important to us so our systems are designed to remove as much undiluted regenerant as
possible before rinsing the system. Our resin columns are "blown down" with air before
and after each rinse to increase the effectiveness of each step in the process and to
minimize water usage. Our acid regeneration modules fill up to within 1/4" of the initial
level after the regenerant is recovered. To reclaim a regenerant, it is pumped to a
recovery
module where the metals are plated out.
12. Recovery Modules - Each recovery module consists of a tank constructed of
polypropylene with appropriate girthing. Each unit is self contained and mounted on a
separate skid. The units include the main tank sized at 2 times the volume of the
regeneration module on the main skid, a recirculation pump, motor controller with
housing,
and a electrolytic cell. Each cell has multiple anodes on close centers for high transfer
efficiencies. Low current densities allow efficient plating down to reasonably low metal
levels. Each electrowinning cell has between 18 to 44 square feet of cathode area
available.
Multiple cell systems are available. The same units can be used for cyanide destruct or
for
electroless recovery or chelate destruct. Rectifiers supplied with self contained recovery
units are mounted on the same skid.

As to the fact that the TAPE hurts Maxam ...information in this newtech information age
is readily available...infact ...I see such ifo as a verrification of the TECHNOLOGY that
we are seeing developing here- THAT IS MY TAKE on the Great Hewlett INFO on
the Geology Models, the Website info and even the TEXTBOOK INFO THAT I AM
GLEENING- it all relates to a NEWTECH MINING THAT is based upon Chemistry
and Natural Elements that will yield the Benificated Products for the world to Gleen
from the Engineering ( remco.com ) and other links make one realsize that
the resins can PULL OUT THE GOODIES ...see golds and other PGMs from wastes
in industrial settings- America is doing that now in industry- Arizona will do it soon in
NEWTECH MINING! That is the one true fact.
