Gold separation device patented
16:35:02 GMT, 09 March, 2006
A new device has been created that will allow "faster, cheaper and cleaner" recovery of gold and other metals from solutions, according to its developers.
Chela has taken out a nanotechnology patent on its new product and expects to make the first sales in 2006.
According to the Silicon Valley-based outfit, the product boasts a "high flow rate, very fast loading and stripping, high selectivity and long life".
The device uses nano-sand to separate metals from solutions and can be used in the mining and environmental sectors.
And the invention will initially be pitched at the gold and copper sector, VP marketing Bo Varga, explained.
He added: "Our products can replace carbon columns and deliver more revenue at a lower cost. We can load the column in a few hours and unload in a few minutes. Our plug-and-play gold recovery skid can be trucked into or out of a mining site for both rapid set-up and tear-down."
The company currently has two US patents and is in the process of obtaining several others. It has benefited from funding from several bodies including the NIH and NSF.
