Rhotec Resins

Recover & Separate

 

Precious Metals 

from PLS, leachates and waste streams.

High 
Loading.

>50x

 

Since Rhotec loads 10-50 times more metal than existing resins while leaving undetectable PGM residuals, refiners use it to recover PGM from various pregnant leach solutions.

Loads 100% of its weight in gold.

Loads 40-50% of its weight in platinum or palladium.

Loads 30-40% of its weight in rhodium and iridium.

Highly Selective.

  • Loads PGMs first, then some base metals.

  • Residual PGMs are often less than 1 ppm.

Loading Sequence

 

Rhotec loads metals in a specific sequence.

Metals are loaded one at a time.

The resin doesn't load the next metal until the current one is completely loaded.

​

Loading Capacity

​

Rhotec has a specific loading capacity for each metal.

​

Metals Separation

 

Precious metals can be partitioned and recovered one by one with high purity.

Use 
Cases.

Aqueous Solutions & Streams
 
A wide variety of primary & secondary pregnant leach solutions, or industrial waste streams containing precious metals are ideal candidates. Rhotec is suitable for use with cyanide, chloride, and sulfate solutions. 

Solvent-Based Streams
 
Under certain conditions, precious metals can be recovered from organic solvent-based streams.

Spent Plating Bath Solutions
 
Platinum and Palladium are easily recovered from used plating bath solutions in a variety of industries.

Catalyst Recovery
 
Precious metals can be selectively scavenged from leach solutions derived from spent heterogeneous catalysts, and under certain conditions directly from homogeneous catalysts.

Technology
Pairs.

Dissolve & Recover
 
Use LEO Technology to dissolve metals, and Rhotec Resins to recover them.

Separate & Strip
 
Use Rhotec Resins to load separate metals, and LEO Technology to strip the resins.
Alternatively, Rhotec can be incinerated to produce pure metal sponges.
