Effective Solutions for Mining Challenges

Carus provides chemical solutions tailored to meet the mining industry’s unique operational and environmental demands. With a strong focus on process optimization and regulatory compliance, our permanganate-based technologies offer effective tools for managing contamination, improving system efficiency, and reducing environmental impacts.

High-Quality Product Offerings for Mining

Carus delivers high-quality chemical products designed for specific mining processes:

  • CARUSOL® liquid permanganate, CAIROX® potassium permanganate, and AQUOX® potassium permanganate: Reliable oxidants for contaminant control, including iron and manganese removal, cyanide detoxification in gold processing, and addressing other impurities in mining-influenced water.

Applications in Mining

Acid Mine Drainage Treatment

Acid mine drainage often leads to contamination with high levels of iron and manganese, posing challenges for water systems. Carus offers permanganate solutions to treat acid mine drainage by removing these metals, improving water quality, and reducing long-term environmental impact.

Contaminant Removal from Mining-Influenced Water

Carus’ permanganate solutions effectively treat mining-influenced water by oxidizing and removing contaminants such as arsenic, iron, manganese, and thallium. These solutions ensure compliance with discharge regulations and improve water quality, addressing critical environmental and operational concerns.

Cyanide Destruction for Gold Leaching

Cyanide is essential in gold leaching but poses significant environmental risks. Carus permanganate products provide a reliable and eco-friendly solution for detoxifying cyanide in gold mining, ensuring safe disposal and regulatory compliance.

Oxidation Removal of Impurities

In refining operations, permanganate effectively oxidizes impurities from zinc ore enabling the production of high-purity end products.
