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.
