The plant MOD. APGPC-01 is used to produce potassium gold cyanide (KAu(CN)2). The plants rate production is 1 kg of gold as cyanide for EACA cycle (a production cycle take approximately 8 hours)

The plant consists of a structure in self – extinguishing PP where the electrolysis and crystallization of the gold cyanide take place; the process unfolds in the following phases: the slabs of gold are connected to the anode in a solution containing KCN and, titanium rods connected inside a porous break wall that prevents the gold from seeping through serve as cathode; a potential difference is applied that allows all the gold in the baskets to pass through in solution.

At this point, the .cyanide salt must be crystallized, by lowering the temperature of the solution (We recommend that you reply on the aid of a refrigerator). Once crystallization is complete, the solution is filtered through a Buchner funnel; all the salt that has formed must be dried in a ventilated furnace before it is used. The filtered liquid is treated separately to recover the left-over gold and recycle it ( the recovery system is included in the plant APGPC and makes it possible to obtain metal gold.)

• 1 PP flame retardant hood

• 1 Funnel Buchner
• 1 Vacuum Flask
• 1 Set of paper filters
• 1 stirrer-heater with digital temperature control of the liquid
• 1 recovery electrolytic bath composed of PP flame retardant 2 anodes titanium mixed oxide rods and steel
• 1 Peristaltic pump for transferring liquids
• 1 Electric control and command
