EQUIPMENT FOR SEPARATING ORGANICS FROM AN ELECTROLYTIC STREAM IN ELECTROWINNING PROCESS OF SX/EW PLANTS AND PROCESS THERETO

摘要

A compact, light, and continuous-process apparatus for filtering impurities and separating organics contained in an electrolyte stream feeding an electrowinning cell, the apparatus includes an outer body having an octagonal tubular piece, a rear cover and rims or flanges, and an inner body having support housing, a common cover, at least one perforated or slotted tube and at least one high-contract surface filler. The apparatus also includes a rich electrolyte input, a rich electrolyte output, a contaminated electrolyte output, a lower flow input chamber, a mid-chamber for filtered electrolyte output, an upper chamber, and a lower distribution chamber.
