CIL and CIP Interstage Screens for Gold and Silver Refining Process

Apr. 02, 2025
Share:

In the demanding world of gold and silver refining, optimizing recovery rates is paramount. Carbon-in-Leach (CIL) and Carbon-in-Pulp (CIP) circuits are cornerstone technologies, but their efficiency heavily relies on the performance of critical components like interstage screens. These screens, often referred to as intertank screens or wedge wire baskets, play a vital role: retaining valuable activated carbon loaded with precious metals while allowing the processed ore pulp to advance. Subpar screening can lead directly to carbon loss, reduced yields, and increased operational costs – impacting your bottom line.


We specialize in manufacturing high-performance wedge wire interstage screens specifically engineered for the rigorous conditions of CIL/CIP applications, designed to maximize your gold and silver recovery.

CIL and CIP Interstage Screens for Gold and Silver Refining Process

CIL/CIP circuits present a unique set of operational hurdles for screening equipment:


Abrasive Slurry: The continuous flow of fine ore pulp subjects screen surfaces to constant wear.

Potential for Blinding: Fine particles or slightly oversized carbon granules can clog screen openings, hindering flow (plugging) and reducing process efficiency.

Valuable Carbon Loss: Any inefficiency or damage in the screen can permit precious metal-laden carbon fines to escape the circuit, resulting in direct revenue loss.

Corrosive Environment: The chemical reagents integral to the leaching process demand screen materials with superior corrosion resistance.


The YUANLV Solution: Precision-Engineered Wedge Wire Screens


YUANLV addresses these challenges head-on through advanced design, premium materials, and meticulous manufacturing processes. Our wedge wire interstage screens are purpose-built to deliver exceptional performance and extended service life in gold and silver recovery circuits.


Optimized Wedge Wire Structure (Non-Plugging Design): The distinctive V-shaped profile of our wires creates continuous slots that widen inwardly. This unique geometry offers only two-point contact for particles, significantly minimizing the chance of near-size material becoming wedged or blinding the screen.


High Open Area for Efficiency: The precise spacing between the wedge wires results in a large effective open area. 


Premium Raw Materials: We utilize high-quality stainless steel grades, selected for their excellent corrosion and abrasion resistance. Our strategic factory location near stainless steel wire mesh sources allows strict quality control from the outset. 


Advanced Circular Fusion Welding: Employing cutting-edge welding technology creates exceptionally strong and consistent welds between the V-shaped profile wires and the underlying support rods. 


Seamless Spiral Wound Cylinders: Our screens are manufactured as one continuous, spirally wound cylinder, eliminating the potential weaknesses associated with longitudinal seams.


Space-Saving Vertical Design: Many of our interstage screens feature a vertical orientation. 


Reduced Carbon Adhesion: The smooth surface finish of the wedge wire inherently resists the build-up of activated carbon. This is further enhanced by our patented physical surface cleaning technology.
