Hi everyone
I have been struggling to find a quicker way of filtering solutions, as you all know it is a very time consuming part of the refining process. I was wondering if anyone had used activated carbon purely as a filter to remove debris and contaminants from auric chloride prior to precipitation? I have been using coffee filters for some years now and although they work great they are painfully slow and don't always get the very fine particulates without multiple passes of the filters. If your aucl3 is very clean they are quite fast but anything with a lot of debris and you are sunk. Any thoughts would be appreciated
