Electrochemistry Looking for a small electrowinning plant

[PCZim]

Hi all

Looking to purchase a small electrowinning plant to extract gold from carbon then plate it onto wire wool. I currently take 300kg of loaded carbon per month to a professional Elution plant but I am looking for a small machine that I can run from my garage that can take say 20kg of carbon at a time. Preferably looking for a plug and play solution as I am not the most mechanically / technically minded person. Any affordable suggestions or design plans that even an idiot like me can follow?

Many thanks in advance

I'd switch from carbon to a strong base resin to (semi-selectively) pre concentrate the gold, then elute that with a concentrated CN solution and take that to electrowinning.

You can make such a thing plug and play to a certain extent, but you'll need an AA instrument at the minimum.
