Coconut shells are the most widely used raw material for the production of activated carbon suitable for gold production by cyanide leaching. However, increasing gold production is likely to necessitate the exploitation of other sources. Abundance and ready availability of hazelnut shells, apricot and peach stones make them a viable candidate for an alternative source. In this study, activated carbons made of these materials have been tested to determine their suitability for gold metallurgy. Parameters of carbonization and activation have been optimized. Gold loading capacity and adsorption kinetics have been studied.

Gold nanostar @ iron oxide core-shell nanostructures: synthesis, characterization, and demonstrated surface-enhanced Raman scattering properties
Nalbant Esentürk, Emren (2013-01-01)
Iron oxide-coated gold nanostars are produced by first synthesizing gold nanostars (ca 150 nm), then introducing a polyvinylpyrollidone coating followed by reducing iron(II) and iron(III) salts on the nanoparticle (NP) surface. Morphological and chemical composition characterizations of these composite nanomaterials were performed via field-emission transmission electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectroscopy studies. The analysis revealed that the majority of the NPs had coating of approximately 1-5 nm ...
Pressure leaching of Sivrihisar-Yunus Emre nickel laterites
Seçen, Berk; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2011)
The aim of this thesis study was to extract nickel and cobalt from Sivrihisar limonitic nickel laterite ore by high pressure acid leaching (HPAL) method under most economical operating parameters. Optimizing the conditions to yield a saleable quality mixed hydroxide product from the pregnant leach solution (PLS) was also investigated. To extract high amounts of nickel and cobalt from the laterite matrix; leaching duration, leaching temperature and sulfuric acid/ore ratio were studied at fixed conditions of ...
Cyanide leaching behavior of an arsenic rich refractory gold ore
Büyüktanır, Karden; Altun, Naci Emre; Department of Mining Engineering (2017)
In this work, the possibility of gold extraction using cyanide leaching from a refractory type gold ore, particularly rich in arsenic minerals of realgar and orpiment, was assessed. In this regard, the effectiveness of the cyanide leaching process on the ore was determined using bottle-roll leaching tests with respect to cyanide amount, cyanidation period, and particle size. In the study, Bottle Roll Tests were carried out at first in order to determine cyanide consumption tendency of the ore, with an ore w...
Calcination characteristics of laterite ores from the central region of Anatolia
KESKİNKILIÇ, ENDER; Pournaderi, S.; Geveci, Ahmet; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali (2012-10-01)
Drying, calcination, prereduction, and smelting are the main steps in conventional crude ferronickel production. Industrially, these steps are conducted using the rotary kiln-electric arc furnace (RKEF) process. In this paper, calcination characteristics of Sivrihisar laterite ores from the Central Anatolia region are investigated. The extent of elimination of chemically bound water and other volatiles was studied by experiments conducted at various temperatures in the 250-800 degrees C range. Phase changes...
Synthesis of tin oxide-coated gold nanostars and evaluation of their surface-enhanced Raman scattering activities
Elcı, Aylin; Demırtas, Ozge; Öztürk, İbrahim Murat; Bek, Alpan; Nalbant Esentürk, Emren (2018-12-01)
Tin oxide-coated gold nanostar hybrid nanostructures are prepared by first synthesizing gold nanostars (ca. 400nm), then introducing Na2SnO3 precursor followed by its hydrolysis and formation of a tin oxide layer on nanoparticle surface. The synthesized hybrid structures have been characterized by combination of UV-Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray studies, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectr...
