JWT has worked extensively in the waste utilization and recycling industry. It has developed pilot plant and assisted clients in patenting methods of fast pyrolysis for organic bearing wastes. Typical objectives are the recovery of liquid fuels, a gas phase to drive the process and solid fractions with added value. The pilot plant (designed by the company) below was applied to a variety of different feeds.
Pyrolysis Pilot Plant
JWT has demonstrable expertise and technology in the field of gas-liquid contacting - Kontax technology.
This has been applied to:
· oxygenation and aeration
· gas stripping
· carbonation
· flotation
This has been utilized for enhanced cyanidation extraction of marginally refractory gold ores raising recovery significantly,
Kontax oxygenation enhanced gold recovery
The company holds a patent in bioleaching for improving oxygen mass transfer in three-phase mineral leaching systems for refractory gold ores and concentrates.
Solvent Recovery in SX Systems
Key JWT personnel pioneered the application of Kontax microbubble flotation for the recovery of organic solvent in copper, nickel and acid circuits.
