POX Autoclave Slurry Flow Control

Background

Pressure oxidation (POX) autoclave leaching is an effective method to recover refractory gold.  POX is a demanding process with slurry temperatures above 200°C and pressures above 25 atm. REXA  Linear  and  Rotary  Actuators are used to control autoclave slurry level where reliability and positioning control are important for improving gold recovery. 

Benefits:

  • Precise Modulating Control 
  • Reliability 
  • Large thrust 
  • Stiffness of Hydraulics 
  • Seat loading cylinder to protect the ceramic trim
