  • Patent number: 11970755
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an application of cuprous sulfide in a recovery of Au (III) from aqueous solutions, which relates to the fields of hydrometallurgy and precious metal recovery. The method of the present disclosure uses cuprous sulfide nanoparticles to recover Au (III) from aqueous solution, and undergoes gold adsorption under mechanical stirring. The method described in the present disclosure can efficiently recover Au (III) from aqueous solutions, has good recovery effects on Au (III) from acidic waste liquid, and has the advantages of energy conservation, environmental protection, and low cost.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11815419
    Abstract: Examples are directed towards apparatuses, systems, and methods. For example, an apparatus includes a weight including a first side and a second side. The first side of the weight forms a receiving hole in the first side. A pin includes a first end and a second end. The second end of the pin is inserted into the receiving hole of the weight. The pin includes a reduced portion. A pin detonator is coupled to the reduced portion of the pin to sever the pin when detonated.
