Brief Description

Description :

CSIR-CSMCRI developed two alternative routes for the recovery of palladium (palladium chloride) from spent silica. After optimizing the process parameters, i.e., calcination temperature, acid concentration, water content and digestion time, the party was called for process demonstration. The process was demonstrated to the party successfully at 10 kg Calcined silica batch (in three batches).
