Introduction: Advanced Recovery Systems for Gold Mining Operations

The Tüprag Kışladağ Plant ADR Unit Project demonstrates KDT Industry’s expertise in delivering critical process infrastructure for the mining sector. ADR (Adsorption, Desorption, and Recovery) units are essential in the gold extraction process, allowing efficient recovery of precious metals from leach solutions while ensuring compliance with environmental and industrial standards.

KDT Industry supported this project by designing, fabricating, and installing tanks, structural steel frameworks, piping systems, and auxiliary equipment to ensure the ADR unit operates with maximum efficiency, safety, and sustainability.


Project Scope and Objectives

The Kışladağ Gold Mine required a modern ADR unit to optimize its gold recovery process. KDT Industry’s objectives included:

  • Designing and fabricating adsorption and desorption tanks with corrosion-resistant linings.
  • Manufacturing solution storage tanks for cyanide and process water.
  • Delivering piping systems, pumps, and filter separators for fluid transfer.
  • Constructing structural steel frameworks for platforms, walkways, and access systems.
  • Ensuring compliance with international mining and metallurgical standards (ASTM, ISO, and EU regulations).

These contributions positioned Tüprag Kışladağ as a benchmark gold mining facility in the region.


Engineering and Manufacturing Excellence
