Gold Award: The split copper solvent extraction circuit concept – taking mining technology to the next level
The copper industry is continually looking to reduce its costs while improving copper recovery.

The split copper solvent extraction circuit, which is used to process leach solutions obtained by the agitation leaching of copper ores, enables producers of copper to achieve both these aims as it represents a significantly more effective way of recovering copper from oxide ores.

The lower costs of treating copper oxide ores containing cobalt result in lower copper and cobalt prices for consumers around the world. There is great demand for this new copper recovery circuit which was developed by a team from Cognis' strategic business unit Functional Products.

It has already been introduced at many plants in two of the most important copper and cobalt producing countries, and offers further proof of Cognis Mining Technology's status as a global leader in copper solvent extraction.

Bronze Award: Vegapure – well-being in a bottle, Many consumers see drinks containing natural ingredients as an easy first step towards a healthier lifestyle. Plant sterol esters, which have been proven in clinical studies to lower harmful LDL cholesterol, form one such ingredient.

Working closely with one of the world's leading food and beverage brands, a team from Cognis' strategic business unit Nutrition & Health developed a new sterol ester based on special fatty acids.

The aim was to achieve the highest possible product quality while keeping the cost of the ingredient competitive. The latest Vegapure product not only compares favorably with other sterol esters in terms of taste, oxidative stability, ease of transportation, and storage at ambient temperatures, but is also in line with Cognis' strategy of targeting the wellness and sustainability markets.
