In a CIP plant, leaching is complete before the first adsorption tank, and gold is then recovered from the leached pulp in a series of (typically) 4–10 dedicated carbon adsorption tanks. In a CIL plant, the carbon is added directly into the leach tanks, with the claimed advantage of lowering capital costs by eliminating the CIP adsorption tanks.
