Dr. Carl C. Nesbitt, CTO and Cofounder
Dr. Nesbitt is a tenured engineering professor at Michigan Technological University with 20 years of experience in hydrometallurgy, aqueous chemistry, separation technologies, materials science, and environmental processing. Dr. Nesbitt developed the Reticle Carbon technology during a series of dilute solution gold extraction projects at Michigan Technological University. Dr. Nesbitt has subsequently directed Reticle’s activities to manufacture, measure, control, implement, and operate Reticle Carbon technology in metal precipitation, toxic ion removal, desalination, and supercapacitance. Dr. Nesbitt combines expertise in material science (which is required to manufacture and measure Reticle Carbon) as well as minerals processing, hydrometallurgy, hydrochemistry, and organic chemistry. Dr. Nesbitt consults with virtually every company in the mining and mineral processing industry on various technical and chemical issues.
Dr. Nesbitt was educated at the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) and the University of Michigan (UofM). He has two advanced degrees from UNR in metallurgical engineering (an M.S. in 1985 and a Ph.D. in 1990) and two degrees in chemical engineering (a B.S. from UNR in 1980 and an M.S.E. from UofM in 1989.) Immediately after completing the baccalaureate, he worked for three years as a plant metallurgist for the Anaconda Minerals Company on the start-up and operation of a mineral concentrator and leach facility. Immediately upon completion of his Ph.D., he worked as a researcher and professor of metallurgical engineering at Michigan Tech where he managed research projects and over 20 graduate students through the completion of advanced degrees. Over this period, he has generated numerous publications and a number of patents worldwide.
