Good let me know how it goes
Hey Owl, Another great vid. Mate, I wonder if I can ask you to do an experiment. My new lab is not ready yet and I have been wanting to try the following. Strip completely 6 - 10 motherboards with an air chisel or hammer and chisel, and do a rough sort to remove aluminum capacitors and other obvious junk. Then either incinerate and crush or boil in hot H2SO4, remove any magnetic materials, then boil in HCL + Some citric to remove tin. Then dissolve all metals other than gold in hot HNO3. Recover Ag (and then any Pd) then recover Au with Aqua Regia. My theory is that sorting components (if not making a video) is a waste of time and that nearly everything can be recovered by simply incinerating, grinding and recovering. As you are one of the few refiners on KZread who understands the chemistry so I thought you might be up for the challenge,🙂
Как по мне- хороший метод, соляная кислота для удаления выводов и остатков припоя, борная -плавень и понижает температуру плавления керамики.

Looks like the sodium hydroxide is a bit cleaner process than ashing these type of capacitors. Thanks for showing! I have a nice stockpile of these older caps. Id like to use the lye to strip a few other ones that look like they may be pd/ag type mlcc inside.

From my understanding brother something that is highly caustic to boiling can desovle metals too. Boiling in HCL will remove base metals but tin should be clear now purple colloidal gold is purple and also from my understanding there's supposes to be small amounts of gold in MLCCs.

Heya ! Another method for recovery which will be of great interest for those who don't have furnace at home ! It takes a long time to get rid of base metals using HCL but... It's the costless method of all ! Anyway, i must ask you about your last video for bga caps and the problem of gold yeld. Did you recover more gold or did you bought bad materials ( Some bga caps do not contain any gold instead of their "gold corner indication".) Thanks for sharing your work and wish you a good summer time.
@colonialcharlie8702
Жыл бұрын
I think mostly missing gold was caused by the amount of copper heat sink bgas. The yeild estimates are likely more accurate if they are sorted. The batch seemed to be mostly the heat sink ones. 1kg heat sink bgas will likely be similar yeild to less than 1/5th kg regular/gold corner bgas

@@kamelsamer5768 the estimate for gold per kilogram is for either mixed bgas with some copper heat sync ones. (This was soo many if i recall) Or for no copper heat sink ones.
