:) nice. i still haven't processed my brown OR blue capacitors..saving them for a rainy day but i think i might get them done soon just in case the prices here in the US spike back up.
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 TH-cam who understands the chemistry so I thought you might be up for the challenge,🙂
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.
I am trying right now the NaOH method on some blue ones and I think they are plastic. I have been soaking them for 2 hours and nothing is happening. I will try to wash them and then add H2so4 and see if thar works
Hello greetings from Argentina, I'm new to your channel and I really like your content I would like you to explain which capacitors have palladium 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Nice video! I have a doubt, why the hydrochloric acid solution is so violet or dark blue, it seems to me that it contains palladium with the copper. Thank you very much
Hi, may I ask you to check the hydrochloric acid solution for palladium, please. In presence of oxygen (air) palladium is dissolving in hydrochloric acid. Thank you for the great video! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 👍
@@OwlTech333 The point is that I gave up from this process as I was finding Pd in the hydrochloric acid. Interesting .. I will do some experiments this weekend. Thank you!
@@escrapchannel diluted or concentrated HCl you were using? If you want to be 100% sure it won't touch the Pd you should use nickel chloride solution under reflux to dissolve the ceramics
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.
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
@@colonialcharlie8702 what do you mean by "missing gold"? Why are all gold recoveryists complaining about missing or lost gold? Could someone please explain how gold is lost?
@@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. The heat syncs are very heavy and skew the estimated gold recovery. Just something to keep in mind for those who may purchase or bid based apon an estimate they read.
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.
@@OwlTech333 Thank you very much. Yes, I saw it before on your channel as well as now, but if I do not have sulfamic acid in order to get rid of lead, can I use only concentrated sulfuric acid

this one was for sale and I have no market for pure palladium so there was no financial reason to refine it and since I have other videos on the refining process (and more to post ) I decided to cash in the alloy…

NaOH works on the clay coated MLCCs, for the plastic ones you'll need H2SO4

One more thing if I'm not to nosy. How can you tell when the acid is saturated? Thank you once more for sharing with us!
@@razor1983 hot H2SO4 will, but on some of them only flame helps
Thank you! So ashing and than continue from step 2.

Several kinds
Ceramic disk capacitors and MLCCs.
Thanks, I havent seen a good non-smd MLCC refineproces yet!
Why are you using boric acid instead of borax?
Works better on lowering the melting point of barrium titanate
Спасибо за мокрый метод!🙂Выход!!!👍👍👍
Is there a chart showing what pgm’s are in different colored ceramic capacitors?
Unfortunately no…
nice :)
Thanks!

Hi, did you perform tin chloride test on HCl?
Do all these steps apply for the russian capacitors? Thank you
Yes, the process is exactly the same
Where do you get these capacities from cheers
May i ask how you remove the slag from the alloy using HCl since it had Ag in it?
the slag does not contain Ag, the alloy does. With the prolonged boiling HCl I removed the borax glass not the silver from the alloy
Sağol kardeşim kolay gelsin sana
Excelente.
Отличный выход.
Спасибо!

no gold in this mlccs, you can find gold on the surface mount mlccs wich is leached from the pcb by the solder
the puprle colour is from titanium salts formed from the dissolution of the ceramic substrate - barium titanate
@@OwlTech333 but I have seen a video where they refine Metals with caustic soda so you probably did lose some metals their brother.
Not with this process and caustic is used only to remove the coating
Sir, why don't you use battery water that is stepped on with HNO3 sir?
yes 50:50 water to HCl
@@OwlTech333 Thank you sir
Sir why not use h2so4 + hno3 sir

Is the boric acid a flux?
yup. lowers the melting point of barium titanete
Esse maçarico é o fogo normal ou tem gas
Почему добавили борную кислоту?
can we use vinegar and salt?
Yes - to season your salad, not in this particular process
My intuitive ignorance begs me to ask why not perform the chemical separation before melting? The cost of nitric acid would be my first guess
this one was for sale and I have no market for pure palladium so there was no financial reason to refine it and since I have other videos on the refining process (and more to post ) I decided to cash in the alloy…

Приветствую. А от медных ножек как избавились?
Солянком, тоже не поверил, когда керамика растворилась ножки там не было, а из раствор удалилась медь после добавления алюминия
Very hard to get pure palladium.
Very easy actually, haven’t uploaded the video yet
It seems too easy! Just boiling in HCl to remove ceramic? No Nitric acid required? Incredible.
Yes this is a recovery process only, refining is another story
@@OwlTech333 true, but it's so much less work than pyrometallurgy and cupellation
@@dizzious only seems this way, with pyrometallurgy this whole day of boiling could have been squeezed down to an hour tops
