  • Hello Viewers,
    In this video, we are showing you a new method of gold recovery. Modern Gold Recovery Includes the electrolysis method. Which is a convenient way of recovering the gold from any gold-plated pins. In this video, we are showing you how you can do it without using the H₂SO₄.So watch the video and don't forget to like and subscribe to our channel.
    #goldrecovery #ewaste #ewasterecycling Gold is a valuable and sought-after metal, which has been used for centuries in jewelry, currency, and various industrial applications. However, extracting gold from its ores and refining it into a pure form can be a complex and expensive process. One way to obtain gold is by recovering it from electronic waste, specifically from golden pins found in computer processors, which contain a small amount of gold. In this article, we will explore how to recover gold from golden pins using salt and electrolysis.

    Sounds great at first, but at the end of the day, you still need HCl, H2SO4, maybe even HNO3 and so on. And the chemical of the salt and the gold will produce gold chloride, so only the table salt which is sodium chloride, replaces the HCl in the first step. So there is nothing really cheaper or less toxic than in conventional process.

    Good video, I've watched different videos on this and you have broken it down quite simply while still producing results. One suggestion, I believe when you were trying to pour the water out from the pure gold powder, if you add a drop of jetdry the gold would stop floating and sink to the bottom making it possible to pour the excess water without the need to filter. Gold is hydrophobic, so the jetdry help break the water tension.

      You all realize this is fake? Right? The beginning part only breaks the gold off the pins, it's all the Acids he uses at the end that does the end product. The Meta-bisulfite takes the molecular gold out of suspension? The HCL and H²SO⁴ is sulfuric acid, that will eat up tje base metals under the gold pins. This is all still very dangerous, did you see the orange fumes pour out of the beaker when he poured the acid in? That will eat your lungs out. But? You ppl do what you want? It's all Snake Oil...

      That many low grade pins may be better served in first stage waste bucket. (Just keep them in until the copper has gone into solution) Since scoops need to be refreshed so often in the electrolytic cell.

    Beakers and Pyrex like dishes can be used for reverse electroplating or refining gold to high purity using electrolytic method. These types of glass can't be warmed or cooled to fast than they will shatter if you do so. If you do use this type of glass be sure to use a catch basin just in case something breaks and be sure to monitor the temperature especially when using sulfuric acid

Three gold won't be dissolved but you can always check with stannous even though if hcl is present you will see some silver chloride. I try to rarely assume on other people's work without seeing it or being there but anything can be present especially if recovering from ewaste or even jewelry sometimes. If it's a rather large percentage I would change up your method until this is fixed. If it's a small amount I wouldn't worry about it and put your solution in a stock pot and recover it later of course if you're losing anything at all, we all want more than natural or to assume something may be wrong when it isn't.

    Try a saturated solution of salt and a divided membrane cell.
    When doing it this way do you get a chlorine smell when the unit is working?

    Well, I gave this a try. I used a set of jumper cables attached to my car battery. Seems to work fine. I did not do an acid wash and simply stained the solution and put the cotton balls in a crucible and fired it. I actually ended up with more metal than expected. a good amount of it seems to be copper. Battery current may have been too high. I also had a good amount of carbon from the cotton. Next time I will use coffee filters. I didn't expect so much copper from the electrolysis. Any thoughts on voltage / current effecting this?

    To anyone watching this or thinking about doing this, please note that the stirrer they are using to move the pins around on the copper plate while they are submerged and the electricity is attached is a glass stir stick. Please do not use anything that can conduct electricity if you choose to stir it or you will be electrocuted. Be safe!

      You must be kidding. Sea salt is healthy because it contains many minerals including iodine. It is not clear whether iodine is harmful. On the other hand anti clotting additions i would be weary off.

    Electrolysis removes gold and deposits on the lead electrode along with copper from the plate it's sitting on. You'll always lose gold with it. Just soaking in the brine alone will peel the gold off after a couple days with occasional stirring.
