  • 😱😱👉 ♻️ 💰How to make gold from HDD hard disks drive old computer Original gold extraction.@MakeGold 👉 / archimedeschannel
    Start by finding old or broken computers and separating the hard disk from these old computers.
    for personal computer you may get Most only one hard drive. But if it's a computer server or corporate computer super computer Mainframes have a large number of hard drives.
    Separate the IC chips from the circuit board.
    For extracting gold from drive hard disks today we are going to do IC chips using gold extraction method. traditional past Which is not often seen nowadays. Some steps. I still don't understand the principle and reason. Is it a gold smelting method?
    Burn IC chips to ashes.To make it easier to gold smelting.
    You may pound or grind it. Then mixed with borax at a ratio of 1 to 1.
    This type of furnace uses old oil for heating. It's used engine oil.
    All metals are fused together. We will get metal that is mixed with gold. to take to the next step
    I see workers who specialize in the work. Use cement mixed with water to re-smelt the gold alloy. I'm still wondering what this procedure is for. Or just reduce the size of the metal to a smaller size. To make it easier for nitric acid to handle these metals. and left only gold
    The metal will be melted. and was poured into the water to get a smaller size as needed
    Use nitric acid mixed with water 1 to 2. Boil to get rid of these metals. and will only be left with gold as an interesting step
    Please understand that this is a unsafe operation. and should not be followed as a work for experts and have long experience
    I hope you are happy And get benefit from our videos, please subscribe, comment, share the video to be encouraged.

    😱😱👉 ♻️ 💰 So What is Old IT Hardware Worth?
    There are three ways that a retired device can find value in a new life: resale of the whole device, resale of its parts, or resale of the material once it has been shredded. The path that any given device takes depends on its condition, how modern its components are, storage and RAM capacity, and other factors.
    If a device is truly end-of-life, it will be destroyed in bulk with similar devices, and the separated recyclable materials will be sold as scrap for manufacturing. That would include any precious metals in the device - but those will make up only a miniscule fraction of the original weight.
    Scrap commodities are traded by weight, and an 8-lb laptop or 25-lb monitor may only contain a few grams of precious metals at most. The majority of a device’s weight comes from less valuable material like plastic and glass.
    A scrapped, shredded laptop might end up being worth about $10 per pound of material, maybe more if it is an older device and contains more gold. Newer-generation devices typically contain less gold as advancements in technology and efforts to reduce production costs have pushed tech manufacturers to design thinner, lighter, less resource-intensive units.
    Electronic wastes (e-wastes) refer to abandoned electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). E-waste contains significant concentration of gold which is 10 times more than its concentration in gold ores. It approximately contains 10-10,000 g of gold/ton, whereas the gold ore contains barely 0.5-13.5 g of gold/ton. In this chapter, insights on the importance of precious metal recovery (PMR) from e-waste are emphasized. Also, an overview of various technologies available to recover precious metals from e-waste

    Using cement is a very old refining technique called cuppelation. When the chips were initially smelted lead was added into the mix. Lead has an affinity for precious metals so when it melted it collected all of the gold and silver present into its alloy. The cement is used as a cupel. When the lead alloy reaches a certain temperature it oxidizes to letharge along with all of the other base metals. The cement cannot absorb the molten metal, but it can absorb the metal oxides drawing them out of the rest of the metal. Do this long enough and the only metal left behind will be the precious metals. I really enjoyed this video. I love watching using traditional old technology used to process our modern technology.

      Ok - ein durchaus stimmiges Argument - aber trotzdem ist Es ein Hohn, daß in 'zivilisierteren Gegenden' Unmengen an Geld aufgewendet wird, um Spuren von Schadstoffen in irgend welchen Prozessen zu reduzieren und Da wird 'Alles, was Gott und die Welt herausblasen kann' ... heraus geblasen.
      Weder sah das 'Chips räuchern' sonderlich gesund aus, noch der Öl-Brenner, Der immer hin Altöl recycelt ... aber Dessen Abgaswerte sich hierzulande wohl kaum mit den ansässigen Geräten messen ließen ...
      Wie war der Spruch?
      So lange man in chinesischen Flüssen Filme entwickeln kann, macht Es keinen Sinn, hier an 0,5% des Abgaswert zumzuschrauben ...
      In diesem Sinne: Ab in die Rinne ... oder: Nach uns die Sintflut
      Es müsste doch Heute möglich sein, den ganzen Mist 'etwas schonender' zu recyceln ... aber Da spielt wohl wieder das Geld eine große Rolle - man bekommt mit wesentlich weniger Arbeit ebenfalls Geld raus, indem man den [s]Schrott[/s] Müll als Schüttgut ins ferne Ausland verschifft ... und kann Das dann auch noch als Entwicklungshilfe steuerlich geltend machen ... was eine feine Zeit, in Der wir leben ...

      In fact the video was posted year ago but : I presume there is much more gold on the SATA connectors instead of chips :) - AND it is not possible to get 42g of PURE gold from 7kg BGA chips (if they would be a PENTIUM processors - maybe, but not BGA) , also it is not whole process of gold recovery. The process does not show 24C gold recovery - still it has some contamination comes from chips. 1st dissolve all base materials (steel, copper, silver ,etc) , 2nd use aqua reggia and dissolve gold - and the same create a liquid gold solution, 3rd. filter solution, 4th. use MBS, 5th. clean received gold powder using (distilled water), 6th melt powder to the 24C gold. The blue colour of the solution indicates Silver which also can be recovered in easy way.

    Roasting the plastic chip packages might make a lot of poisonous fumes, especially if the plastic is fire retardant.
    There is a lot of dissolved copper they're pouring off in that blue water from the nitric acid.
    This seems like very traditional gold mining techniques applied to a new type of ore.
    More recent electronic waste has much more silver in it from all the silver solder.

    5:10 This is a procedure called, "cupelling." The plaster dish is called a cupel. The alloy is heated to a temp where the metal melts, then to about 1750 degrees F, at which point, metal oxides form, and rise to the surface, and are shed off the edges, absorbed by the cupel. As more and more of the metals oxidize, the oxides are absorbed, and the button shrinks. Finally, all the common metals are oxidized, and only the noble metals (gold, palladium, silver, etc) remain. All copper, lead, tin, iron have been oxidized and their oxides absorbed into the plaster cupel.

    Cupellation is the metallurgy process used with bone ash or cement powder, calcium etc. He’s making a cupel dish to absorb metal oxides. Or lead/copper cupel is another way alloy PMs. All base metals will form slag under controlled temps during smelting operations. Precious metals don’t form oxides under controlled temperatures. All the slag from base metals are skimmed off the material. You’re left w/ a PM dore bar. You then can use traditional analytical chemistry to dissolve and precipitate the type of pms. Fire Assaying to Chemical Purification process using the Reactivity series etc.

    For anyone actually attempting this. A MUCH easier way is to burn to ash and then use first hydrochloric acid alone which will dissolve all the low order metals. Filter and throw the liquid away or keep it whatever. THEN add a much more concentrated HCL together with an OXIDIZER such as peroxide to the filtered powder. That will dissolve the gold without the need for nitric acid(Which may actually make explosive compounds if certain metals are present) and is not readily available everywhere. HCL sells as Pool acid or cement cleaner. Then just use sodium bisulfate to precipitate the gold powder. Filter and melt in stainless steel, even in an oven. Gold has a very low melting point. At no point do you need a furnace. Or any Nitric acid. Also, RAM chips, CPU's GPUS, and old 8-bit controllers work best. Hard drives are actually a crap source because as you saw you would need a whole bucket. With 8-bit controllers, a single beaker full will do. Same for RAM chips. GOOD LUCK.

There is also a type of bronze you can make from copper 80 aluminium 20 which looks like gold and yet is much harder while still being easily melted at the beginning before the amalgamation forms.

      @DobleMC 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@NaNa-cq8ck Probably not.. but its not the point, the point should be "Extract both" first gold (as is easier than paladium) then, a process to extract "paladium" without wasting it.
      Iron, glass, plastics are the easiest, copper and aluminum can be extracted easily too.. but when speaking of "internal layers" like gold/silver/palladium/Rodium.. individually the quantities are so small that a single PC wont make u rich.. u need to process hundred of thousands to get an actual profit. Silver and gold can get some interesting quantities, but rodium and palladium are so small that u wont see a profit in the short run. but.. it will increase the "lose earns" (don't know if that's the name in english) because it can pay part of the chemicals used to extract gold (And contribute to earn more reducing the expenses)
      Still, i don't know how to extract paladium.. and the quantity... maybe.. about 0,0010/20 grams per microchip (Maybe 1 gram each 1000 processors? probably) that maybe doesn't sound like much.. but... we are speaking of trash anyway. the more we can recover in the long run, the more money we can make.
      In terms of "Experimenting"... can be interesting, but if someone want to make money in the real way recycling, every single material have to be processed. even the plastics and the iron is solid money (But again, low profit, not the main objective)
      I gived up with rodium, but there must be a way to do it with palladium. maybe on a furnace at 1600º and lowering it slowly to 1555º the palladium should go to the bottom.
