Couple of things : Are these experiments in Electrolysis if so why not depopulate the Boards prior to submerging in the electrolyte . If you put those solution I. A bucket w/ iron you will recover cleaner values . The sediment would just be everything below iron on the reactivity scale . Then run through a copper cell , the PMG’s would be captured in the anode basket as slimes , copper deposited on the cathode .
@Hill-13 , no acids is part of the expirament, melting is next step with whatever sediment comes off into a nugget to analyze gold content and other metals for further Refining that could be reverse electroplating again or AR, hitting the boards until no longer have visible gold, the blue sediment is silver shown in previous video 'stripping 1 silver plated pcb ', thx for commenting FYI you could DIY and let me know the results, I want all the color off the board this also weakens the micrcomponents and ic's to depopulate crush then strip ic and components and we'll see deposits as well as sediment, the sediment is a deposit but it's light enough to be carried in water it's not dissolved
I get that it’s a water cell , that blue color is more likely to be copper than silver . If you melt all that stuff together in a button then dissolve in AR or any acid it’s going to use a lot of acid and be harder to refine you have aluminum, iron , Nickel , tin , copper .etc. in that mixture/ sediment . I have DIY I strip all aluminum and iron off . Pull BGA and gold corners off . Run the boards in an AP Bucket , separate chips from resistors then process components accordingly . Instead of boiling down why not filter and roast at least that would oxidize some of tin and other metals which would make it easier further down the road .
Maybe you missed my ic chip videos starting with about 80 ounces of ic chips, I scraped all those chips from pcb's, scraped all the micr components, plucked all the f'ing pins and connectors, scraped with a hammer and puddy knife, I know how to process them with chemicals , but not any more, I'll strip your cellphone without taking it apart after hitting it with the electrodes I'll rip the f'ing thing apart without any tools, maybe you missed that in previous video, thx for info, check it out, it's too easy
