For a self taught guy, you do some amazing chemistry. You seem to have an innate understanding of chemical processes and when you arrive at unexpected results (hexachloroplatinate formation) you are cautious and do tests to validate your hypothesis. Really impressive. Thank you for the education.
49:00 heat decomposition should mean that sample has to be dehydrated first. I would use a large ziplock bag and a small beaker half-full of NaOH as a dessicant. Put the dish in the bag next to the beaker and seal the bag for a couple of days.
But $150 dollars of acids and supplies and a whole days time for around 250 worth of palladium would not be worth it to me to do on a production scale. Neat for a project though
Stuff like this is why I watch these videos. I don't wan't to see the perfect textbook example of these processes. Its the unexpected things, the common mistakes that i'm likely to make that I wan't to see.
Thank you for taking us with you on your learning adventure. I can tell you're frazzled, but you're doing well! Thank you again for doing this with us!
Omg 🎉what a beauty ❤enjoying and enjoyed every minute thanks streetips tips you never let anyone down with your videos I can’t wait until you hit one million subscribers because you deserve it thank again god bless cheers
Wow! The amout of work this requires is amazing! But I love it. So many colors too-orange, red, green, blue, yellow. You travel through the rainbow as you process it. I really wish I'd bought some palladium back in 2016 when it was only around $500 an ounce. I knew it was going to go up in value but I couldn't quite pull the trigger on it.
Great video. I think I yelled, too, when the palladium precipitated and I agree with you: How awesome is that? Congratulations! I don't know what the spot price for palladium was 2 years ago but right now that 3.6 gr button is worth $291.50 at spot. That's awesome. BTW, folks. If it was 3.6 gr of pure gold it would only be worth $182. 😉✌️
Wow amazing just amazing.. You are my favorite person to listen to an learn from . When it comes to matters like many hours spent to get this beautiful button of palladium... Thanks for all you do ✌🏼💗😊
Palladium refining is a very cool process!! I can only imagine what the palladium looked like when it was precipitated out!! Looked beautiful from this side!! Have a GREAT Day Sreetips!!!
Very nice button!! That would've been very hard for me to sell the first palladium button I ever made! I definitely understand the need of funds to cover cost! By the way, I wanted to tell you I'm sorry! I read the comment I made, from part 1 of this palladium refine. That was when I first started to watch your videos. I was a skeptic at first because I watched the ewaste videos first and I was very defensive (regarding ewaste). Now that I've watched almost all of your videos I have a whole new respect for you!!! You are an incredible teacher & an amazing self taught chemist!! You have really inspired me on so many levels!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!
When you had the peatre dish full of ashes. I thought for a moment that you weren't going to have results. But you showed a button of Palladium. Awesome!
Sreetips you're miles ahead of me on this subject. I precipitated a solution of pyrites that had sperrylite crystals that were sluiced from a creek here in Indiana and got those same beautiful colors. Ultimately I got a black metal mostly iron... I need that book Congradulations on Palladium!!! That WAS cool.
there's a spot I like to go to that has fine gold and alot of pyrite. When I found sperrylite in the heavies I thought I would attempt to leach a batch of them and precipitate the metal. I got an orange precipitate and tan/purple stanous tests. My attempt was a failure but worth the experience. Since then I've purchased several chemistry items hopefully for success in the future.
area46241 you can hokes book online, should be able to download it for free. It is a great help when starting out. I'd kill to be able to pull some gold from a river. Sounds fun
Very nice. Watched again 3 years later. It would be cool to show what different karate of gold mixed with platinum or palladium looks like. Like half 24k gold and half platinum. To show what the different alloys look like.
40:45 "Better not overshoot the HCL or well start putting stuff back into solution", I've run into this problem a few times.. "There it is!... wait... where the hell did it go?!" lol. I believe the term is *amphoteric* or *amphoterism* - _In chemistry, an amphoteric compound is a molecule or ion that can react both as an acid and as a base._
You know for a long time I always wondered why all these abandoned gold mines had tons of chemical by waste products in these big ponds that were so hazardous and watching you do refining of gold and silver and such I now know why they were there and how hazardous they actually are lots of copper
You vaporized more palladium than ill ever own..... :( very informative video though, You've made me knowledgeable enough to confidently refine all the precious metals now.... great valuable videos.
Awesome Sreetips... I never seen Paladium metal. Loved the boil over. Currently percipitating Silver myself... Keyboard mylars and electrical contacts. Hope I have enough to mint a coin of it.
Oh and I changed my youtube name from Jan Behang...didn't wanted to be associated with a wallpaper seller. Johannes de Sloper is Dutch for something like John the Scraptist.
What if I clean and break down all my electronics scrap that has good stuff in it and once I get a good large amount I’ll send it to you free of charge and you refine it and sell it? Then we can split the money? I collect and clean up all the precious metal bearing scrap send it to ya and then you refine it? We split the money equally? Would that work?
It seems like you have gone from solution to principate to solution to principate about 40 times! I'm so lost. I am so glad that you are still excited about what you are doing.
Ok maybe this is a dumb question but......... Instead of precipitating using the bubbling gas, could the crushed pool tab and hydrochloric simply be added to the palladium solution, and when the addition of either one no longer produces any precipitate, then do a stannous test?
Hi Sreetips. I'm really enjoying your vids. I was wondering if you are using a scrubber to filter the fumes exiting your fume hood, or are the toxic gases just blown out into the air?
You've been courageous when mixing beker 2 solution directly into the main solution. I watched the video for the second time, but I did not lose the emotion. Cool!
Streetips I have a question for you. It’s unrelated to refining. I’m using muriatic/hydrochloric acid 31.45 percent concentration. I’m using it to remove mill scale from steel. I have bought it from two different places. One is a pool chemical store and the other is a hardware store ( hardware store is almost a dollar cheeper per gallon). The acid from the pool store is or has a yellow tint, doesn’t foam up as quick when dripped on the concrete, and the fumes as soon as I open a new jug takes my breath away. The acid from the hardware store is clear, reacts instantly and vigorously when it drips on the concrete, and it has almost no smell when pouring. My question is did I buy some old crap from the pool store? Is this normal reaction with old acid? This might be a good video about the chemicals you use and how to know if they are any good.
Nick, if both acids are labeled 31.45% then there is really no difference. The yellow tint comes from the manufacturing process of the acid. I've gotten some bottles that are slightly tinted. But if the hardware store acid is cheaper then it's a no brainer.
Sreetips, I truly appreciate your videos. Very detailed and easy to follow. Im going to start with some simple gold refining myself after I get a small system set up to work with safely. I have only three simple questions. Is there a general book that can be bought with details for refining PM’s? Where would you suggest buying supplies such as beakers and non-OTC chemicals or substances needed for projects? And have you ever attempted refining rhodium? Thanks and keep putting out the videos!
No to rhodium. I buy chemicals on eBay and at ace hardware. dudadiesel.com is another source. Glassware on eBay. Free PDF download: Refining Precious Metal Wastes by C.M. Hoke all over the internet. I learned on the goldrefiningforum.com my user name there is “kadriver” you can view my rookie posts way back to 2010 when I first started refining.
Again an excellent video (both parts), thank you! I love watching your Clips, its like watching a tv series, wondering whats next...;-)I understand that you as an excellent refiner felt challenged by the PGM, especially your stockpot and catalytic converters in mind.But as you could see, handling with PGMs is a mess, there is always a loss of them to the waste material (filters, solutions, both has to be reworked some day, I bet, you will get another 2grams of Pd at least and some Pt) and the toxic-allergic hazard is always lurking. I recommend to always have an Epi-Pen or some similar epinephrine-delivering device in reach when handling with salts of PGMs (especially platinum). A heavy to severe anaphylactic reaction could (not will) occur suddenly after coming in contact with them on different occasions (e.g. inhalative, skin contact). This could happen within seconds to a minute. All symptoms which exceed skin reaction (e.g. bronchospasm with dyspnea, swelling of lips, tongue or pharolaryngeal, dizziness, intestinal symptoms with nausea, vomiting and/ or cramps and more) should lead to the immediate application of epinephrine 0.3-0.5mg parenterally (i.m.) and calling emergency services.Protection comes first, protect airways, eyes and skin (especially wearing gloves that reach up to the middle of the forearm).Thats why I keep it simple with PGMs. Holding them as solids in the stockpot as long as possible, when the day comes, drop the residual values with zinc (after the Gold drop), redissolve in AR and drop again with pure copper powder, repetitive washes in HCl (goes to stockpot) and then repetitive boils in distilled water. Collect as PGM-mix for hard times or nothing else to do. Thanks again for your really great work!
I've got some catalytic converters that I want to do so I can make a video. Also some catalytic beads. Plus the stock pot. Then I'll probably leave the PGMs alone.
You are a genius. Love your videos. Very educational. Great to see what’s involved and helps me make decisions on what is worth messing with and what may be to dangerous or to hard. Thanks for the education. Would you be interested in purchasing my electronic precious metal bearing scrap in bulk for a fair for both of us price? I’d give you a good deal
Great presentation! Thank you, how much Is palladium going for a Troy Ounce? I want to learn to extract it from the small capacitors on computer Circuit boards.
Suggested reading "Refining precious metal wastes by C.M.Hoke" spicifically page 148 refining Palladium using Sodium Chlorate (not to be confused with Sodium Chloride (Salt)) . Also check repurification of Palladium with Amonium Hydroxide if you want to achieve pure palladuim

I love sreetips video,i learn a lot from him,thank you sreetips you are genuine precious metal refiner, to support sreetips, watch fully advertisement tell the end, do not escape, to earn sreetips..😘
Question; I just refined 15 lbs of electrical contacts from an old industrial plant that I believe to have palladium. I'm not sure how I should get the palladium out of the filter bags. There is still some silver shot left in the bag mixed in with the dark grey slim. Any idea how to get the grey powder separate from the silver? How to get the grey powder out of the bag? Thanks
Yes Gary. I'll be getting a little more when I get the catalytic converters done (please see my latest video on selecting silver crystal for an update). The cats are leaching as I write this. Also, the stock pot will have some platinum. Once I get all the platinum from the cats, and the stock pot, then I'll try to refine it by doing a bromate hydrolysis.
You mentioned a concern about the concentrated ammonia damaging your fume hood blower. I would also be concerned about what the acid vapors and nitrous oxide gases are doing to it. You might be avoid this problem by reworking your hood air extraction system. The idea is to keep the contaminated air from blowing through the motor/fan at all. Think about the concept of the venturi jet pump - one application of which is to use a water jet to create a vacuum. If you use the blower to form an air jet, you can use the same principle to form a vacuum that will suck the air out of the hood without any of that contaminated air passing through the blower. There probably are designs available on the web for such an extraction hood design. My major concern would be efficiency of such a system. The airflow necessary to create a sufficient draft in the hood might be unacceptable.
great result .. you have possibilities. What do you do without the possibility? can not pd be refined with simpler methods and easily detectable precipitants?
Not that I know of. Not many people could have pulled this off. I relied heavily on my years of experience refining gold and silver even though gold and silver refining is like a cookie recipe compared to platinum group metals refining.
Yes, I was working with 7.5 grams, but it would be the same for 75 grams or 750 grams of material. But the times would be much greater. And don't for get the boil over.
this was such a joy to watch. i am used to watching your refining process which is more on the teaching side. but this one was different with you also learning something new. what a joy it was to watch. Btw i just noticed that this video was published on my birthday the 19th of april hehe. Please make more videos like this. and i will sure take a look at your ebay site. I would love to buy some of the stuff you make, but thing is i am from india, Mumbai. Dunno if you ship there. Please let me know.Thankyou
Awesome little button! RUclips doesn't seem to want to cooperate lately. I tried to post a comment on this vid, and it didn't go through. Maybe later I can repost what I said, but it's not likely that my words will be as meaningful as I first had thought and wrote them. So for now, I'll say that I thoroughly enjoyed this 2-parter, and I can't wait to see you tackle the stock-pot! And the chess set! :D
Have you been able to have your palladium button analysed? Like with an XRF gun? I'm curious because i read that acetylene bonds to platinum and to avoid it in smelting. Thought that since palladium has similar qualities to platinum, that maybe it did something similar. AWESOME VIDEOS! Thanks!!
If i put a bunch of computer boards on a barrel and add hydrocloric acid , how would i precipitate the iron/ steel that is in the solution? Thanks brother . watching all your videos and learning as we go.

If you use the blower to form an air jet, you can use the same principle to form a vacuum that will suck the air out of the hood without any of that contaminated air passing through the blower. There probably are designs available on the web for such an extraction hood design.
My major concern would be efficiency of such a system. The airflow necessary to create a sufficient draft in the hood might be unacceptable.
great result ..
you have possibilities.
What do you do without the possibility?
can not pd be refined with simpler methods and easily detectable precipitants?
Not that I know of. Not many people could have pulled this off. I relied heavily on my years of experience refining gold and silver even though gold and silver refining is like a cookie recipe compared to platinum group metals refining.
so much apreciate
Thank you .
Are you doing this at home? If so, what must I do to be legally able to accomplish this at home. What equipment must I acquire? Please advise?
Fume hood is a must
Do you have a video where you explain how you deal with waste liquids at the end of a process like this?
Yes, waste treatment
Could this process be safely scalled up to process say 100 liters of material? I have ewaste of several tons of computer scrap.
Yes, I was working with 7.5 grams, but it would be the same for 75 grams or 750 grams of material. But the times would be much greater. And don't for get the boil over.
Y se puede precipitar con Yoduro de potasio....?
this was such a joy to watch. i am used to watching your refining process which is more on the teaching side. but this one was different with you also learning something new. what a joy it was to watch. Btw i just noticed that this video was published on my birthday the 19th of april hehe. Please make more videos like this. and i will sure take a look at your ebay site. I would love to buy some of the stuff you make, but thing is i am from india, Mumbai. Dunno if you ship there. Please let me know.Thankyou
Excellent, glad you enjoyed it. I only ship to USA locations and that's why you don't find my eBay store. Sorry about that.
ohh too bad. your videos will have to suffice for now i guess. hopefully in the future then. all the best and keep making quality stuff :)
I'm thoroughly enjoying your videos. I do have to wonder what your monthly HCL budget is though. :)
Same!
Thank you for the good video. Next time for the final step try to use ashless filter it will help you a lot.
Awesome little button!
RUclips doesn't seem to want to cooperate lately.
I tried to post a comment on this vid, and it didn't go through.
Maybe later I can repost what I said, but it's not likely that my words will be as meaningful as I first had thought and wrote them.
So for now, I'll say that I thoroughly enjoyed this 2-parter, and I can't wait to see you tackle the stock-pot!
And the chess set! :D
They are coming up.
I think i've watched this series 6 or 7 times :)
Have you been able to have your palladium button analysed? Like with an XRF gun? I'm curious because i read that acetylene bonds to platinum and to avoid it in smelting. Thought that since palladium has similar qualities to platinum, that maybe it did something similar. AWESOME VIDEOS! Thanks!!
I turned one in to the big refiner, it assayed with XRF at 992
@@sreetips Oh excellent! Can't complain with that!!
In the welding shop we do everything in a fume hood anything to keep the crap out of the face and lungs
If we use a combination of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, should the same steps continue or is it different?
Not quite sure about that
Hi Streetips, thank you for another great video. Do you plan to make video about Indium refining?
I don't think so, platinum and palladium are as far as I'll probably go.
Ok. Thank you for answer.
If i put a bunch of computer boards on a barrel and add hydrocloric acid , how would i precipitate the iron/ steel that is in the solution? Thanks brother . watching all your videos and learning as we go.
Eddie, I don’t know. I suppose zinc would precipitate the iron. I’ve never tried it.
