Nice video but this perfectly shows why I stopped collecting and processing these things. Just not worth the effort or time. But you stuck through it and showed people something useful.
I don't want to be "that guy" but dude... 1) never add water to acid, you always do it the other way around. Dissolution of acids is exothermic and adding water to acid can cause a small steam explosion. 2) dissolution of NaOH in water is very exothermic, adding such a huge amount of dry NaOH to such a small amount of water all at once cannot possibly be a good idea 3) do not mess around with buckets full of nitric acid while wearing crocs for god's sake 4) DO NOT light torches with a lighter! It is a very dangerous habit to get into, one day you WILL have a brain fart and light it with the nozzle pointed at your hand and you will have a bad day. Buy a proper torch striker, they're inexpensive.
8g of silver is worth around 5€. The nitric acid he used alone is most likely more expensive...There's absolutely no way this makes any sort of financial sense unless you're doing it on a massive scale to justify the time and can make sure none of the reagents are wasted. Interesting as a curiosity but that's about it.
Great work! I noticed that the liquid looked blue making me think there was still a little silver in the solution. I was wondering, what if you drop the P.H. and try to precipitate the rest out of solution? or is it not worth it? Also, can this be done without nitric acid? I was thinking of trying hydrochloric acid with a bit of table salt. Nitric is hard to come by that's why I ask.
Good job! You has a big stock pot of silver. You made your crucibles? Make a video show 's how make too. With complete humility! Silver chloride became silver oxide when sodium hydroxide was added. And when sugar was added, metallic silver was given.. Waithing for a new video. A hug!
Good evening my friend. Nice video. The one thing was watching for is one other precious metal in the crystals. Palladium is small amounts are in crystals as well, and a higher amount in the ones that are used in the older pc board in any music gear.
So.. 2.2lbs of components, all this time and effort for roughly $5 USD worth of silver.. to recover the cost of the chemicals alone would require you to gather about 16-20lbs of Crystal oscillators only, which will be no simple task in itself. Idk exactly how many you could expect to be on a board but no more than a few for sure. So now we're talking 60 plus motherboards. That alone makes me think that silver recovery on a scale this small is in now way profitable
Wow, now I understand why they say silver gets discarded. 500ml of nitric far exceeds the value of 8g silver. Recovery is about $5.50. I have seen it done by removing the metal case but that takes forever and is still not economical. Thx for the video.
I'm curious, can silver chloride be melted? I also have dry silver sulfide in filters can it be melted? Or does it have to be made into a silver oxide process?
@@richardperkins3612it's literally a compound (combination of elements) and silver is silver. If you remove milk from your coffee/milk/sugar drink, (a cup of coffee), does it weigh less? You don't have to be a genius but this is dangerous, like death, so you need to learn and understand before mixing chemicals and any of this stuff
It's so cheap in India, they throw it in each other's faces over the slightest of grievances. Pretty sure you can buy it by the quart in vending machines.
Never add water to acids or caustic. Add the acids and caustics to the water. This way the water can disapate the heat. When adding water to the a/c the solution can explode out of the container due to heat.
It's not about dollar worth. Silver is a store of value to get away from fiat currency. One day that little silver dot will have probably the worth of gold or more.
@@mysterybuyer3738 that's true, however silver is naturally much more abundant than gold and also gold has properties silver doesn't come close to, such as thermal/electric conductivity, lack of oxidization etc. Side note I didn't mean to put the emoji in my last comment, removed it because that made it seem like I was trying to be rude
All that work for less than $8.00 US. I have about 15lbs of those things saved up. That's a lot of squeezing for a tiny drop of juice, off to the shred pile they go.
92% of the weight is stainless-steel in those crystals another 1.8% is a crystal substance, 6% is resin, the silver is plated only micron's thick (one thousandth of a millimeter). You are wasting your time. Better to just get a job.
Those chemicals cause that reaction only in silver and he got a lot more than microns thick plating out of a kg of oscillations. So you’re clearly wrong

Exactly. It's a nice hobbyist experiment, but totally impractical.
Excellent. Thank you for your teachings. Please take care 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for the demonstration.
I've been saving these too (300g), but seeing the yeild from this effort, I will never do this.

? Where's the silver, if it's not in the case or base?
It's plated on a little crystal disk thus crystal oscillator

Puré Silver
Great job my friend
Thanks 👍
Nice .. good video bro
Silver pure .9999
😀👍
Base is made of non magnetic AcidResistant Steel .. it's about 2 -3 bucks per 1000 gram on local scrapyard.. 💪 Good job as usual Bro .. 👍
I've noticed that the base is magnetic.
So is about 0,5 buck per kilo .. 😢
@@odbierzvatpit2172right. Roughly 200 a ton.
Oh! That's what "Steal made" means. Any idea what alloy that is? Acid resistant steel would be very useful to have.
Question, why would you choose to recover silver as opposed to gold from the oscillators?
No gold in thous Cristals.
@@Jon-da-bad good reason!
Wooooow its amazing
✌️✌️
Result is per the expectations. I usually get 6-8 g per kg. 🌟 👍
I'm curious, can silver chloride be melted? I also have dry silver sulfide in filters can it be melted? Or does it have to be made into a silver oxide process?
Has to be converted 🤙🏼
Caustic soda turned silver chloride to silver oxide, and when you added sugar to the silver oxide it turned into silver metal
Can silver chloride be melted into silver? If yes what are the pros or cons for melting silver chloride.
@@franchi8601 toxic gas releases if not turned
@@jasong8377 is there a weight loss in recovery If melting silver chloride?

Jeeez the amount of acids for that piece of silver.
Not even $0.30 in india

When dusan dissolved it with nitric acid it's became like mud i want to know how you dissolved so perfectly ?
Super👍! do you have to open the oscillator? Isn't there silver inside?
excellent, nice stuff buddy.. good result..
✌️✌️
the fume is very dangerous, so let's just let it drift into the neighbour's yard.
That guy mows his lawn at 7am on the dot every Sunday, and doesnt work. Eff that guy.
Crystal oscillator is worthless to process for silver recovery.Spent acid and time.Better just sell as steel scrap.
How long does this process take
Bonita joya muy chula. Saludos chicos 😊

What's the difference with gold plated bottom occlators
Gold instead of silver. That's the difference
@@SirSwanky-zd6el gold inside also

Cool to see the recovery process. Crazy all that work and it's only worth like 6 dollars?
Thought the same

@@mysterybuyer3738 silver will never be as valuable as gold but it is a good hedge against inflation
@@nevercertain There is less silver above ground available for investment than gold. All it takes is a few deep pockets to buy the whole market up.

Why seasalt instead of copper?
Couldn't you just add a copper pipe to the silver nitrate?
Yes

That’s wrong. Salt turned silver nitrate into silver chloride. Sodium hydroxide turned silver chloride into silver oxide. Sugar turned silver oxide into elemental metallic silver.
Во👍 классно
Awesome .. but the stuff and energy used was more that the cost of the silver sadly
save as future dimes when silver goes up
Huff the orange smoke for a good time😂😂😂😂😂

Yes

It is a loss bussiness
looks like burning money, waising ton of time and just polution for really no reason. not even educational
Money is money. I mean you could drive a Tesla or what lithium batteries do more damage to pollution than this. So keep up the good work Trinity!!!!!
