Thats why I love the third world. They keep me to the lifestyle I am accustomed to. I wish I had a few of them here. I would work them so hard for my enrichment.
Are we all going to ignore the fact that all those compressors were also charged with freon gas. You cant even take a fridge to a salvage yard or landfill in the United States with a charged compressor.
I dumped a 5 ton unit for fun once just cut the lines with pruning shears. I have also only driven economy cars for the last 40 years and I build super efficient homes. Working on starting an EV conversion business. 😊😊😊
Freon isnt used around 50 years anymore, most of those use liquid gas derivates. And newer use still cleaner than those. Only thing that we pay twentyfold price for ''cleaner''.

I like how the toxic fumes get unloaded into the field of growing food, is that how they recycle it by feeding to the plants then the humans eat it, that's one way I guess.
The red fumes are dinitrogen tetroxide that are the very toxic part to humans.. quite deadly, but will breakdown into nitrogen dioxide, as it becomes dilute in the air it's relatively harmless to plants, may reduce plant growth, but nowhere near as dangerous as to humans.
Reminds me of Turkey back in the mid 80s when I was stationed in Izmir. I kid you not, watched a crew of men who were in 3-piece suits digging up the gas line to find the leak and using a cigarette lighter to check for gas. Glad they didn't find the leak when I was walking on by!
Have you watched any of the ship breaking ingredients videos? Their government stepped in, and the safety requirements have increased by about 10 to 15 % 😢😢😢
And this is why American companies wanted the NAFTA , North America Free Trade opened up in the early 90's. No OSIA regulations and cheap labor. And still charge big bucks for their products.

FYI, there is no freon in the compressors. Freon is supposed to be extracted from the system before the compressors are separated and sent to these recyclers.
@@narenmuni9849 Are you saying that with a straight face? Maybe if the compressors were brought in from Europe or the US but if they are of local origin I doubt any freon was saved.

Ahhh...the wonderful aroma of nitric acid clouds, as they waft through the wheat field in the morning. And what an innovative concept on work place safety; pajamas, sandals, bare hands, and no respirators to ease the burden of cumbersome personal protective equipment while working with dangerous chemicals😁🤤😵💀
It’s like watching a Sreetips video. Dissolve the silver with nitric acid and the cementing the silver out with copper. I love how the dude is standing in the toxic nitrous fumes.
The silver is precipitated out as Chloride (that's common salt they add to the mixture). That's how the copper and silver are separated. The white powder for smelting is silver chloride.
These videos are the opposite of asmr. It makes me anxious and feel so sorry for the workers without basic safety gear. Boots, masks and safety glasses minimum! You'll save more in the long run ! Happier works = more productivity . Better health = more productivity. Never be cheap about safety. This right here is why third world countries stay third world, they won't take the necessary steps to progress, their bosses are too dam cheap to provide the mere basics. Man... its heart breaking to see.
It’s funny that people think these people aren’t doing this ethically. Where the hell do you think your recycling goes? These guys process YOUR trash. Be grateful it’s not you doing this and shut up. Your “global warming” narrative is exhausting.
After watching sreetips and then this, I don't want to know how to make sausage!😝 Where are they dumping the copper nitrate solution? I shudder to think!
I watched a video not long ago about a noodle factory. They milled locally grown bitter cassava for the starch to make the noodles. The runoff water from the cassava soaks poisoned the local river system and killed all the aquatic life... Even insects were all dead. They did not talk about this in the video, but they mentioned that the noodle factory was going to have to close. This locally grown cassava had the highest concentration of cyanogenic glycosides that anyone had ever seen, when mixed with water enzymes converted the glycoside into hydrogen cyanide and into the creek it went.
People in this region are amazing at processes. I Love watching them. And all of those compressors you see are from our economy and demand for convenience.
Kinda reminds me of the movie "Blade" with Wesley Snipes and the late Kris Kristofferson....where 'Whistler' is smoking a cigarette and pumping/spilling gasoline into a vintage Dodge Charger.
Nitric acid is a strong oxidizing agent and can react with many metals. When nitric acid is used on a mixture of metals, metals less noble than silver (such as iron, copper, zinc) will oxidize and dissolve as ionized salts, while silver, which is more noble, does not react as strongly and can thus be separated.
Spin the wheel of misfortune after working there. What will it be? Skin cancer, lung cancer, lymphoma, leukemia, birth defects for your children. Very sad that the poor are exploited.

These poor country's have no respect for the environment as long as it puts food on the plate we all know recycling is a good thing but at what price health and safety is non - existent...
If you are a poor person, are you more concerned about feeding yourself/family for the week or putting some nasty chemicals into the environment? It doesn't matter if your environment is clean if you are going to starve to death otherwise.
Can't see how they make a profit. I know labor is cheap, but Oxy acetylene, propane, and nitric acid are not. If they got the compressors for free and the labor for free, it still doesn't look like they would be in the black. Those 5 silver bars look like about 10 troy ozs each, at 300$ per bar...provided those five were the output for the day, their neting about 1500$ in silver. Very thin margin.
Silver is more of a byproduct of the operation - not the main income source. If you click on the the uploaders channel you'll see they used the same footage in a video about recycling copper since the motors inside the compressors contain 1.5 to 5lbs of copper each. I've also heard of these things getting flushed, refilled with oil and sold as "remanufactured" compressors for ACs and fridges.

Silver is more of a byproduct of the operation - not the main income source. If you click on the the uploaders channel you'll see they used the same footage in a video about recycling copper since the motors inside the compressors contain 1.5 to 5lbs of copper each. I've also heard of these things getting flushed, refilled with oil and sold as "remanufactured" compressors for ACs and fridges.
I'm guessing the fuels are cheap there, without EPA regulations and taxes. Fuels and Chemicals are probably priced lower then USA.
don't worry dude, they have a lot of inventory. they should break even by next week or so..

It only works there because there are no regulations like OSHA and EPA, and the labor cost is a couple of USD per day.
