    Buy platinum group metals. They're valuable because of their rarity and their use as catalysts in many chemical processes. They don't really get used up in the reactions and can be reverted to their metallic state.

      Plus ordering radioactive molecules. I remember ordering radiolabeled drugs as marker substrates that were very expensive. I'd like to see a video on how they synthesize radiolabeled molecules with the radioactive atoms in specified positions. I have some idea, but haven't looked into it. I'd especially be interested in the logistics behind it as some can't be stored for a long time and there's low demand. Not really related, but I remember one professor ordering a $30,000 rat and also placing an order a new mass spectrometer and associated equipment that was just over a million at work, though I can't remember if that was for one or two. That one made me really appreciate that other labs at school let us use their equipment.

    one of the many downsides of these process is that depending on the reagents used, you may not know the contaminants in them so it could add a significant ammount of impurities to your product that could havle a drastic effect on the price. one place might buy your 5 grams of Chloroauric acid for whatever ammount, but if its only like 95%-98% pure the place might not even want to buy it. from what ive gathered from metal refiners and chemists who do stuff like this, any significant ammount of impurities will tank your earnings, plus even if your product is pretty pure you still have to buy pure reagents, which are expensive, so this is really only viable if youre doing it in a large scale (50+ gram ammounts).

    Regarding the superconductor, it's much "worse" when you want to make usable "wires" from it to make magnets.

The endproduct, a thin tape, costs in the order of 50 euro per meter these days (but quickly going down thanks to private fusion power companies like, Tokamak Energy, ordering thousands of kilometers of the stuff)

      If you can prove the efficiency you can get a decent rate for sure. This can be as simply as logging the exact quantities of each metal and reagent used and compare that to the mass of the end result. Obviously the hobbyist will have more loss than an industrial setup -- but people like @sreetips can produce high purity chemical products. (He mostly does gold / silver extractions and purifications, but the purity is 99.99% -- so an experienced hobbyist could produce similar results with the same level of expertise.

Often, just flipping through a chemical catalog will get your attention. People will also pay well for a nearly pure sample of a chemical that can be gotten cheaply in its technical grade form. So you don't have to know or do exotic chemistry, exactly, just be willing to do long, drawn out purification. Either approach might make you some serious $.

They burn the phones in a fire and pick out the molten metals out of it to get a few cents...because that is all the buyer will pay...because it mixes easily with other metals and gets lost in the mix. Besides that burning the plastic is giving off a toxic smoke. It is a complex chemical process to get to pure gold. The ram chips are getting smaller so there is less gold in them so you need to burn thousands of phones. Hell, if I collect soda cans it will be faster to make money. & easier.

      he haven't made money unless he will be able to sell it - that's the big issue - to sell chemicals legally (at least in EU) you need to comply to several heavy regulations - such compliance is many times more expensive than that
      he can try eBay but good luck - no professional labs purchase items there - but you may be lucky with another amateur, hobbyist or a small company that stumbles upon you
      even if you offer it to Merck, they would buy it at lowest price possible and resell it with huge margin

That's my kind of modern day real life video game skill farming for money

    • @athmaid
      @athmaid 2 года назад +1

      The problem is even small research labs probably won't buy it because potential impurities aren't worth the money saved. Testing for those impurities and optimising the synthesis costs money, so in the end you will probably be just as expensive if you wanna do it properly. For use in your hobby lab it's probably good enough though
