    For the curious the big items are microwave duplexers for the older cell phone systems. Each compartment is like a little bell that rings at a particular microwave frequency. There is a series of these bells tuned to each receive and transmit frequency. With a sequence of these they can connect both the transmitter and receiver to the same antenna and still have a separation factor of a million million!!!!! The latest cell phone systems use much higher frequencies and need much smaller bells but just as many.

    I worked as a chemical engineer for a precious metals reclaim company and developed my own process for precipitating silver from silver nitrate, which is the waste product after dissolving gold in aqua regia, nitric and sulphuric acid. It is terrifying to watch these men, with no protective gear, no respirators, some barefoot, handling dangerous chemicals and 2,500 degree crucibles. The red fumes from the nitric acid are especially toxic, and I had to engineer a fume scrubbing and neutralization system. I admire their effort, but am shocked to see such dangerous working conditions. I know.

      I’m not shocked this has been a long standing trend. Scrap gets sent to these undeveloped countries to recover these precious metals. You should see the videos of the ship breaking yards in India. I feel for these people but never surprised about what they go through.

    apart from the safety issues...they actually melt the silver chloride in that crucible together with soda. this way they will always loose some silver because of the bubbling of CO2 that can be observed upon adding soda and also due the fact that silver chloride itself boils at high temperatures.
    better to wash the silver chloride with hot water to remove potential lead , then treat it with hot sodium hydroxide aqueous solution to convert it to silver oxide. wash, dry and then load the silver oxide into the crucible for melting.

Wow, could they not put it on a platform, use a hose and allow it to take a minute to pour in (while they watch from a distance)? Is getting a tall table (which would increase worker safety 100 fold) really that hard?

      These are older generation 2g and 3g cellphone microwave duplexers. Pakistan is now mostly on 4G Cellphone network, so older network equipment is being wisely recycled, and No these are not stolen. In western countries they probably throw them in landfills.

    This is exceedingly unsafe. Do at least get a fan, as these brown nitrous oxide fumes are super bad. I figure that asking for medicinal eye baths is too much for such a work environment, so instead have at least 2-3 big buckets of fresh water nearby that you can shower a person with, in case he gets large amounts acid onto himself or a bit on his face. Prepare a 50:50 mixture of sand and soda and always have it somewhere nearby - use it to neutralize spilled acid that got on the floor. Get some safety eye goggles if you can.

      seriously... we had far more safety gear just in college chemistry handling thiocyanate or some similarly nasty substance on rare occasions (we had it in a fume hood but you needed a mask, gloves and googles to approach, and always keep fume hood door as closed as possible). These guys pour acid into water (great plan!) daily and have no gear at all... yikes.

They make the guys I work with look like a bunch of fairies. I'd love to see their version of a swat team, their bomb disposal guy would probably only be wearing a pair of boxers and be defusing the bomb by cutting the wires with a piece of broken glass. What they lack in health and safety they make up for in skill. Also, I'm making fun of them but really, me and the guys I work with all have scars and loads of health problems. These guys look like they just started their job. I'd hire them and treat them like gold, they are the most industrious and ingenious workers these lads.
