Is gold in electronics worth extracting? The short answer to the question is: yes…there is profit in recycling gold (and other precious metals) from electronic devices. The longer answer is that it definitely requires resources to get this resource (the old adage, it takes money to make money, if you will!). Sourcing your electronic scrap will also be something that you need to plan in advance of startup. While electronics have precious metals, its in teeny tiny amounts so you need a LOT of scrap to make this venture worthwhile. Similarly, with the need to have labor on the inbound and the outbound, the commodity produced will NOT cover 100% of your costs, so you’ll need to establish the right fee to support your operations. Often you’ll be competing against non-profit or subsidized operations in this realm so being able to differentiate your service will also help you to be successful.
@@Prince-nt4dcThe sulfuric needs to be 70% +. Battery acid will work but it takes longer because it needs to evaporate off the extra water while heating. When enough water evaporates it will begin to digest the plastic. It is very very dangerous because sulfuric acid loves water. It will suck the water out of your skin in seconds. While doing so a thermal reaction takes place and it can reach 3 to 400 degrees F. Thus removing (burning) your skin much faster than you can react. Get enough on you and it can go to the bone. If you do it , do NOT use glass (crack) and acid everywhere. Stainless steel only
Some ppl say its not worth..but its seriously worth of wt we r spending here its just a few ml of chemicals tat costs less than gold so its worth. think abt the quantity if ur making with 1kg ic chips u get 2.3g of pure gold jus imagine 100kg of ic chips u can make 230g pure gold the rates of gold and chemicals may very.. Thanks for the video.. Brother
You made 0.07 grams of gold at today's price, 52 dollars a gram, it would be about 3.6 dollars but I guess the real purpose of the video is to teach how to extract gold from those chips, great job!
This all looked good up until right after the nitric acid step. Instead of tweezing the wire off just put it all in aqua Regia and dissolve the gold and precipitate it out with SMB. That way you get all the gold. By tweezing the wire your leaving the gold solder and when you melted that bit of gold that was not all the gold from those chips. That little ball of wire was way to small for what I seen pulled off. I believe they was some deception in the amount shown recovered.
He is explaning how to get gold with minimum spending. So he spends just sulfuric acid, if we go to use more substances i think it worth just if we do in big amount of scraps. This is also good, we buy just sulfuric acid and of course we spend our free time to collect gold from chips after desolving thats it :)
@@mirishow the problem is if all the gold is not recovered it is a inefficient process. It is to hard enough to collect and process to not be efficient and recover all the values.
@@mirishow If you want to do it even cheaper, use incineration to burn off the plastic, that will eliminate the need for sulfuric acid. The fact is if you are okay to work with strong acids as he is showing, then the only thing needed to add for extracting the gold chemically instead of mechanically with tweezers is 1% more nitric acid, some table salt, cotton or filter paper to filter the liquid and a piece of iron scrap. Table salt + nitric acid makes aqua regia and dissolves the gold. Filter off the dies and other garbage. Use iron + the sulfuric acid from the beginning on iron scrap to make kopperas, filter. Copperas + gold chloride precipitates the clean gold. Melt. Easy and cheap process. I wouldn't be surprised if his losses were around 5% doing it mechanical instead of chemically. I see this video not as a recommendation of how to do it but a proof that it can be done this way too.
3.39 dollars of gold assuming it's pure. This being for demonstration purposes I'm guessing normal working quantities and yields are much higher with similar amounts of chemicals used?

yeah i see a video in a poor country they make this with 150 kg scrap and they get 355g of gold after with aproximativ 200l of chimical so it's worth
@@jokerda8857 sir all ok, but excatly where is buying ic chip scrap

Ok
Remember he is not in America. So the cost of things is a little different.
Very nice work
I love that scale! 👍
Best video
It looks like there may be gold under the glass where the wires attach.
Do you know if it is gold or copper?
Thank you for all your videos!

What is the cost of the sulfuric acid compared to the value of the gold?
Do not boil the IC chips. It will cause loss of gold. Rather wait for 5-6 days

Nice sharing
hi how much time it should be boiled with sulphuric acid with 80-90 degrees
Depending upon quantity, average 1hr minimum

Javier Valenzuela yes
Do you think using AR will get more gold out of this
what about the other pieces you put to the aside, that looked like gold also on the under side of the chip in a square of gold.
Looks impressive but contains just a tiny amount of gold. About 1/20'th of the gold in the top part..
C très simple merci
can muriatic acid be substituted for sulfuric acid?
No. But you could use incineration instead.
che percentuale di acido nitrico stai usando per questo processo?
what sulfuric acid do you use? 30 ° / 38 ° or 96 °
98%
@@liliputjack8308 96 too

How many kg of scrap to arrive to this result?
This is not a cost effective method for gold extraction.

Can we just use only AR and forget about using nitric acid
What is ar
Parabens
You must be very rich
What is sulfuric acid?
You can find it in car batteries
Ok good you
How many minutes to boil that acid dude 😄
Upto dissolve graphic part (black coating)
