Silver from contacts. 999 silver 💖from silver and silver plated contacts 🧪🙂

In this video I will show how to extract pure silver from silver and silver-plated contacts that can be found in almost any electronic device. I hope my video will be useful to someone, and I hope you will like my video.

Thank you so much for aluminum information I was not know that!

[@akgoldbear7669]

My pleasure. Yes, aluminum easily converts silver chloride into silver nitrate. If the purity of silver is important to you, it is very important to boil the silver nitrate in hydrochloric acid. Thanks for your time and comment. I wish you good holidays 🙂🎄

Nice video but it was a bit hard to hear silver nitrate every time instead of silver powder. You don't have any silver nitrate after you made the cottage cheese.

[@akgoldbear7669]

Thanks for your time and comment. 🖐I try to call everything correctly. Periodic table Silver Ag, chemical formula of silver(I) nitrate is AgNO3. Converted silver nitrate from silver chloride is not yet silver. If you will take silver and rub it with a fine file, you will get silver powder. I wish you good holidays 🙂🎄

The only way up to this point I've seen silver refined to 999 was thru an electrolytic silver cell. So it's really nice to know that there are other ways of doing it. Don't get me wrong the silver cells silver crystals are beautiful but this seems to eliminate several steps in order to produce a highly refined product. Thank you so much AK. Videos like this prove there is still so much for me to learn. Every day is an opportunity to grow. Thank you for sharing your craft with us on youtube and thank you for your expert way of explaining the process. As always have a wonderful day! And always love what you do.

[@akgoldbear7669]

An electrolytic silver cell is the best option for obtaining the purest silver. But it takes a very long time for silver to crystallize. Many many days. And I agree that the crystals looks beautiful. Thank you for continuing to watch my videos and commenting, I appreciate it🖐 I wish you a good holiday, Merry Christmas 🙂🎄

[@silver_salvage_savage]

This is not .999 It'll be close, probably .97 or .98 It takes me approximately 3 days to harvest 1500 grams from my silver cell when it's in operation.

[@waynoswaynos]

Nice one friend. My fingers get black just watching this video! Your HHO torch does a great job. And I just wanted to share that when I add salt Silver Nitrate to make Silver Chloride, if I add HCl after the point where no more precipitates with salt alone, I get some more AgNo3 with the addition of HCl. You may be throwing silver away. But hopefully you are recycling salts from your used solutions.

[@akgoldbear7669]

Hello. It takes a long time before something is thrown away. I save all solutions and sediments for at least a couple of months. And always after a couple of months I get some more silver or gold. I store all solutions and sediments in waste buckets. 🙂🖐

[@waynoswaynos]

@@akgoldbear7669 Try some HCl in the last salted solution and see if more silver drops.

Yes, that is right. And there is a microscopic amount of palladium in this capacitor. Even if you take ten such capacitors, after separating the palladium from them, you will not be able to see it. To see palladium you need at least a kilogram. Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy holidays to you 🎄🙂

I always use sodium hydroxide, and then glycerin to get my silver powder do you think it is cleaner to cement it out with aluminum??

[@akgoldbear7669]

Both methods are good. The main thing is to clean the silver oxide well. Silver oxide after sodium hydroxide and sugar must be washed with boiling water many times to remove all the glucose. Silver oxide after aluminum must be boiled a couple of times in hydrochloric acid. The reduction of silver with sodium hydroxide occurs five times faster 🙂

[@BohumilGraman]

No silver nitrate, but silver.

[@akgoldbear7669]

Silver nitrate is silver nitrate. Silver nitrate is not yet metallic silver. Periodic table Silver Ag, chemical formula of silver(I) nitrate is AgNO3. Converted silver nitrate from silver chloride is not yet silver. Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy holidays to you 🎄🙂

[@BohumilGraman]

@@akgoldbear7669 Silver nitrate is silver nitrate- that's about the only thing right in your post. 1) Could you please write the formula in which silver chloride becomes silver nitrate? 2) Since you won't write the formula (because it doesn't exist), could you at least explain how chlorine turned into nitrogen? Because there is no nitrogen in the solution, or where did the nitrogen come from in the first place?

[@akgoldbear7669]

@@BohumilGraman Silver chloride AgCl is formed as a white precipitate when soluble silver salts react. Ag+ + CI- = AgCl↓ Silver nitrate AgNO₃ is a reagent for hydrochloric acid, since when interacting with salts, silver chloride is formed HCl+AgNO3⟶AgCl↓+HNO3 ... NaCl+AgNO3⟶AgCl↓+NaNO3 And only after melting AgNO₃ silver nitrate at 962 °C does metallic silver Ag formed. And now I'm going to drink green tea with lemon, raspberries and honey!

Why don't you use the metal holding the silver contact cause alot of them are silver plated aswell

All other metals from breakers which was silver plated i store in my storage. I will remove silver from such large parts by electrolysis. Silver is cheap and dissolving them in nitric acid, just like contacts, is not profitable. Thanks for your time and comment. I wish you good holidays 🙂🎄

@11:15 I want to know where the necessary ions came from when you combined AgCl + HCl + Al in a small amount of water to get silver Nitrate?

Hello. I misspoke. From silver nitrate I gat silver chloride and converted the silver chloride to silver oxide AgNO3⟶AgCl⟶Ag₂O₂ and then the silver oxide I melted to metallic silver 🙂

[@jasonsummit1885]

It was powdered silver metal, not silver nitrate. AGNO3 is a white crystalline powder, what you had before rinsing and melting was "cement" silver.

[@alfredweaver5390]

If you were to boil it one more time in hydrochloric acid, wouldn’t that raise the purity to .9999?

[@akgoldbear7669]

Hello. I boiled silver oxide in hydrochloric acid twice and that was enough. It all depends on the amount of aluminum mixed with silver oxide. When i cleaning gold or silver, I understand on the spot whether it’s worth boiling more or whether it’s enough. Usually the eyes say: oh no, you need to boil more, or oooooo the material is absolutely clean! If after boiling the solution crystal clear, like water from the sink, that means enough. With coming New Year to you. 🙂

[@silver_salvage_savage]

Silver chloride converts to silver oxide then silver metal with the lye and sugar method, not nitrate. Silver nitrate is the silver dissolved in nitric acid. There should be more silver. Perhaps in the hcl used to rinse the silver oxide. I do contacts from automotive relays and yielded %61 silver by weight. I did 31.1 grams of contacts in nitric, cemented it on copper and got 19.1 grams silver. Again, not .999 but will be food for my silver cell In this process, 300ml of nitric was used. Thats almost if not enough nitric to process the whole batch. Ive never used sulphuric in refining silver, ever. Plenty of videos out here on how to refine silver using several methods. All are better than this one, sorry not sorry
