That's a really good idea. I doubt it could be used to remove absolutely 100% of the lead in solution but I think it would do a good job of removing a large majority of it. I might even give it a go at some point to see how well it works. I'll probably need to get some lead testing strips...

I have refined a lot of battery acid and sometimes it gets something floating around in it while distilling that causes it to bump like crazy so what i do is distill off most of the water using a heating mantle for better heat control and distill slowly until it starts to fume in the boiling flask and then run it through a fritz and that seems to help a lot to stop it bumping, then distill with gas and if it starts bumping to much let it cool and filter again.. you won't get a lot of acid from just 1 old battery, it's only about 10 to 15% on average at a guess..

Surprised you didn't do a quick titration to prove the acid consideration with the battery in this 'dead' state. I thought it changed with the state of charge, converting the Sulfuric Acid to lead sulphate on the plates(This lowering the density) and returning the sulpher back to the acid when it's charge.
@ScrapScience
@ScrapScience 4 жыл бұрын
Yeah, in hindsight I probably should have checked the actual concentration. I was kind of trying to keep the video as short as I could though, and didn't even think of it. You're right on the fact that the acid is more concentrated (or more dense) in the charged state, in fact that's exactly how the hydrometer piece would measure the charge state of the battery, through checking the density of the electrolyte. Hopefully by charging the battery as much as I could before extracting the acid, I might have got a reasonable concentration, but I guess I'll have to check.

I'd love to have this assumption proven wrong and find out that even 'dead' batteries left on an aggressive charger overnight(15v, few amps, leave it to 'boil') can yield a descent amount of usable acid.

AI is suggesting that it should be possible to precipitate out the lead sulfate if given enough time, although you may have to dilute the acid significantly to help this along. Re-concentrating the acid afterwards by boiling is relatively simple for sulfuric acid because it has a very high boiling point, so very little is lost in the process. I wouldn't do it inside without a fume hood though, just to be on the safe side. This isn't something I have tried myself.

@@ctsirkass The boiling point of water is highly dependent on what you've got in solution. With sulfuric acid solutions, the boiling point of water stays around 100 C until you get to about 50% concentration. After this point, removing the water starts to require more thermal energy, and the boiling point rises exponentially to above 300 C once you get towards the really concentrated stuff. You can look up 'sulfuric acid concentration vs boiling point' on Google images if you want a graph of how this works.

Lead sulphate has very low solubility in water and it is even less soluble in sulphuric acid. According to Wilkipedia, the Ksp for lead sulphate is, 2.13 x 10−8 (20 °C). This means that for a sulphate concentration of 1M, the lead concentration will be 10−8M (ie 0.00000001M). The atomic weight of lead is just over 200g/mol, so a saturated solution of lead sulphate in 1M sulphuric acid would contain 0.000002g

@ScrapScience 4 жыл бұрын
That’s true if you only look at the direct solubility of the lead sulfate, but there are other things going on as well. Primarily, in high concentrations of sulfuric acid, lead sulfate will react to form the much more soluble ‘lead bisulphate’, which complicates things a lot. It’s very difficult to tell how much lead is actually in solution, but it is enough to cause the lead in a battery to slowly be electroplated between electrodes over a battery’s life.

While generating a lead tree is an excellent way of removing lead contamination in most circumstances, in this case it would almost definitely require destroying most of the acid before it’s fully effective. In situations like this, the hydrogen ions (due to high concentration) are more easily reduced than the lead ions, so simply replacing the lead with a more reactive metal by a single displacement reaction is near impossible.

here in my country, you can get any sulfuric acid easily by buying "red part" of car/motorbike battery acid afaik, while the "blue part" is the aquadest or H2O sorry for my bad english

Strangely the police caught a young lad in the park near me drinking battery acid, they had to let him go because they didn't know what to charge him with.

17 volts @ 30 amps for 15 minutes.... let rest an hour..... do this 5 times..... anything over 15.5 volts breaks down sulfates, the heavy amps penetrates the heavily sulfated plates and burns out shorts......

What happens if you leave it on longer than 15 mins? Does it cooked the solution/plates?

After taking out the H2S04 from the battery refil the battery with distilled water and recharge the battery....you will get more acid from it.

SHOUTING AT MY PIONE *take off the cover* 😂😂😂😂 you know there is access panel on top of the battery on the other side from where u drilled holes 😂😝
@ScrapScience
@ScrapScience Жыл бұрын
Well yes, but the access holes weren't big enough to allow the solution to pour out of them. I needed to drill a second hole for each cell so that the pressure could equalise as I was pouring the acid out. The access holes on this particular battery are for allowing pressure to escape, and to input water into cells that are running low - they're not designed to pour the acid out.

I have just poured out about 7 batteries like this out of the top caps. Most of the top caps extend down inside the battery quite a long way so you can't get the last third or so of the acid out, which is a bit annoying. I would rather loose a bit of acid than having it dribbling out of drilled holes though.

Pb can probably be removed by activated carbon. Even unactivated carbon should work. Reheat bbq charcoal in closed container with vent to above 500oC to remove any volatile organic contaminants. Cool and use like activated carbon. Should be about 10% as effective as activated carbon.

A few people have asked this so far, and I'm afraid I'll have to give you the same answer as everybody else. At this stage I don't really have the time to correspond with people by email or by any means besides the youtube comments, sorry. Most of my time is taken up with university studies at the moment, but at the end of the academic year I'll (hopefully) have the time to set up an email to associate with my channel. If you can wait until the end of the year, I should be more than happy to talk. Or if what you need can fit in the comments here, I'm always keen to respond.
