·Most printed circuit boards end up in a landfill What You Can Recycle from Printed Circuit Boards During the recovery process you will try to maintain and keep as much of the metal as possible You might like to know what you can keep and what will either get ruined or require disposal Here is a list of all the parts you can recycle from a
·3 Place circuit boards into the solution Soak the boards for six to eight hours 4 Remove the circuit boards from the solution Rinse off the circuit boards making sure that you rinse off all of the gold flakes that have been separated from the board by the stripping solution 5 Filter the rinsing water to recover the loose gold flakes Dry
·A printed circuit board PCB is typically made by attaching a copper sheet to a substrate board sometimes on both sides The manufacturer then creates the circuits by removing copper so that only the required copper traces remain This is called a subtractive method and there are also additive techniques usually for multilayer PCBs
Congratulations you have decided to enter to the amazing world of computer recycling and electronics recycling recovering gold and precious metals from E waste is one of the most interesting and challenging practice in the recycling electronic devices contains inside of them circuit boards in this article we will discuss about the most common circuit
·Can anyone out there tell me if this is a good ballpark figure I am sure there are many variables that can throw this off like the thickness of the gold plate Reply J jimdoc Well known member Joined Mar 12 2007 Messages 4 943 Location Philadelphia The variables are too wide for circuit boards Until you ve refined the type of scrap
·Cleaning circuit boards is crucial in manufacturing assembly and post use to prevent corrosion and performance issues Tools like compressed air brushes towels and advanced machines such as ultrasonic cleaners are used The process involves disassembly overall cleaning applying cleaner erasing using baking soda for corrosion
·Hi punkymunk you raised a good question about the other stuff I have been collecting the header pins off of circuit boards that were not gold plated I m thinking that they are; tin nickel and maybe silver but I d like someone to tell me if there is any silver in the non gold header pins Also; cable end connector pins that are not gold
·Gold is often used as a coating for certain parts of a circuit board due to its electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance Gold is used in connectors edge contacts gold fingers on PCBs ball grid array packages plated through holes micro vias and surface mount components such as capacitors and resistors
Military gold scrap Aviation circuit boards Aviation gold scrap IMPORTANT We do not accept whole computers monitors power supplies or hard drives or other whole components Boards must be free of all batteries cadmium/mercury/beryllium switches and as much excess metal as possible aluminum copper heat sinks etc
·Between materials cost and the volume of acid you ll generate there s quite a bit more base metals per gram of precious metals in a whole circuit board as compared to clean fingers If you re doing it for fun stick to fingers and such and ship your boards off to a real processor/refiner
3 ·Gold Printed Circuit Boards Computer Chips CPU connectors / fingers; Silver Printed Circuit Boards Computer Chips keyboard membranes some capacitors; Platinum Hard Drives Circuit board components; Palladium Hard Drives Circuit board components capacitors
·2 Isolate the gold housing component from the electronic device Separate gold plated steel components like circuit boards using a magnet 3 Submerge the circuit board in a hydrogen peroxide solution Your solution should contain two parts lab grade hydrochloric acid and one part 3% hydrogen peroxide Put the circuit board in a
·At this rate it will take a lot of circuit boards to get wealthy The conversions I used are The idea of scraping the gold off sounds appealing at first but when you run the numbers and need to scrape somewhere between 10 000 and 100 000 fingers to get a 1 inch thickness it gets less appealing
Best Ways To Clean A Corroded Circuit Board There are two ways to clean a corroded circuit board Using a solution mixed with alcohol baking soda and water The other is using a special circuit board cleaning spray Cleaning With Mixed Solution Always remove the device s batteries and power source first
·Recycling 1 metric ton 2 200 lbs of circuit boards yields 700 2100 grams of gold worth around $30 000 90 000 Obviously scrap gold recycling is more feasible at large commercial scales But it demonstrates how even minute concentrations in e waste can produce tremendous value With gold prices around $1 800 per ounce computer
At these prices a skilled recycler extracting gold from electronics can expect to receive over $10 000 worth of gold from just one ton of computer circuit boards Since billions of electronic products worldwide are obsolete unwanted or broken beyond repair every year extracting gold can be a profitable activity for recyclers that know how

·Finally to extract the precious metals from the sponge the protein sponge is heated to a temperature where the gold ions turn into flakes and can be taken off the sponge easily
·Hello members I saw a YouTube video from forum member kadriver using vinegar sea salt and peroxide to remove gold from finger boards The video was so promising I decided to give it a try I did and it works well without the need to use any dangerous acids I have used this process and I have stripped gold from pinless/padded
·Using a proprietary chemical process pioneered by Canadian firm Excir England s The Royal Mint has begun mining old circuit boards from electronic devices for gold and converting what s harvested
3 ·The best parts to use in this experiment are printed circuit boards motherboards central processing units random access memory chips drives and other internal modems Identify areas with gold color on these parts and strip the surrounding plastic You should have more gold colored components than plastic to extract a sizeable amount of gold
