welcome back YouTube this is going to be
00:00:30.610 00:00:30.620 part two of the palladium refining video
00:00:33.280 00:00:33.290 and in this part two I've got the
00:00:35.830 00:00:35.840 solution actor evaporated down to 150 ml
00:00:38.620 00:00:38.630 now which is the concentration I need to
00:00:41.800 00:00:41.810 go ahead and do this next step what I'm
00:00:43.810 00:00:43.820 going to do is make a concentrated
00:00:45.130 00:00:45.140 solution of ammonium chloride and add
00:00:47.710 00:00:47.720 that to the Palladium solution to
00:00:50.620 00:00:50.630 precipitate out any platinum that might
00:00:52.780 00:00:52.790 be in there
00:00:53.560 00:00:53.570 then I'll filter out any platinum salts
00:00:55.930 00:00:55.940 that that precipitates from the ammonium
00:00:58.210 00:00:58.220 chloride and then I'll take that
00:01:00.430 00:01:00.440 solution that's got the Platinum
00:01:02.200 00:01:02.210 filtered out of it and bubble chlorine
00:01:05.410 00:01:05.420 gas to it what I'm gonna do there is
00:01:07.480 00:01:07.490 I've got some swimming pool chlorine
00:01:09.580 00:01:09.590 tablets here it's called coral I so
00:01:12.340 00:01:12.350 sayonara casted tablets about these at
00:01:15.100 00:01:15.110 Walmart or low it's one of them places
00:01:17.770 00:01:17.780 it's Oh swimming pool supplies and I'll
00:01:20.350 00:01:20.360 grind that I'll take a tablet and grind
00:01:21.910 00:01:21.920 it up in here mortar pestle then I
00:01:24.280 00:01:24.290 happen to this flask over here is my gas
00:01:26.230 00:01:26.240 generator I've got a an edition father
00:01:30.100 00:01:30.110 that's vented to prevent it from
00:01:31.889 00:01:31.899 pressurizing in there and I'll put some
00:01:34.690 00:01:34.700 hydrochloric acid in there and then
00:01:36.819 00:01:36.829 slowly drip the hydrochloric acid on the
00:01:40.410 00:01:40.420 ground up chlorine tablets I've got a
00:01:43.719 00:01:43.729 little tube here that Allah I put a
00:01:45.850 00:01:45.860 yacht a tip on it
00:01:47.770 00:01:47.780 pipette a glass pipettes and sort it
00:01:49.870 00:01:49.880 into this tube and I let's put that on
00:01:52.450 00:01:52.460 the arm of the flask over here and then
00:01:54.850 00:01:54.860 I'll bubble the chlorine gas that's
00:01:56.319 00:01:56.329 produced in the gas generator through
00:01:58.599 00:01:58.609 the Palladium solution and form a
00:02:01.270 00:02:01.280 palladium salt that's so Ebola on the
00:02:02.859 00:02:02.869 loop and ammonia and then once I get
00:02:05.319 00:02:05.329 that I'll filter that out put it in a
00:02:07.569 00:02:07.579 separate Baker and then add just regular
00:02:10.180 00:02:10.190 10% household ammonia buy at the grocery
00:02:12.340 00:02:12.350 store and I string a hot plate and stir
00:02:15.670 00:02:15.680 that up and dissolve the Palladium salt
00:02:17.800 00:02:17.810 in the ammonia once we get that done I'm
00:02:21.340 00:02:21.350 gonna filter that solution to get out
00:02:24.430 00:02:24.440 any junk any solids and then I'll take
00:02:26.920 00:02:26.930 that filtrate the dissolved plating
00:02:29.710 00:02:29.720 that's dissolved in ammonia and now I
00:02:32.110 00:02:32.120 add hydrochloric acid to reify it and
00:02:34.780 00:02:34.790 what we'll get is a bright yellow canary
00:02:37.930 00:02:37.940 yellow precipitate
00:02:40.009 00:02:40.019 pure palladium salt then I'll take that
00:02:43.099 00:02:43.109 lady in salt and I'll put it in a fused
00:02:45.020 00:02:45.030 quartz dish and we'll burn it over a hot
00:02:49.250 00:02:49.260 plate and form some pure palladium metal
00:02:53.199 00:02:53.209 sponge and we're going to do all that
00:02:55.670 00:02:55.680 for you right now
00:02:57.849 00:02:57.859 the solution has been on the heat there
00:03:01.119 00:03:01.129 all night long
00:03:02.750 00:03:02.760 it was way up here about but we have to
00:03:06.259 00:03:06.269 pick the m/l I've got it down to round
00:03:11.589 00:03:11.599 25 ml which is a little bit low I might
00:03:13.869 00:03:13.879 have to rehydrate a little - orgasm I
00:03:16.360 00:03:16.370 don't want the solution
00:03:19.339 00:03:19.349 because if it is I go to add the morning
00:03:22.309 00:03:22.319 law right it'll form a precipitate that
00:03:26.739 00:03:26.749 I don't want it's not soluble in ammonia
00:03:31.580 00:03:31.590 so I'm gonna fill this back up to 150 ml
00:03:35.420 00:03:35.430 of hydrochloric acid so I've got the
00:03:38.780 00:03:38.790 seven point five grams of the lady of
00:03:41.629 00:03:41.639 dissolve in the ml
00:03:45.010 00:03:45.020 20ml program
00:03:49.110 00:03:49.120 okay I just took this off the heat i
00:03:51.410 00:03:51.420 overshot with the evaporation a little
00:03:54.360 00:03:54.370 bit Terrence I need to be at a hunt 50
00:03:56.280 00:03:56.290 ml per for this whole experiment here so
00:04:00.540 00:04:00.550 I'm gonna rehydrate it with just a
00:04:02.040 00:04:02.050 little bit of hydrochloric acid here and
00:04:04.229 00:04:04.239 get it up to just under 150 ml I think
00:04:08.820 00:04:08.830 that'll get me to where I need to be all
00:04:11.839 00:04:11.849 right that's about just under 150 ml now
00:04:16.560 00:04:16.570 solution with 7.5 grams of lady M
00:04:20.520 00:04:20.530 dissolved in it
00:04:23.370 00:04:23.380 now what I'm gonna do is make up a
00:04:26.530 00:04:26.540 solution a concentrated solution of
00:04:30.340 00:04:30.350 ammonium chloride here we put about 50
00:04:34.150 00:04:34.160 ml of distilled water in a beaker add a
00:04:38.110 00:04:38.120 spoonful of ammonium chloride
00:04:50.530 00:04:50.540 a bit more maybe
00:04:55.860 00:04:55.870 these go ahead stir that up
00:05:03.710 00:05:03.720 to exalt we can ice saturated solution
00:05:06.980 00:05:06.990 here
00:05:08.880 00:05:08.890 I've got the ammonium chloride solution
00:05:11.040 00:05:11.050 here it's saturated I've got a little
00:05:12.750 00:05:12.760 bit left on the bottom that won't
00:05:14.100 00:05:14.110 dissolve and so what I'm gonna do now is
00:05:17.010 00:05:17.020 I'm gonna add this saturated solution of
00:05:19.590 00:05:19.600 ammonium chloride to my palladium
00:05:22.140 00:05:22.150 solution here to precipitate out any
00:05:25.400 00:05:25.410 platinum that might be in solution with
00:05:29.760 00:05:29.770 the palladium now I'm going to tell you
00:05:32.070 00:05:32.080 I don't expect to precipitate out any
00:05:35.130 00:05:35.140 platinum
00:05:43.230 00:05:43.240 should just be palladium in here that's
00:05:47.310 00:05:47.320 important to realize that the
00:05:51.960 00:05:51.970 lady 'm
00:05:54.410 00:05:54.420 or the ammonium chloride is required in
00:05:57.020 00:05:57.030 this palladium solution whether or not I
00:05:59.540 00:05:59.550 suspect I have platinum or not
00:06:01.720 00:06:01.730 [Music]
00:06:03.820 00:06:03.830 the ammonium chloride addition if I my
00:06:06.520 00:06:06.530 member marrik certain my memory serves
00:06:08.080 00:06:08.090 me correctly
00:06:08.920 00:06:08.930 now the morning' chloride has to be
00:06:11.170 00:06:11.180 added for this next step either way I am
00:06:14.740 00:06:14.750 getting some precipitate form in there
00:06:18.610 00:06:18.620 does not look like
00:06:22.910 00:06:22.920 what I'm after them
00:06:28.299 00:06:28.309 I've only added a few ml at the ammonium
00:06:31.239 00:06:31.249 chloride and I've got some kind of
00:06:32.769 00:06:32.779 precipitate forming on the bottom there
00:06:34.839 00:06:34.849 not quite sure what that is I do not
00:06:37.569 00:06:37.579 think it's platinum it's probably some
00:06:40.209 00:06:40.219 form of palladium I'm gonna add a little
00:06:42.459 00:06:42.469 bit more of this warning of chloride
00:07:05.180 00:07:05.190 added about 6-8 ml of that concentrated
00:07:08.870 00:07:08.880 ammonium chloride solution and you can
00:07:12.380 00:07:12.390 see down there I've got a little bit of
00:07:15.490 00:07:15.500 precipitate that's formed and a lot
00:07:21.170 00:07:21.180 kind of looks like it's going away
00:07:25.300 00:07:25.310 it's a yellowish color orangish color I
00:07:30.450 00:07:30.460 don't know if that's platinum or what
00:07:34.030 00:07:34.040 that is
00:07:36.490 00:07:36.500 but it's real fine-grained it's not the
00:07:38.800 00:07:38.810 thick pd-2 salt that I want to try to
00:07:43.630 00:07:43.640 avoid before I show this next segment of
00:07:46.930 00:07:46.940 video I'm going to go back in time three
00:07:49.180 00:07:49.190 or four years ago I tried this
00:07:50.410 00:07:50.420 experiment and I over concentrated the
00:07:53.290 00:07:53.300 Palladium solution I had about five ml
00:07:55.660 00:07:55.670 per gram concentration and what I added
00:07:58.570 00:07:58.580 that ammonium chloride solution I got
00:08:01.720 00:08:01.730 this thick crystalline light precipitate
00:08:03.880 00:08:03.890 called PD - which is undesirable in this
00:08:08.890 00:08:08.900 reaction okay this is some instructions
00:08:14.710 00:08:14.720 that I downloaded off of by the gold
00:08:17.680 00:08:17.690 refining forum comm from a previous
00:08:21.060 00:08:21.070 previous experiment that I did was su
00:08:23.560 00:08:23.570 monthly it says what you have to
00:08:27.190 00:08:27.200 critically evaluate is concentrating it
00:08:30.670 00:08:30.680 in the solution to around 20 ml per gram
00:08:34.860 00:08:34.870 let it cool and see if there's any
00:08:38.080 00:08:38.090 orange or yellow fine grain PT salt
00:08:41.140 00:08:41.150 appearing
00:08:42.300 00:08:42.310 within the thick and dense pv2 socks
00:08:46.079 00:08:46.089 well I don't see any thick dense PD to
00:08:48.840 00:08:48.850 salt in here so I don't think I've got
00:08:50.670 00:08:50.680 that so I think what this is is some
00:08:52.860 00:08:52.870 fine grained fine grained platinum in
00:08:56.189 00:08:56.199 the bottom of that beaker
00:08:58.850 00:08:58.860 anyway it goes on to say if yes you're
00:09:01.490 00:09:01.500 good to go for filtration of the Petey
00:09:03.830 00:09:03.840 salt if orange-yellow Petey salt is
00:09:07.520 00:09:07.530 appearing with the usual suspect Vic PD
00:09:10.850 00:09:10.860 - which I don't think I have then you
00:09:15.020 00:09:15.030 would have to dilute it with a bit of
00:09:16.960 00:09:16.970 50/50 there's still water and
00:09:19.630 00:09:19.640 hydrochloric acid and give it some heat
00:09:22.910 00:09:22.920 until the thick PD - salt disappears
00:09:25.820 00:09:25.830 then go ahead and filter out the blood I
00:09:28.700 00:09:28.710 don't have any thick PD - salt in here
00:09:32.780 00:09:32.790 so I'm thinking as to just platinum in
00:09:35.150 00:09:35.160 there go ahead and I set up a filter and
00:09:37.460 00:09:37.470 filter that out there and proceed with
00:09:39.500 00:09:39.510 the experiment
00:09:41.260 00:09:41.270 before I go any further I'd like to
00:09:44.340 00:09:44.350 point out where these instructions came
00:09:46.810 00:09:46.820 from there's a user on the gold refining
00:09:49.930 00:09:49.940 forum com
00:09:51.430 00:09:51.440 his name was Ray obvious and he was very
00:09:54.340 00:09:54.350 helpful to me back when I was doing
00:09:57.310 00:09:57.320 these platinum group metals trying to
00:10:01.389 00:10:01.399 refine platinum and palladium he reached
00:10:04.630 00:10:04.640 out and helped me basically took me down
00:10:08.650 00:10:08.660 hand and helped me step by step guiding
00:10:11.980 00:10:11.990 me and showing me exactly what needed to
00:10:13.750 00:10:13.760 be done to be successful with these
00:10:15.550 00:10:15.560 platinum group mental experiment so
00:10:18.010 00:10:18.020 really yes thank you very much I just
00:10:20.829 00:10:20.839 want to extend that thank you to you if
00:10:22.720 00:10:22.730 you're watching the video thank you very
00:10:24.940 00:10:24.950 much I've set up a little filter here go
00:10:29.199 00:10:29.209 ahead and filter the palladium solution
00:10:31.290 00:10:31.300 and get that yellow precipitate that's
00:10:35.440 00:10:35.450 on the bottom of the beaker into the
00:10:37.540 00:10:37.550 filter so we can proceed to the next
00:10:39.430 00:10:39.440 step
00:10:50.110 00:10:50.120 you
00:10:58.540 00:10:58.550 00:11:03.690 00:11:03.700 about halfway through with the
00:11:05.910 00:11:05.920 filtration operation here I just want to
00:11:09.090 00:11:09.100 show you what this some precipitate
00:11:10.800 00:11:10.810 looks like down here it's absolutely
00:11:12.600 00:11:12.610 fine grained yellow precipitate not with
00:11:16.740 00:11:16.750 a
00:11:17.830 00:11:17.840 thinking that's gonna be platinum
00:11:20.650 00:11:20.660 I never were fond and platinum were been
00:11:25.220 00:11:25.230 palladium assault that were derived from
00:11:29.260 00:11:29.270 time up a boxing
00:11:32.350 00:11:32.360 pure palladium with no we're getting
00:11:35.470 00:11:35.480 down to the precipitate now and I'm
00:11:40.179 00:11:40.189 gonna conclude that that's probably some
00:11:42.519 00:11:42.529 platinum that precipitated out of that
00:11:45.519 00:11:45.529 palladium solution what's really baffled
00:11:47.710 00:11:47.720 and surprised me if that is ammonium
00:11:50.949 00:11:50.959 hexa chloroplast then I can't use
00:11:54.129 00:11:54.139 distilled water to rinse it out of the
00:11:55.960 00:11:55.970 beaker because ammonium hexa-core
00:11:59.229 00:11:59.239 flattened eight is soluble in water it
00:12:01.689 00:12:01.699 will go back into solution and
00:12:03.689 00:12:03.699 contaminate the lidium what I can use
00:12:08.199 00:12:08.209 I've got some hydrochloric acid here the
00:12:11.590 00:12:11.600 ammonium hexa-core platon a is not
00:12:13.840 00:12:13.850 soluble and hydrochloric acid so I'm
00:12:17.319 00:12:17.329 going to use some hydrochloric acid to
00:12:19.090 00:12:19.100 rinse it out of the beaker
00:12:22.750 00:12:22.760 00:12:28.770 00:12:28.780 here I use a very minimal amount of
00:12:32.530 00:12:32.540 hydrochloric acid to rinse that ESIC
00:12:35.560 00:12:35.570 Laura platen 8 down into the filter the
00:12:38.950 00:12:38.960 reason I do this I don't want to use too
00:12:40.390 00:12:40.400 much that hydrochloric acid to over
00:12:43.030 00:12:43.040 dilute my palladium solution down in the
00:12:47.950 00:12:47.960 beaker there
00:12:59.650 00:12:59.660 00:13:11.110 00:13:11.120 here's what I believe
00:13:13.330 00:13:13.340 my platinum salt the filter down here's
00:13:18.370 00:13:18.380 my palladium solution I would love to be
00:13:21.760 00:13:21.770 able to rinse this platinum salt out
00:13:23.740 00:13:23.750 three of millennium
00:13:27.010 00:13:27.020 but what I'm gonna do to a boy over
00:13:31.920 00:13:31.930 diluting my solution in here I'm going
00:13:34.660 00:13:34.670 to go ahead and rinse this latinum
00:13:37.450 00:13:37.460 solution with some hydrochloric acid
00:13:39.360 00:13:39.370 into another container here
00:13:48.660 00:13:48.670 metals are much different than gold and
00:13:51.460 00:13:51.470 silver there's so many more critical
00:13:54.330 00:13:54.340 variables when you're refining platinum
00:13:56.950 00:13:56.960 metals
00:13:59.100 00:13:59.110 variables such as pH levels
00:14:02.660 00:14:02.670 concentration levels liquid levels
00:14:05.340 00:14:05.350 temperature there's so many different
00:14:08.010 00:14:08.020 factors that affect the
00:14:10.069 00:14:10.079 outcome a bearish finding of the
00:14:11.989 00:14:11.999 platinum group metals just don't apply
00:14:14.540 00:14:14.550 to the gold and silver refining
00:14:17.300 00:14:17.310 two different worlds
00:14:19.490 00:14:19.500 be the hydrochloric acid rinses a nearly
00:14:22.680 00:14:22.690 complete here I'd be tempted to add this
00:14:25.920 00:14:25.930 solution which is going to be mostly
00:14:27.449 00:14:27.459 palladium back to my main solution but
00:14:31.259 00:14:31.269 I'm not going to do that because for one
00:14:33.000 00:14:33.010 thing that platinum is going to try to
00:14:35.160 00:14:35.170 want to go back into solution with that
00:14:37.530 00:14:37.540 hydrochloric acid the longer it stays on
00:14:39.720 00:14:39.730 there and then probably intermixed with
00:14:42.360 00:14:42.370 the Palladium that's in here so what I'm
00:14:44.009 00:14:44.019 going to do is I'm just going to add
00:14:45.150 00:14:45.160 this to my stock pot and I add this to
00:14:48.449 00:14:48.459 my stuff
00:14:53.290 00:14:53.300 I'm gonna scoop a little bit of this
00:14:56.130 00:14:56.140 precipitate out with the pipette bleep I
00:14:59.530 00:14:59.540 bet it's got a little bit of water in it
00:15:01.470 00:15:01.480 put it down in this spot plate
00:15:04.950 00:15:04.960 turn around
00:15:06.850 00:15:06.860 you should go back in the solution if
00:15:08.560 00:15:08.570 it's
00:15:09.210 00:15:09.220 Morty mx4 flatmate
00:15:13.170 00:15:13.180 now without news I'll take a little
00:15:14.940 00:15:14.950 piece of filter paper here dip it in a
00:15:19.340 00:15:19.350 solution
00:15:21.769 00:15:21.779 Adson stannous chloride to it and we'll
00:15:24.499 00:15:24.509 see what happens here
00:15:29.500 00:15:29.510 and as you can see I get a Horan stain
00:15:34.200 00:15:34.210 which tells me
00:15:36.269 00:15:36.279 this suit this material in here is
00:15:38.790 00:15:38.800 ammonium and hexa-core flatmate based on
00:15:42.119 00:15:42.129 this test so it isn't it back to
00:15:44.069 00:15:44.079 platinum that's a relief man I didn't
00:15:46.920 00:15:46.930 know what was going with this is the
00:15:48.329 00:15:48.339 first time but I've gotten this far with
00:15:50.519 00:15:50.529 this refining so we've got some platinum
00:15:52.769 00:15:52.779 in the filter and then I got my Lady of
00:15:56.939 00:15:56.949 solution down here in this little beaker
00:15:58.710 00:15:58.720 that's got a mode iam chloride mixed in
00:16:02.699 00:16:02.709 with it we're ready to go to the next
00:16:04.889 00:16:04.899 phase of the process which is the bubble
00:16:08.759 00:16:08.769 supporting gas through this lady and
00:16:12.600 00:16:12.610 solution but gets set up to do that
00:16:14.759 00:16:14.769 right now
00:16:17.249 00:16:17.259 okay it's the following day and I'm
00:16:19.599 00:16:19.609 gonna go ahead and get set up to prepare
00:16:22.689 00:16:22.699 the gas generator to bubble chlorine gas
00:16:25.089 00:16:25.099 through our lady amount solution here
00:16:37.370 00:16:37.380 tablets that I'll be using to make the
00:16:39.870 00:16:39.880 chlorine gas it's called tri chloro
00:16:43.550 00:16:43.560 cyanuric acid aqua chem swimming pool
00:16:49.199 00:16:49.209 chlorine tablets
00:17:27.750 00:17:27.760 now I'll add some of that try chloro I
00:17:31.600 00:17:31.610 so cyanuric acid to my gas generating
00:17:35.049 00:17:35.059 blast here
00:17:48.820 00:17:48.830 I've got my crushed-up try chloro
00:17:52.539 00:17:52.549 isocyanate gas addition flask here now
00:17:56.930 00:17:56.940 what I'm going to do them I set this off
00:17:58.220 00:17:58.230 to the side and I'm going to assemble
00:18:00.740 00:18:00.750 the gas generator now
00:18:06.540 00:18:06.550 here I add some water to the crushed up
00:18:10.150 00:18:10.160 chlorine tablet to form a slurry in the
00:18:12.400 00:18:12.410 gas generator bottle there
00:18:14.710 00:18:14.720 00:18:30.360 00:18:30.370 now what I'll do is charge the addition
00:18:34.029 00:18:34.039 funnel with about 200 ml of hydrochloric
00:18:37.360 00:18:37.370 acid here
00:19:27.960 00:19:27.970 before I get started I'm going to go
00:19:29.490 00:19:29.500 ahead and transfer my palladium solution
00:19:31.920 00:19:31.930 that has ammonium chloride in it and the
00:19:36.240 00:19:36.250 platinum are moved into this 600 ml
00:19:39.720 00:19:39.730 beaker
00:19:46.239 00:19:46.249 well in this shot I set up to turn that
00:19:49.249 00:19:49.259 gas generator on and then reached up and
00:19:51.499 00:19:51.509 turn the camera off instead on so I've
00:19:54.560 00:19:54.570 missed that part of the video
00:19:59.130 00:19:59.140 but you know what I've forgotten to turn
00:20:01.110 00:20:01.120 the camera on
00:20:02.760 00:20:02.770 what I'm doing here as I started the
00:20:04.919 00:20:04.929 chlorine gas generator tripping
00:20:07.980 00:20:07.990 hydrochloric acid from the ignition
00:20:10.440 00:20:10.450 funnel now into the slurry that I made
00:20:13.799 00:20:13.809 with water and chopped up chlorine
00:20:16.770 00:20:16.780 tablet it's going through this tube here
00:20:20.910 00:20:20.920 and you can see the precipitate forming
00:20:23.460 00:20:23.470 now in my lady of solution here
00:20:28.210 00:20:28.220 and we'll just let this bubble for a
00:20:29.560 00:20:29.570 while
00:21:31.369 00:21:31.379 in this shot I was on the phone talking
00:21:34.320 00:21:34.330 with one of the most knowledgeable
00:21:36.049 00:21:36.059 persons on the planet with respect to
00:21:39.899 00:21:39.909 platinum group metals refighting he said
00:21:42.779 00:21:42.789 they had ice to it so I put some ice on
00:21:44.789 00:21:44.799 there and keep it cold
00:21:50.000 00:21:50.010 all right I've been bubbling the
00:21:51.379 00:21:51.389 chlorine through this for about 10 or 15
00:21:55.129 00:21:55.139 minutes now
00:21:58.130 00:21:58.140 and that's some ice down here to make
00:22:00.169 00:22:00.179 sure to keep everything cool
00:22:03.030 00:22:03.040 I guess the cool this solution is the
00:22:05.850 00:22:05.860 better this reaction happens my gas
00:22:09.840 00:22:09.850 generators still cranking out spray gas
00:22:18.419 00:22:18.429 all right I'm going to shut the gas off
00:22:20.609 00:22:20.619 here or the flow of hydrochloric acid
00:22:24.950 00:22:24.960 I've got the Palladium solution now in
00:22:27.869 00:22:27.879 here I put some ice around and make sure
00:22:29.519 00:22:29.529 it stayed cool it's been bubbling gas
00:22:33.180 00:22:33.190 through it now for about 15 20 minutes
00:22:43.580 00:22:43.590 what I'm going to do now is I've got a
00:22:45.890 00:22:45.900 filter setup here
00:22:48.850 00:22:48.860 I'm gonna moisten it with a little
00:22:49.990 00:22:50.000 hydrochloric acid
00:22:58.250 00:22:58.260 which stays down in the
00:23:01.260 00:23:01.270 filter
00:23:04.170 00:23:04.180 and then what I'm going to do is I'm
00:23:05.430 00:23:05.440 going to pull this up and I'm gonna
00:23:08.250 00:23:08.260 filter out our precipitate
00:23:14.500 00:23:14.510 so that we can dissolve it in some
00:23:16.539 00:23:16.549 ammonia
00:23:24.930 00:23:24.940 notice how dark the filtrate is that's
00:23:28.120 00:23:28.130 going down into that flask I'm fairly
00:23:31.180 00:23:31.190 certain that that filtrate should be a
00:23:33.040 00:23:33.050 lot lighter than that it tells me that
00:23:34.960 00:23:34.970 there's still some palladium in that
00:23:37.270 00:23:37.280 00:23:43.820 00:23:43.830 all right I've got most of the
00:23:45.500 00:23:45.510 precipitate out of the beaker now damn
00:23:47.690 00:23:47.700 into the funnel there what I'm gonna do
00:23:52.009 00:23:52.019 is I'm gonna put this beaker
00:23:54.400 00:23:54.410 00:23:55.520 00:23:55.530 back in the ice bath over here
00:23:59.030 00:23:59.040 add this solution that filtered out
00:24:01.740 00:24:01.750 00:24:02.950 00:24:02.960 back into the beaker and try to bubble
00:24:06.190 00:24:06.200 some more gas if we can get some more
00:24:07.710 00:24:07.720 precipitate to form
00:24:11.630 00:24:11.640 please realize that this is the first
00:24:14.150 00:24:14.160 time that I've ever done this
00:24:18.330 00:24:18.340 that I've gotten this far with it
00:24:21.530 00:24:21.540 made this print red precipitate that's
00:24:24.400 00:24:24.410 gonna be dissolved in ammonia so you're
00:24:27.770 00:24:27.780 watching me learn for the very first
00:24:30.080 00:24:30.090 time everything that I'm doing here
00:24:32.690 00:24:32.700 is my very first attempt at this got a
00:24:36.050 00:24:36.060 nerve-wracking
00:24:37.640 00:24:37.650 I already missed one good segment forgot
00:24:40.220 00:24:40.230 to turn the camera on sir
00:24:42.660 00:24:42.670 anyway here we go with that process
00:24:52.800 00:24:52.810 I've got some 15% ammonium chloride
00:24:56.020 00:24:56.030 solution here it's made by dissolving
00:24:59.440 00:24:59.450 off 15 grams of ammonium chloride
00:25:04.990 00:25:05.000 in 100ml of water and we use that to
00:25:07.930 00:25:07.940 rinse the
00:25:09.840 00:25:09.850 mr. salt
00:25:12.780 00:25:12.790 the reason I'm using 15% ammonium
00:25:16.270 00:25:16.280 chloride water to rinse this salt out is
00:25:18.550 00:25:18.560 because I'm concerned that if I just use
00:25:20.290 00:25:20.300 regular water or hydrochloric acid that
00:25:24.400 00:25:24.410 that salt want to try to go back into
00:25:26.710 00:25:26.720 solution so that's why I'm using the
00:25:28.450 00:25:28.460 ammonium chloride water to this rinse
00:25:37.590 00:25:37.600 we're gonna transfer the funnel to this
00:25:39.480 00:25:39.490 smaller flask here
00:25:41.600 00:25:41.610 00:25:43.620 00:25:43.630 and then I'm gonna pour this solution
00:25:47.820 00:25:47.830 back into my beaker over here
00:25:50.330 00:25:50.340 00:25:55.480 00:25:55.490 here I'm using common sense to adopt
00:25:58.180 00:25:58.190 that that solution is just too dark and
00:26:01.090 00:26:01.100 still contains some palladium so I want
00:26:03.160 00:26:03.170 to try to ride further extracted with
00:26:05.590 00:26:05.600 small quarry
00:26:07.510 00:26:07.520 and now what I'll do is put the start
00:26:11.020 00:26:11.030 the flow of acid back down into my gas
00:26:12.940 00:26:12.950 generator here just drip some in a
00:26:16.090 00:26:16.100 little at a time
00:26:20.830 00:26:20.840 and put put the two back into the
00:26:24.100 00:26:24.110 solution so you might get some more that
00:26:26.970 00:26:26.980 some more that palladium salt to
00:26:29.259 00:26:29.269 precipitate out
00:26:30.010 00:26:30.020 00:26:43.680 00:26:43.690 hydrochloric acid level of my gas
00:26:45.780 00:26:45.790 generators getting lower there so I'm
00:26:47.520 00:26:47.530 gonna add about another hundred ml of
00:26:49.910 00:26:49.920 hydrochloric acid to it
00:27:03.600 00:27:03.610 00:27:35.000 00:27:35.010 I didn't see anyone precipitate forming
00:27:37.760 00:27:37.770 so I concluded that I didn't add enough
00:27:39.620 00:27:39.630 chloride earlier when I precipitated the
00:27:42.260 00:27:42.270 00:27:45.710 00:27:45.720 doesn't see be any more salt for
00:27:49.440 00:27:49.450 spectating out of that solution so I'm
00:27:51.030 00:27:51.040 gonna add some concentrated mourning of
00:27:53.820 00:27:53.830 chloride here I don't know if this is
00:27:54.930 00:27:54.940 the right thing to do or not but I'm
00:27:56.190 00:27:56.200 gonna go ahead and add some more in
00:27:57.390 00:27:57.400 there and see what happens
00:27:58.510 00:27:58.520 00:28:01.320 00:28:01.330 something's coming out some just
00:28:03.390 00:28:03.400 precipitate in there
00:28:17.450 00:28:17.460 here is our palladium salt I'm gonna put
00:28:20.780 00:28:20.790 in ammonia now and this all
00:28:25.620 00:28:25.630 it's been rinsed with a little bit of
00:28:26.970 00:28:26.980 15% ammonia
00:28:29.930 00:28:29.940 I've got this solution over here some
00:28:33.680 00:28:33.690 kind of precipitates formed I don't know
00:28:35.510 00:28:35.520 what that is I don't know if I did that
00:28:36.950 00:28:36.960 right or not but I put more ammonium
00:28:38.810 00:28:38.820 chloride in there and pull that gas
00:28:40.940 00:28:40.950 generating tube out just send it off to
00:28:42.950 00:28:42.960 the side
00:28:44.510 00:28:44.520 and then we'll go ahead and know what
00:28:46.730 00:28:46.740 I'm going to do at this I try to filter
00:28:48.200 00:28:48.210 that I guess maybe keep it separate from
00:28:50.960 00:28:50.970 this other stuff this is my good salt I
00:28:54.530 00:28:54.540 know this is good to go
00:28:55.760 00:28:55.770 this stuff here I don't know what it is
00:28:57.680 00:28:57.690 what I'll do is uh filter it out
00:28:59.780 00:28:59.790 separately later on and try to dissolve
00:29:02.390 00:29:02.400 that by itself it's ammonia
00:29:04.620 00:29:04.630 see how that works
00:29:06.850 00:29:06.860 for now we're gonna get set up to
00:29:08.320 00:29:08.330 dissolve this plenty of salt ammonia
00:29:15.840 00:29:15.850 okay now I'm gonna transfer this filter
00:29:19.560 00:29:19.570 here that's got the lady and salt into
00:29:24.060 00:29:24.070 my beaker here
00:29:25.670 00:29:25.680 00:29:27.350 00:29:27.360 like make this happen when I create the
00:29:29.630 00:29:29.640 problem
00:29:46.260 00:29:46.270 all right there we go
00:29:51.260 00:29:51.270 I'm gonna drop a stir bar in here
00:29:54.250 00:29:54.260 covered up what we're gonna do now is
00:29:57.680 00:29:57.690 take walk outside by the way I just like
00:30:01.310 00:30:01.320 to point out any of this stuff that's
00:30:02.930 00:30:02.940 got ammonium right in it I said I was
00:30:05.840 00:30:05.850 gonna put it in my stockpot
00:30:07.890 00:30:07.900 but I'm not it's all gonna go into a
00:30:09.810 00:30:09.820 different container because I put it my
00:30:12.030 00:30:12.040 stock then I get a bunch of ammonia
00:30:14.840 00:30:14.850 in there and that's something I want to
00:30:17.029 00:30:17.039 try to avoid so now we're going to move
00:30:19.490 00:30:19.500 outside to do this dissolving with the
00:30:25.820 00:30:25.830 00:30:26.720 00:30:26.730 I hate among it's very corrosive it's
00:30:30.379 00:30:30.389 ruined some of my equipment in the past
00:30:40.840 00:30:40.850 I can apply any heat I'm gonna use a
00:30:44.990 00:30:45.000 stir bar I've got some 10% old grocery
00:30:52.159 00:30:52.169 store ammonia now the reason I moved out
00:30:55.610 00:30:55.620 here is because this ammonia is so
00:30:57.680 00:30:57.690 corrosive I'm scared of what it'll do to
00:30:59.810 00:30:59.820 my motor in my fume hood here we go I'm
00:31:02.720 00:31:02.730 gonna add add some 10% ammonia to our
00:31:06.070 00:31:06.080 lady I'm salt here see if we can get
00:31:08.869 00:31:08.879 this stuff to dissolve I don't know how
00:31:14.899 00:31:14.909 much this is gonna take my first time
00:31:19.129 00:31:19.139 doing this turn the stir bar on
00:31:35.179 00:31:35.189 only only been about a minute or so
00:31:37.619 00:31:37.629 since I added that last dosage of
00:31:39.389 00:31:39.399 ammonia I may add a little bit more and
00:31:42.719 00:31:42.729 I'm just gonna let this stuff stir out
00:31:44.579 00:31:44.589 00:31:53.350 00:31:53.360 okay got it up to about the what 300 ml
00:31:57.350 00:31:57.360 level there or just under 300 ml just
00:32:04.789 00:32:04.799 let this stir and see if I can get that
00:32:06.200 00:32:06.210 stuff to go into solution with that
00:32:07.520 00:32:07.530 00:32:09.520 00:32:09.530 alrighty while I'm waiting for the
00:32:11.720 00:32:11.730 ammonia to dissolve that other stuff I
00:32:15.650 00:32:15.660 got out there I got this stuff it's got
00:32:17.750 00:32:17.760 a little bit more precipitate in it so
00:32:20.210 00:32:20.220 I'm gonna try to filter this out and see
00:32:21.980 00:32:21.990 what we can do with this maybe this will
00:32:23.600 00:32:23.610 increase my yield I don't know what this
00:32:25.250 00:32:25.260 is gonna be this is kind of like an
00:32:27.409 00:32:27.419 experiment here
00:32:28.860 00:32:28.870 00:32:34.530 00:32:34.540 almost got all this solution this
00:32:39.390 00:32:39.400 precipitate filtered out here I don't
00:32:42.210 00:32:42.220 know what this is gonna be this is the
00:32:44.640 00:32:44.650 stuff that I put back on the bubbler and
00:32:46.940 00:32:46.950 added some more ammonium chloride I the
00:32:49.740 00:32:49.750 curiosity got to me so I figured I'd go
00:32:51.720 00:32:51.730 ahead and filter this out and try to
00:32:53.010 00:32:53.020 dissolve it in ammonia as well
00:32:55.710 00:32:55.720 and that's what we're gonna do here
00:33:01.700 00:33:01.710 we use some of the ammonium chloride
00:33:03.320 00:33:03.330 solution to rinse this out
00:33:05.290 00:33:05.300 00:33:14.259 00:33:14.269 00:33:22.760 00:33:22.770 00:33:27.310 00:33:27.320 all right I got all the
00:33:29.609 00:33:29.619 filtered off of that precipitate go
00:33:33.460 00:33:33.470 ahead transfer data to this other beaker
00:33:35.590 00:33:35.600 here it's part number two
00:33:37.930 00:33:37.940 so if I can get that out of there
00:33:41.090 00:33:41.100 the speaker
00:34:00.100 00:34:00.110 there we go Annette and judging by this
00:34:04.180 00:34:04.190 color of this solution down here I think
00:34:06.100 00:34:06.110 I might have got some more to palladium
00:34:07.450 00:34:07.460 out
00:34:09.220 00:34:09.230 in here and what we're gonna do now is
00:34:11.440 00:34:11.450 take this out we try to dissolve this
00:34:14.730 00:34:14.740 00:34:17.180 00:34:17.190 alright let's take this out to the stir
00:34:20.210 00:34:20.220 stir out there well while we pass it up
00:34:24.390 00:34:24.400 I might as well show you my silver cell
00:34:26.010 00:34:26.020 here give you a peek inside they're
00:34:28.159 00:34:28.169 stinging runs 24/7 there's some pure
00:34:32.370 00:34:32.380 silver crystal growing in there this is
00:34:36.090 00:34:36.100 the in pure silver shot it gets
00:34:37.800 00:34:37.810 dissolved
00:34:41.700 00:34:41.710 here's my power supply that's it on
00:34:45.720 00:34:45.730 three point 5 volts 0.9 amps alright
00:34:50.610 00:34:50.620 back to the Palladium let's take this
00:34:52.200 00:34:52.210 outside and check on our other batch
00:34:58.080 00:34:58.090 that we already have dissolving in
00:35:00.210 00:35:00.220 ammonia and looky there looky there
00:35:06.800 00:35:06.810 it's a blue aqua green color I'm going
00:35:11.400 00:35:11.410 to take that off of the stirrer well
00:35:16.710 00:35:16.720 first let me let me stop mister mister
00:35:21.390 00:35:21.400 bar there I'm gonna try to get it out
00:35:24.240 00:35:24.250 with a magnet here get that out use that
00:35:35.580 00:35:35.590 in the other batch here put this up on
00:35:45.420 00:35:45.430 the stirrer
00:35:48.280 00:35:48.290 stur pad there I'm gonna add some
00:35:53.360 00:35:53.370 ammonia just like we did with the last
00:35:55.670 00:35:55.680 batch see if we can get this to go into
00:35:59.600 00:35:59.610 solution about 150 ml or so turn the
00:36:14.570 00:36:14.580 stir bar on and let her rip the solution
00:36:28.640 00:36:28.650 there in the ammonia I'm gonna take this
00:36:31.490 00:36:31.500 back in the filter that junk out of
00:36:33.500 00:36:33.510 there and then try to precipitate the
00:36:37.630 00:36:37.640 yellow Palladium salt out of this
00:36:45.300 00:36:45.310 all right next step here is to take our
00:36:47.730 00:36:47.740 palladium solution that we've got
00:36:49.980 00:36:49.990 dissolved in ammonia to filter all the
00:36:52.980 00:36:52.990 junk out of it here
00:36:57.710 00:36:57.720 00:37:06.190 00:37:06.200 00:37:14.990 00:37:15.000 all right this is just 10 minutes later
00:37:17.549 00:37:17.559 and this stuff is pretty much all going
00:37:20.339 00:37:20.349 into solution here I'm gonna go ahead
00:37:23.309 00:37:23.319 and take this in and get ready to filter
00:37:25.049 00:37:25.059 it as well
00:37:40.930 00:37:40.940 all right I'm back a few mood now this
00:37:43.870 00:37:43.880 is my second beaker mark number two with
00:37:47.260 00:37:47.270 that other
00:37:49.150 00:37:49.160 salt in it
00:37:51.660 00:37:51.670 I'm gonna go ahead and make a command
00:37:53.819 00:37:53.829 decision here go ahead and filter it
00:37:56.010 00:37:56.020 right in with this if went into solution
00:37:58.319 00:37:58.329 I hope I don't ruin the experiment right
00:38:01.230 00:38:01.240 here but here goes nothing wet filter
00:38:03.599 00:38:03.609 this right into the same beaker
00:38:07.230 00:38:07.240 00:38:15.740 00:38:15.750 00:38:29.750 00:38:29.760 okay both of these solutions have been
00:38:33.510 00:38:33.520 filtered now the liquid down here is
00:38:38.040 00:38:38.050 ammonia the pure palladium dissolved
00:38:41.490 00:38:41.500 into it
00:38:44.120 00:38:44.130 it's a blue color
00:38:46.579 00:38:46.589 what I'm gonna do now is add some
00:38:48.559 00:38:48.569 hydrochloric acid to this Andrea Sinha
00:38:51.829 00:38:51.839 Phi it and see if I can get that
00:38:53.870 00:38:53.880 palladium salt
00:38:55.830 00:38:55.840 to precipitate out of it
00:39:00.520 00:39:00.530 I've got some 31% hydrochloric acid
00:39:05.100 00:39:05.110 that's what's in this container right
00:39:07.510 00:39:07.520 here and out of that plastic container I
00:39:09.730 00:39:09.740 just show what I'm gonna do is go ahead
00:39:12.880 00:39:12.890 and add some acid to this solution now
00:39:18.340 00:39:18.350 and let's see what happens here
00:39:22.570 00:39:22.580 00:39:42.320 00:39:42.330 00:39:44.500 00:39:44.510 go ahead and start pouring some in here
00:39:46.660 00:39:46.670 slowly
00:39:50.450 00:39:50.460 00:39:51.950 00:39:51.960 they're those I see a yellow color
00:39:53.720 00:39:53.730 starting to appear dere
00:39:55.660 00:39:55.670 00:40:01.580 00:40:01.590 see that yellow color starting to appear
00:40:05.349 00:40:05.359 means we're really to buying this
00:40:06.699 00:40:06.709 solution you should start kicking that
00:40:09.400 00:40:09.410 precipitate out that real pretty yellow
00:40:11.380 00:40:11.390 there it goes there it goes look at that
00:40:13.329 00:40:13.339 and very nice very nice
00:40:19.130 00:40:19.140 and who gets to do this this is awesome
00:40:28.000 00:40:28.010 that's our pure palladium salt ice
00:40:30.840 00:40:30.850 unbelievable man that is so cool
00:40:40.330 00:40:40.340 now the refiner I talked to earlier said
00:40:42.640 00:40:42.650 better not overshoot with the
00:40:43.840 00:40:43.850 hydrochloric acid or start put the stuff
00:40:46.060 00:40:46.070 back in solution
00:40:50.880 00:40:50.890 that's our pure palladium salt I'm gonna
00:40:53.100 00:40:53.110 stop right there I don't know how much
00:40:55.740 00:40:55.750 acid I added I wouldn't keep them track
00:40:58.430 00:40:58.440 as you can see that stuff just looks
00:41:00.410 00:41:00.420 gorgeous
00:41:04.180 00:41:04.190 beakers a little bit warm
00:41:05.990 00:41:06.000 00:41:08.210 00:41:08.220 so that was definitely an exothermic
00:41:09.589 00:41:09.599 reaction
00:41:10.830 00:41:10.840 00:41:13.750 00:41:13.760 with temperature reading here
00:41:17.440 00:41:17.450 it's 115 degrees Fahrenheit 46 degrees
00:41:22.330 00:41:22.340 Celsius
00:41:25.030 00:41:25.040 and here's what our super tape looks
00:41:27.430 00:41:27.440 like it's formed a little bit on the
00:41:28.780 00:41:28.790 layer in between there
00:41:31.040 00:41:31.050 what that's all about
00:41:34.630 00:41:34.640 this is so cool
00:41:36.710 00:41:36.720 I wish you can see it in person the
00:41:38.480 00:41:38.490 color is just gorgeous
00:41:45.790 00:41:45.800 we can I'm gonna save this filter paper
00:41:47.650 00:41:47.660 here with the other labium junk that I
00:41:50.980 00:41:50.990 got in that jar will processes
00:41:54.910 00:41:54.920 separately as there's still some plating
00:41:56.589 00:41:56.599 in there may be a Brammer so I'm gonna
00:41:58.300 00:41:58.310 keep all that processes separately
00:42:02.260 00:42:02.270 all right we're at the next step here
00:42:05.180 00:42:05.190 which is to get our plenty of salt in
00:42:09.650 00:42:09.660 this filter here so we can burn it
00:42:37.210 00:42:37.220 this fluffy yellow precipitate is not I
00:42:42.430 00:42:42.440 don't believe it's soluble in water so I
00:42:46.000 00:42:46.010 can rinse this out and
00:42:52.000 00:42:52.010 rinse the stuff in the funnel with some
00:42:57.460 00:42:57.470 distilled water here called distilled
00:42:59.710 00:42:59.720 water
00:43:12.790 00:43:12.800 okay what we're looking at here is all
00:43:15.290 00:43:15.300 the waste and byproducts that I produced
00:43:17.690 00:43:17.700 during this both of these videos parts 1
00:43:20.180 00:43:20.190 and part 2 these are all the papers then
00:43:23.630 00:43:23.640 I used to wipe up the overflow to the
00:43:25.370 00:43:25.380 head plus the filters are in there from
00:43:28.940 00:43:28.950 where I filtered out the ammonia
00:43:31.310 00:43:31.320 dissolved plenty of salt that's in the
00:43:34.130 00:43:34.140 paper there too what I'll do is probably
00:43:35.860 00:43:35.870 process this process this with some aqua
00:43:39.350 00:43:39.360 region this is the waste from the first
00:43:44.390 00:43:44.400 video it's got to be zinc in it there's
00:43:46.490 00:43:46.500 some play diem down at the bottom of the
00:43:48.290 00:43:48.300 container there and I'll recover that
00:43:50.530 00:43:50.540 this is the Platinum that we got out of
00:43:53.060 00:43:53.070 the out of the palladium solution when
00:43:57.980 00:43:57.990 we added the morning' chloride that's
00:43:59.930 00:43:59.940 some platinum that precipitated out over
00:44:05.060 00:44:05.070 here we've got all the waste liquids
00:44:08.240 00:44:08.250 from all the containers I just used some
00:44:12.620 00:44:12.630 regular distilled water and rinsed
00:44:15.080 00:44:15.090 everything down into this one container
00:44:16.700 00:44:16.710 and then here finally is our final
00:44:19.970 00:44:19.980 product which is the Palladium salt and
00:44:23.660 00:44:23.670 what we're going to do now is go ahead
00:44:25.040 00:44:25.050 and put this in a fused quartz dish I'm
00:44:26.810 00:44:26.820 gonna burn off the compounds and leave
00:44:29.450 00:44:29.460 behind the pure palladium metal sponge
00:44:33.050 00:44:33.060 or do that right now what I have here is
00:44:36.800 00:44:36.810 a fused quartz dish in my professional
00:44:41.270 00:44:41.280 refiner friend said that the best way to
00:44:45.880 00:44:45.890 to render this palladium from this salt
00:44:50.060 00:44:50.070 would be to use formic acid without have
00:44:54.980 00:44:54.990 any formic acid maybe I'll do another
00:44:57.650 00:44:57.660 video and and demonstrate how to do that
00:45:01.490 00:45:01.500 but for this one I'm just going to use
00:45:04.130 00:45:04.140 their old-fashioned cal signing method
00:45:07.070 00:45:07.080 where I put the put the salt to dry it
00:45:11.750 00:45:11.760 out pretty good I left it sitting there
00:45:13.340 00:45:13.350 in the funnel for quite a while we'll
00:45:16.280 00:45:16.290 put this salt in the
00:45:21.000 00:45:21.010 in the fused quartz dish here
00:45:24.620 00:45:24.630 we can get it out in there
00:45:27.500 00:45:27.510 that a little bit of liquid with it
00:45:30.220 00:45:30.230 come on out
00:45:35.930 00:45:35.940 there we go
00:45:37.960 00:45:37.970 that's got a lot of liquid in there
00:45:40.520 00:45:40.530 get rid of some of that before I start
00:45:42.610 00:45:42.620 start the burning process because I
00:45:45.770 00:45:45.780 don't it'll start spattering all over
00:45:48.560 00:45:48.570 the place
00:45:50.070 00:45:50.080 I'm gonna use a small disposable pipette
00:45:52.800 00:45:52.810 here to try to get some of this liquid
00:45:55.050 00:45:55.060 out of this material here
00:46:16.460 00:46:16.470 it's a little better
00:46:19.200 00:46:19.210 put this on the low-low heat and just
00:46:24.030 00:46:24.040 let this liquid
00:46:26.640 00:46:26.650 that paid off there
00:46:28.890 00:46:28.900 just took the temperature here
00:46:33.349 00:46:33.359 goodness it's up to 180 7.5
00:46:37.720 00:46:37.730 maybe 6.4 Celsius turn the heat down a
00:46:41.410 00:46:41.420 little bit here
00:46:42.390 00:46:42.400 00:46:45.760 00:46:45.770 I've been on there about ten minutes now
00:46:49.349 00:46:49.359 temperatures at 170 Fahrenheit
00:46:53.690 00:46:53.700 so 26.8 see
00:46:57.180 00:46:57.190 just let that slowly evaporate off until
00:47:00.540 00:47:00.550 it gets dry and then I'm trying to eat
00:47:01.920 00:47:01.930 up on it start burning off the compounds
00:47:04.800 00:47:04.810 to leave behind the metal
00:47:07.960 00:47:07.970 this would be a plating swamps been on
00:47:10.180 00:47:10.190 there now for about 35 minutes pretty
00:47:13.870 00:47:13.880 much dried out
00:47:17.890 00:47:17.900 temperatures 176
00:47:21.480 00:47:21.490 III see
00:47:23.800 00:47:23.810 00:47:30.400 00:47:30.410 the salt lady him salt in that dish
00:47:33.920 00:47:33.930 there started making some popping noises
00:47:35.980 00:47:35.990 so I turn the temperature down just a
00:47:38.300 00:47:38.310 little bit to go ahead and let it cool
00:47:40.850 00:47:40.860 off well there's evidently some more
00:47:42.770 00:47:42.780 moisture in there that needs to be back
00:47:44.150 00:47:44.160 right off before we go go in high with
00:47:46.760 00:47:46.770 the heat
00:47:59.109 00:47:59.119 00:48:06.720 00:48:06.730 all right the heats really cranking it's
00:48:11.010 00:48:11.020 been on here for about an hour and a
00:48:12.840 00:48:12.850 half now
00:48:16.710 00:48:16.720 - 65c
00:48:19.800 00:48:19.810 5:09 Fahrenheit
00:48:24.829 00:48:24.839 fifty-five centigrade
00:48:31.650 00:48:31.660 when Cal signing this material it's
00:48:34.300 00:48:34.310 important not to get that heat to higher
00:48:36.150 00:48:36.160 what will happen is it'll melt and then
00:48:39.070 00:48:39.080 vaporize off and go right up the stack
00:48:41.440 00:48:41.450 and you'll lose the metal it's got to be
00:48:43.780 00:48:43.790 done slowly
00:48:54.230 00:48:54.240 00:49:03.700 00:49:03.710 try to help the side a little bit by
00:49:05.989 00:49:05.999 putting a torch on it on the top there
00:49:08.059 00:49:08.069 to burn some of that paper away
00:49:37.620 00:49:37.630 let's get a temperature on it here
00:49:42.339 00:49:42.349 3:28 centigrade 622 Fahrenheit
00:49:58.650 00:49:58.660 okay the salt has been cow signing now
00:50:02.670 00:50:02.680 on here for about two hours and I can
00:50:07.380 00:50:07.390 see down in there I still got some onion
00:50:09.470 00:50:09.480 burnt material there so we're going to
00:50:14.069 00:50:14.079 have to keep going with this process
00:50:15.900 00:50:15.910 until we get everything burnt
00:50:17.090 00:50:17.100 00:50:29.870 00:50:29.880 00:50:39.579 00:50:39.589 the dish has been on there for two and a
00:50:42.289 00:50:42.299 half hours now I've got it at 525
00:50:48.649 00:50:48.659 Fahrenheit
00:50:51.459 00:50:51.469 274 degrees see
00:50:57.710 00:50:57.720 now there's 286 to 292 C 547 to 558
00:51:04.539 00:51:04.549 those temperatures are enough to a Cal
00:51:07.970 00:51:07.980 signed all our material I don't see
00:51:10.250 00:51:10.260 anything else smoking so everything's
00:51:13.190 00:51:13.200 been driven off here these are the ashes
00:51:16.880 00:51:16.890 of the paper that stuff in the filter
00:51:18.710 00:51:18.720 paper I sure used an ash list filter
00:51:22.309 00:51:22.319 paper but that's all I had so I've got
00:51:25.849 00:51:25.859 ashes in with my palladium metal sponge
00:51:32.079 00:51:32.089 you know a real way to get this get a
00:51:37.220 00:51:37.230 yield on this is to melt it up in the
00:51:38.779 00:51:38.789 crucible I meant to weigh the fused
00:51:44.539 00:51:44.549 quartz dish and put the weight on the
00:51:46.250 00:51:46.260 side of it before I started this and I
00:51:47.870 00:51:47.880 forgot to do that then we could just let
00:51:50.539 00:51:50.549 this cool down and then weigh it with
00:51:52.490 00:51:52.500 the material in it and subtract it to
00:51:54.200 00:51:54.210 and get a weight on the actual palladium
00:51:57.140 00:51:57.150 sponge but that's the plating sponge
00:51:59.150 00:51:59.160 it's done okay here's the blade iam
00:52:04.549 00:52:04.559 sponge I've let it cool down for about
00:52:06.769 00:52:06.779 20 minutes or so and I figured that's
00:52:11.120 00:52:11.130 rather anti-climatic to see a bunch of
00:52:14.299 00:52:14.309 hashes there in a dish so I'm gonna try
00:52:17.870 00:52:17.880 to put it in this crucible right here
00:52:21.200 00:52:21.210 and try to melt it up into a button so
00:52:25.880 00:52:25.890 we got some metal show for our efforts
00:52:44.420 00:52:44.430 I've won a couple of pieces of filter
00:52:46.980 00:52:46.990 paper here and I'm gonna go ahead and
00:52:48.420 00:52:48.430 try to wipe out the residue out of the
00:52:50.370 00:52:50.380 dish so we can include that with our
00:52:54.240 00:52:54.250 melt
00:53:12.380 00:53:12.390 get all of it out - we can
00:53:20.300 00:53:20.310 here I'm in uncharted territory I've
00:53:22.880 00:53:22.890 never melted palladium before I'm adding
00:53:25.670 00:53:25.680 a bunch of borax to help hold the powder
00:53:29.090 00:53:29.100 in the crucible so the flame doesn't
00:53:30.800 00:53:30.810 blow it out of there
00:53:38.580 00:53:38.590 I've got that special thick crucible to
00:53:43.480 00:53:43.490 retain the heat as I melt the Palladium
00:53:48.150 00:53:48.160 sponge here I'm using an oxy acetylene
00:53:52.800 00:53:52.810 torch with a cutting head on it it's the
00:53:57.460 00:53:57.470 hottest flame on the planet I've been
00:53:59.859 00:53:59.869 told at over 6000 degrees Fahrenheit you
00:54:09.849 00:54:09.859 really can't see what's going on here
00:54:11.650 00:54:11.660 but the metal starting to melt and form
00:54:13.839 00:54:13.849 a button down in the middle of that melt
00:54:15.460 00:54:15.470 dish and then the next segment you'll
00:54:17.620 00:54:17.630 hear me give out a little yell of joy
00:54:19.900 00:54:19.910 because it forms up into a nice button
00:54:22.720 00:54:22.730 for me
00:54:32.559 00:54:32.569 or war
00:55:07.650 00:55:07.660 Hey
00:55:16.280 00:55:16.290 Wow
00:55:38.490 00:55:38.500 man what an awesome rewarding experience
00:55:42.430 00:55:42.440 that was I didn't know if I was gonna be
00:55:45.340 00:55:45.350 able to melt that it's the first time
00:55:46.570 00:55:46.580 I've ever melted palladium it's got a
00:55:50.170 00:55:50.180 real neat mirror finish on it
00:55:53.349 00:55:53.359 bottles kind of frosty looking but let's
00:55:56.710 00:55:56.720 go ahead put on a scale over here and
00:55:58.090 00:55:58.100 see how much we weigh 3.5 3.5 grams of
00:56:06.359 00:56:06.369 pure palladium pure palladium button
00:56:12.990 00:56:13.000 well what an awesome experience you
00:56:16.690 00:56:16.700 might have heard me Yelp out when I was
00:56:18.490 00:56:18.500 melting that stuff and it formed up into
00:56:20.650 00:56:20.660 a button
00:56:21.220 00:56:21.230 I'd never melted palladium before I
00:56:23.349 00:56:23.359 didn't know if I was gonna work or not
00:56:24.730 00:56:24.740 man but it came out real good and I'm
00:56:27.310 00:56:27.320 real pleased with that but what I'll
00:56:29.530 00:56:29.540 probably do is list this on my eBay
00:56:32.050 00:56:32.060 store and sell it it's probably three
00:56:34.960 00:56:34.970 nights fine okay I'm a little closer now
00:56:37.810 00:56:37.820 to being able to refine my stock I had
00:56:40.690 00:56:40.700 I've done some platinum I've done some
00:56:42.730 00:56:42.740 palladium and that's what I was trying
00:56:46.480 00:56:46.490 to get geared up for us to find that
00:56:48.250 00:56:48.260 stock pot and be able to get those
00:56:49.599 00:56:49.609 platinum group metals out of there so
00:56:51.280 00:56:51.290 that'll be coming up here soon I feel a
00:56:53.770 00:56:53.780 little bit more confident now that I was
00:56:55.450 00:56:55.460 able to get the metals out of both of
00:56:56.800 00:56:56.810 those uh refining of the platinum and
00:56:59.230 00:56:59.240 the palladium and this will conclude
00:57:02.020 00:57:02.030 part two of the video this thing is just
00:57:05.560 00:57:05.570 awesome looking it's got a neat little
00:57:07.810 00:57:07.820 mirror finish to it it's just absolutely
00:57:11.109 00:57:11.119 gorgeous I would like to say thank you
00:57:15.040 00:57:15.050 to my subscribers and my viewers I put
00:57:18.760 00:57:18.770 out that little plea for some financial
00:57:21.670 00:57:21.680 help I'm not asking for charity I'm just
00:57:25.240 00:57:25.250 asking for folks to go to my eBay
00:57:27.310 00:57:27.320 website it's called ballast and I've got
00:57:30.910 00:57:30.920 some really nice jewelry items on there
00:57:33.250 00:57:33.260 for sale and so it'll help me out I'll
00:57:36.070 00:57:36.080 make a little bit of money by selling
00:57:37.720 00:57:37.730 those pieces of jewelry so it will help
00:57:39.910 00:57:39.920 me out and help me to keep going with
00:57:41.410 00:57:41.420 these experiments and make
00:57:42.789 00:57:42.799 these videos thanks I got a nice
00:57:45.759 00:57:45.769 response from that last post and woke up
00:57:49.719 00:57:49.729 the next morning their bank
00:57:50.949 00:57:50.959 three of the items had sold they'd sit
00:57:52.779 00:57:52.789 there for a months and I was just so
00:57:55.329 00:57:55.339 grateful for that thank you for folks
00:57:57.219 00:57:57.229 for uh for stepping up and and helping
00:58:00.429 00:58:00.439 me out with that respect okay
00:58:03.189 00:58:03.199 this will conclude part two of the
00:58:06.099 00:58:06.109 palladium refining video I'm gonna go
00:58:09.249 00:58:09.259 home and list this and we'll put this up
00:58:10.959 00:58:10.969 for sale thanks for watching
