The Beer Forge Melted!
Who knew concrete could melt?! I did use refractory cement and not polyurethane base...or so I thought.

    Its probably Chinese concrete. China is known for extremely poor quality concrete, where the manufacturers cheap on ingredients, and it does not meet spec. There are tons of issues in China with buildings where people can break the concrete apart with their bare hands. In China they call it "tofu dreg" construction. It seems you got some of that concrete.

    Hopefully you can find a better way to atomize your fuel better. Seems like you are having too much fuel coming out as droplets. I would think it would be much better as a super fine mist because your cruicible was soaked. Doing good though i like your design.

      Thanks! Yeah, I bet you're right. I think the main problem is just me being too impatient. I think I'll also add another air compressor to push through more air, and that should also atomize the fuel better too...maybe. The one I have is just a small 5gal air compressor

    Also, you need to roast copper sulfides before you process them further by leaching or smelting. Otherwise you wont get copper out as it is strongly bonded with sulfer and you have to turn the sulfides into oxides to grt the copper out. Roasting releases very dangerous sulfur gas so get a good mask. If roasting the first seems to much of a work l. You should use borax, soda ash, silica and carbon to get a good smelting result. silica bonds with iron to form slag and soda ash removes sulfides but this makes a very thick slag that doesnt move even if it is melted so borax comes into play here to turn the melt very liquidy and flowy. Sorry forget the right term to use instead of liquidy and flowy while writing this comment.

    you can make 2 forge burners that are way more simpler, cheaper and time efficient to make at home. And instead of the type of furnace you're making you coyld make a more effective furnace buy getting a drum with a bigger diameter. Line it with 2inches thickness of ceramic wool or kaowool, 1 then another do another lining of 1 inch thickness with fire bricks, they are white. Very light and porus. And then finally top everything with refractory cement. Give it a day or 2 to cure and then run the burner at low flame init for 40 50 minutes. Once every thing is cured and dried, you can reach 1100 degree Celsius in about 15 minutes with just one of those 2 propane forge burners. This will save you a lot of time and lungs because waste oil has very bad smoke when it burns. Also the method you are using would work with diesel, i dont think waste oil would work with this kind of nozzle. Waste oil is very thick and has alot of crap in it which can clog the nozzle. There are specialized atomizers made for waste oil, you can get one of those. Im doing the same thing as you, refining copper and stuff and im a beginner aswell, just sharing the knowledge i got from learning and experience. If you wanna know in detail how to set that furnace and forge burners up. LMK, be happy to help.

    Out of curiosity, how are you going to separate all the soot and tar from the burning oil? I would think that having it directly into the smelter would make it build up on the inside... I'm no expert by any means, but i recon you wont be able to get it hot enough, with enough oxygen, to burn everything 100%. I suppose you could really pressurize the air to force in more oxygen. Super curious about how this turns out tho. Also, be sure to seal the kaowool before you fire it up. That will absorb a ton of oil and also release cancerous fibres Also, is there a purpose to preheating the oil after its mixed with air? Rather than before it enters the mixing chamber? You might (once again, talking outta my ass) have more flow because the oil will be thinner by the time it hits the air, rather than after

    • @OutdoorStuff216
      @OutdoorStuff216 3 місяці тому

      So I do realize it's going to build up crap as the oil burns. I could try to filter it, and maybe I will in the future, but I want to have a burner that can run on several different fuel types. Plus, I want to see how well it does with straight used engine oil. I will be coating the Kaowool in the fireproof concrete. The reason why I want to preheat the oil is to help it burn better. I have thought of preheating it before it disperses, but again, I want to be able to use different fuels like diesel...and I don't want it to blow up. Also, I might add gasoline to the mix (I do know gasoline is explosive & I know how to handle it) to help the oil to ignite better and get up to heat faster. Hopefully, this makes sense. In any case, I'll be showing the whole process in the next video. Thanks for your input and questions. Let me know what you think about the next video when it comes out. 🤘

    im looking to do the same thing. look into the froth flotation process. seems easy enough to jury rig something up that would be worth doing instead of trying to go right to the smelting process. electrolytic separation would also remove any final impurities from the after smelted result. hope to see more of this dude! seems like we're to only 2 of our age group that find this stuff cool or interesting lol

    SO glad to see younger guys getting into mining! You're definitely on the right path, especially when it comes to researching and investigation. PRO TIP: If you find "bat bars", you're onto good gold! 😉 Also, label, and preferably mark via gps, ANY and ALL of your sample bags! It'll save you heartache later. I'll be making a video on that soon...since I learned that lesson the hard way, lol! Liked and subbed!

    • @OutdoorStuff216
      @OutdoorStuff216 Рік тому

      I’m fairly positive it’s oxidized manganese and pyrite. I’m going to crush some of the samples with the lager pockets of black because from what I read the manganese and pyrite (once oxidized) will leave gold. I’ll show it in one of my next video’s
