  • @zero-waste

    I process lots of Hard Drives, but I never crush them up. The more you mess up the material, the more difficult it becomes to separate out and recover the values.
    I dismantle them instead. Afterwards, 100% of the tin and lead from the solder is recovered by a metallurgical process. All individual electronic components are then processed (in separate batches) for full recovery of all values. Finally, the bare boards are processed for recovery of Bromine and the epoxy content, leaving nothing but glass fibers behind which is recycled as waste glass.
    Mixing up the material causes nothing but troubles. Remember: You can only extract one element (read: Metal) at the time. Keeping the individual parts of Hard Drives whole during the entire recovery process makes everything much easier, and way faster!

      All my many different processes are profitable, and all are scalable/suitable for use in an industrial plant. In fact, many of the processes I use are actually "down scaled" from how large commercial recycling companies are operating.

      @@zero-waste i dont know which video but you talked about recocery of tin and types of solders, how long you submerge them before tin dissolves, and wires and components fall out, so no i dont remember which video i replied to.
      I noticed that you explained parts of your process (part 1, part2) i read those
      So you mainly do plastics and pyrolysis of pcbs
      Look i understand you dont have time
      But i am seriously interested in how exactly you do this step by step
      If you arent comfortable sahring it here on youtube, we can type on discord or email... Depends on you
      Sieving components is very smart, but how do you process each category? Do you get acid on cheap (nitric)? (i understand you get bromine and chlorine from fire retardants and pvc - - - > hcl + bromine for gold recovery)
      Do you smelt each category of sieved components?
      I dont know your process, guys at gold refining forum have many processes and all its about is precious metals, so i dont know your process for recovering all that is economically profitable, thats why i have so many questions.
      They dont do things in bulk like you do, so thats why i wanna learn from you
      I dont wanna spend my time picking each component, testing it. So your method must be really great, so please answer me if you have time, thank you.

    I know old aviation equipment has lots of gold components! Something to think about! Jason, I know you do a lot of mining and such with Dan Hurd on some of his claims. Question, ( Fraser River ) Do you think some of the finer pieces of gold are coming from the moss that has dried up and have been washed by rain and even the river ? I was curious due to knowing that the moss works as a natural gold mat. It seems like it would make sense!

    Seems like a slap-assed way of going about it, especially due to the neodymium magnets inside. Got a hard time believing this is more efficient in the long run than removing certain parts, specifically the control board and magnetic head, before shred. But if the main money is in the destruction service itself, guess it's a wash.

    I see such a waste. Open them up and recycle the unmixed high grade pure aluminum, fantastic magnets and high speed motors that can be reused for many different things. I 3d printed a simple double bracket that will hold two motors and lots of options for free blades based on design. Once you expose those plates to air dust and hand oils you would be spending a ton of money to try and get any data. Once you have the metal separated do you magic on the circuit boards.
