    Separating silver chloride from copper and nickel chloride

    Hi,
    Beginner scraper here
    Does anyone know a good way to separate the silver chloride that is produced when dissolving the metals on electronics from the copper and nickel chloride also produced?
    Is this not a thing because it’s inefficient or because the silver recovered is not worth it?

    You might get more luck on a gold/silver refining forum.... Most of us here are just taking stuff apart and selling/scrapping it and not the end users who end up actually doing the refining. But, welcome none the less!

    Welcome from another Mainer.

    I would second what KSS is saying. In the past ... we generally had a prohibition on discussing refining. It may be in the forum rules somewhere. It's basically a safety thing because you really should be trained for that kind of work.

    We did have an interesting discussion a few days ago that you might find informative.
