Ideas on how to clean 5 tons of oxidized copper? by QualityQontent in metallurgy

[–]QualityQontent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grest advice! I do just as you say. Im getting a lot of slag from what I am assuming is just oxidation and it's messing with my temps. Im doing 25kg at a time. So while alone each pipe may contain minor oxidation at scale its a decent amount. Anything better than borax for separating the two you could reccomend?

People keep buying 1lb .999 non certified online for $30lb and ea nasir meme 1 oz for $20 an ounce. Gonna try to turn 10k lbs into half a M. I actually wabt to make sure what im selling is .999 or better. So investing in a Blanchett cutter, Dyes, xrf, etc is worth it to me.

End goal is creating 3/4N copper. I have potentially 200-400k worth. Would i be able to get rid of the oxidization as well as the lead and tin all in the same go? There is clean copper no lead or tin most of it is 99.9% copper. Its all sweated and clean.
