Penguin precious metal recovery systems are a simple, economical method for reclaiming gold and other precious metals from processing rinse water and drag-out tanks. The metal recovery system recovers an average of three troy ounces per pound. Even with the smallest unit containing just four pounds of resin pay for themselves after their initial use, the company claims. These units, with a pre-filter and a post-filter, effectively produce higher purity rinse water for improved rinse processing re-use. Various pump/chamber combinations provide for small laboratory operations up to 400-gallon large volume tanks.

A Process for Alkaline Non-cyanide Silver Plating for Direct Plating on Copper, Copper Alloys and Nickel Without a Silver Strike Bath
Traditionally, silver is electroplated in toxic, cyanide-based chemistry. Due to cyanide’s extreme hazard to human health and environments, developing non-cyanide silver chemistry is essential for the silver electroplating industry. Discussed here is an aqueous, alkaline non-cyanide silver plating technology, which can be directly plated over nickel as well as copper and its alloys. The silver deposits have perfect white color and better anti-tarnishing properties than other non-cyanide silver processes. The silver is plated entirely from the dissolving silver anode and the bath is very stable, and maintains a stable pH level both during plating and idle time. This new non-cyanide silver technology will plate bright silver that is perfectly suitable for electronic, industrial and decorative applications. .
