PRECIOUS METAL RECOVERY · PENANG, MALAYSIA

Your waste may hold precious metal. We recover it.

We recover precious metals (gold, silver, platinum, palladium and rhodium) from plating solutions, e-waste liquids and industrial scrap. Our Fujiro machines install on your line, and we test what comes out.

Scrap we recover precious metal from

Real examples from our work. Each one carries precious metals in its plating, pins or contacts.

  • Precious metal hides where you would not expect it: connector pins, chip lids, edge contacts and plated film.
  • Retired machines and old equipment often carry plated parts worth testing before you scrap them.
  • Liquids count too: plating baths, rinse water and stripping solutions.
  • Not sure what you have? Send a sample. We test it and tell you what it holds.

How Fujiro recovers gold

  1. Waste solution goes inYour plating or stripping solution circulates from your tank through the machine.
  2. Gold and silver collect on the cathodeLow-voltage electrolysis deposits the metal on a rotating titanium cathode.
  3. You take out the metalLift out the cathode and remove the recovered metal layer.
  4. Then refined and cast into barsThe recovered metal is refined and cast into bars.

Proof from a real sample

A waste solution was tested by MEP Enviro Technology's laboratory using AAS (atomic absorption spectroscopy). The richest of three tanks held 281 mg of gold per kg of solution. This is the hidden value our assessment looks for.

Tank 1 mg/kg
Tank 3 mg/kg
