Over the years, I have collected a whole bunch of water based mercury waste. In this video, I will be recovering the mercury and disposing of the water.

@AlphasysNl 7 лет назад

Waste disposal and management is an often forgotten and obscured part. People love to see reactions and might think to do these things themselves, without thinking about the disposal process. This video is invaluable, since it shows it's not all fun and games.

@NileRed 7 лет назад

I agree!

@user255 7 лет назад

Yes, good reason not to experiment with mercury, lead, etc.

@Hawk013 7 лет назад

I understand a lot of the basic chemistry, and the rudimentary molecular physics behind it, but my memory is so far gone that I can't retain the formulas or even the chemicals for more than a minute or two. The ideas, yes, but not any specifics. The organic chemistry just completely loses me after two or three reactions. Still immensely interesting though.

I usually just add a wad of bare copper wire to my waste mercury jug and get pure mercury metal in one step, But I have always wanted to see this method. Any chance you can convert it to the red mercury sulfide? I haven't figured out how to do it yet.

@Seff2 7 лет назад

I always wondered how you clean up your waste cody :D

@NileRed 7 лет назад

It's funny that I honestly never thought of just adding a metal to reduce it. That is probably the better way, ha. I imagine is takes a long time though. I think to convert it you need high temp and pressure or something. In the end, the chemistry of the two kinds are pretty similar. Why do you want the red sulfide? As a dye or colorant?

@amosz5726 7 лет назад

I'll be trying to do this pretty soon, actually. I'm after a full set of historical paint pigments and so I'm intentionally making mercuric sulfide for it. There are vague references to the black sulfide being heated to temperatures in excess of 300 degrees celsius to convert its crystal structure to that of vermillion, and even to sublimation occurring at those temperatures. This could be useful for separating the mercuric sulfide from your celite, NileRed. I'll let you all know of my findings when I get around to it.

@MuzikBike 7 лет назад

I think it would be pretty interesting to see a liquid metal being cemented out onto a piece of solid metal. Especially copper with its deep, cold-coloured ions. Would the Hg bead up and only fall when it gets big enough? Or would it appear absolutely everywhere in the form of microscopic drops like condensation?

Great video, as always. I have suggestion for future synthesis - the Crystal violet dye, also known as gentian violet. It can be used for staining biological samples (like Eosin), it has some antibacterial effects and it can be used as pH indicator. In strongly acidic solutions, the color of the dye changes from violet to green and to yellow. In basic solutions, it decomposes and becomes colorless.

@brewer13210 7 лет назад

When filtering with DE (Diatomaceous Earth) you can continue to add small amounts of DE while you are filtering to keep the filter surface from being blinded. This keeps the filter process from slowing down.
