AP Recipe - How to make

[patnor1011]

??? sorry, I have searched forum but was unable to found out how to make AP.

 

[SilverFox]

Muratic acid and 3% hydrogen peroxide.

4 parts muratic to 1 part peroxide.

 

[patnor1011]

thanks... what should be that HCl concentration?

 

[Platdigger]

Muratic is generally around 31 percent.
It is not critical.

Silverfox: As to your post of November of '08.........

I am confused. I was under the impression that AR was 1:3 or 4 / nitric over HCL.. You mention using peroxide instead of HCL. Please explain. Phill

 

[jimdoc]

Its AP not AR in question in this post.

Jimdoc: Thank you much. I have it straightened out now. Phill

P.S. Have you seen the Geus website on the method from the Phillipines ? Tried it last night. IT WORKS !!!!!!!!!!!1

Possibly he is refering to the "Borax Method" of extraction found at this website?

I really like the blowtorch! (and the idea of not splashing mercury around the mangrove)

But I can't quite figure out how the blowtorch is used.

There are two hoses from the "carburettor" to the burner, but only one of these have a valve? (the one terminating in the mesh)

Is the drawing incomplete?

I only have 16-19% Hcl available. Can I still use it in 4:1 ratio or should I put (6-8):1 ratio in my case.
Thank you

You can use the same ratio.The only 2 things:
1.When you see a gray mud start adding more muriatic.
2.Put an air bubbler(as that for the fishtanks) to compensate adding peroxide to your solution,after the initial start(3:1 HCl:H2O2)
