Hi all! I have about 1kg of mix chips (quad, s/n, ram) and i think to first pyrolize them in closed iron can, melt product and incinerate in open can. I will don't use torch but want to do this in my "home heat" furnace on the coal. I''m wonder if those little gold particles don't flow away from my can when I will burn them?

Chris,

You have much to learn before you jump into these processes. I understand English is not your first language, but you don't pyrolize chips, then melt the product, then incinerate it. I would also NEVER suggest putting chips into your home heating system.

Keep reading and studying the forum. All of these subjects have been discussed in much detail here. All of the information is here and free, but you have to take the time to study.

yes this process is more of a technique. it's not as straight forward as you would think.

also, I like to soak my chips in HCl to get rid of solder before going to the steel pot and incinerate

I also use a cookie sheet with a big rock on top of my steel pot, cuts WAY down on the smoke, the pot goes on top of a large propane burner. see patnor's post of the process he uses. search "flat pack" in the search box and find the posts. send him $5 paypal and he will send you a vary nice PDF on the process within a few hours.
