Hello everyone
I have been trying to process this metal to get rid of selenium but I think everything went in vain.
We tried with various fluxes such as sodium nitrate, potassium permanganate, wood chunks, caustic soda independently. Direct Nitric acid dissolution followed by AgCl precipitation and cementation of palladium by Zn. But the product always contains the same amount selenium always.
It is at this juncture I feel that I will not be able to proceed further without help.
I want to extract fine Pd from it.
Please guide me on how I can do it. :?:
Attached is the image of the bar (I have 5 such bars of 500gm each) with the analysis.
