I am writing this thread to discuss the stock pot. A lot has been said about stock pots and I will put them in the keyword thread along with this post because I'd like to take this opportunity to question its necessity.
Now everybody jumps up and down !!!OMG he lost his mind, the stock pot is sacred!!!!
Back when I joined this forum there was nothing addressing waste treatment. That is why I posted on this thread about one way for a smaller refiner to treat waste. In my mind, the copper cementation step in this method makes the container where all of the aqua regia waste generated goes into a stock pot.
So my position is all of your aqua regia waste is stock pot waste and an individual separate small pot to treat is not necessary. So we should now, in the tradition of gold refining forum good old fashioned debate, discuss this before I put selected stock pot topics into the keyword search thread.
