Kemet and Sprauge make most tantalum caps....if you can squeeze one with pliers fairly easily...not tant..Google Nippon chem Corp and see if they made tant caps

The tan colored ones in the first 2 pics and again in the last ones are MLCC. Keep them and sell for silver and palladium.

672D & 673D are aluminum electrolytical capacitors made by Sprauge, so they are not tantalum capacitors. Sorry that no one else was to State the bad news! Squeeze with a pair of pliers, should be easy to squeeze if aluminum, tantalum axial caps will be harder to dent.

Mike,

What if you did a test run like 1/2 a pound or a pound. That way you're not out too much if it doesn't pan out ?

Might also look into the feasibility of selling them for recovery of PM's like platinum, palladium, and silver ?

Don't know if it's solid info, but i read somewhere recently that the PM yields could be as high as 2% by weight. That could be a bit more than refining for tantalum recovery.

Yes, you can ship smaller amounts if you would like, To start off with our first transaction.

Do you mind telling us what is the actual amount of Tantalum SMD Capacitor Scrap you have to offer?

There are no PM's in Tantalum Capacitor SMD Scrap other then Silver and that equals to exactly 1.3% Ag in Capacitors.

1'000/Kilograms of processing equal 1.3/Kilograms of Ag or in Dollar terms about $650 USD.

I still have more to process but will try to get pics and weight of what I have currently

The prices that are listed on Ebay are currently listed at pricing that is more expensive then we can currently pay.

Our price for this load of Tantalum Capacitor Scrap would be

$39.36 USD for the full load of Ta Scrap delivered to our facility in Doral, Florida 33172.

Question...... I probably have 125-150 pounds or so of capacitors at the moment - most of them would be the silver looking ones in the picture below the picture with the blue capacitors.... not sure what type those are. The pictures that you have help a little, but they don't tell me what types of capacitors are in the pictures so I can match up dollar amounts. My question is do you have any descriptions for the different types of capacitors to match up with the pictures you have posted? I see two different types of red tantalum capacitors. How do I know what red capacitors go in the $35.00/lb. red top pile? Please advise.

Thank you very much for the comment, Please take some pictures of the capacitors you currently have available.
I would be able to provide exact answers to which Tantalum capacitors each type is.

Please email us at ronald@tantalumrecycling.com

Do you have a single picture with the different capacitors grouped out and written underneath identifying the different kinds. I have several different kinds from years of refining but never touched the tantalum capacitors, only pulled them from the boards and sorted leaving them in jars because I never had a buyer.

That would be so much easier than you just listing types of tantalum and a price. Do it like a scrap yard or even boardsort. The physical types you buy grouped together so we know how to seperate them and get the best price instead of separating in a hundred different ways.

I apologize - It seems as if you did not read all the 20 pages of board comments on our Tantalum Capacitor Scrap purchasing page.

Please contact us by Email - In order for me to provide you with all the different pictures and pricing of each individual type --- Our email address is attached on every comment that we make.

ah man, I really should take the time to go through all these pages to look at the different pictures. I do agree with the other guy though too, all pictures/categories of everything you take, with examples, in one place would be super helpful rather than someone having to go through 20 pages and trying to figure it out.....

I think I had a bunch (probably 50-75lbs) of what I now think were Tantalum Large Military Capacitors, after looking through the pages

I sent them in with shred just thinking they weren't anything special. Ive even been in this thread before, just never on "Page 11" before today ..... :'( ..... oh well, live and learn.
