There are many different types of businesses that can benefit from silver recovery, but some business owners and managers are not aware that they are sitting on a silver mine right in their own office! Silver is used in many common items-even films! The last thing you want to do is let all of these precious metals go to waste, and you can earn some good money from those tiny bits of silver you’re tossing out every day. Every little bit adds up over time, and you can actually create a new revenue stream for your business - simply by recycling your silver! The easiest way to recycle all those bits of silver that come through your office in some form is to invest in a silver recovery system.

Here are some of the best silver recovery systems:
1. The Ecolution 1 is perfect for small darkrooms. This unit combines its own spill tray on wheels and comes with a 5 gallon reservoir tank.

2. The Ecolution 2 has similar characteristics as the first model, although slightly larger in size, utilizing a nine gallon tank. It also has a quiet pump chamber that can handle either a single or dual pump. The Eco 1 and ...
... 2 were part of our original Ecolution series. Both units also have a removable lid to pour silver solutions directly into the unit.

3. The Ecolution D3 has a seven gallon tank and is probably the most versatile option in the Ecolution line because it can handle a single, dual, or triple bellows pump. If you need to start small and have the option to increase your silver recovery efforts as your business grows, then the Ecolution D3 is a great choice.

4. The smallest option in the Ecolution series is the Ecolution D-mini. This one has a five gallon tank and is so small that it will even fit inside a cupboard. It is one of the best solutions for someone wanting to batch their waste chemical and/or hook up directly to their processor.

5. The Silver Maker - This silver recovery system has been popular for decades. This dual cell unit can work as a gravity overflow system when there is low volume. However, it is recommended that it be used with an Ecolution metering system, which will help by controlling the fixer’s flow rate and make the entire unit function more efficiently.

6. The Silver Window - Even businesses with just a small amount of silver to recover on a regular basis can get in on the extra cash generated by silver recovery with the Silver Window. This system is extremely small and has a window which enables you to watch the silvery recovery process as it’s going on. The best use for this particular model is in medical imaging or when dealing with any kind of black and white film.

7. The Eco-flow -This model takes up less than one and a half square feet of space, and it is gravity fed so you don’t even need to have power to run it. All you have to do is pour the fixer into the unit and let it handle the silver recovery.

With most silver recovery systems, you do need to use cartridges to collect the silver. Probably the best type of cartridge on the market is the Quicksilver filter. There are certain levels of compliance that must be met whenever you are dealing with silver recovery, and these cartridges certainly fit the bill. They come in several different sizes and can accommodate different flow rates and change times.
