Precipitation Chemicals & Water Treatment
Precipitation chemicals for recovering precious metals from liquid waste streams.
Our precipitation chemicals are designed for the recovery of precious metals from liquid waste streams — refinery effluent, electroplating rinse, hydrometallurgical bleed and the leachate produced downstream of our own leaching products. The same product range pairs with heavy-metal remediation chemistry so the line that produces revenue also closes the effluent loop.
Products in this family
- Selective Noble-Metal Precipitation
Targeted precipitation chemicals for recovering precious metals from liquid waste streams, including downstream of leaching.

Frequently asked
When do I need precipitation versus stripping?
Stripping products recover precious metals in solid form directly from solid waste — no precipitation needed. Precipitation chemicals are used when the metal is already in solution: either because you started with a liquid waste stream, or because you used a leaching product to dissolve it from a solid feedstock.
Can precipitation chemistry replace a resin column?
They solve different problems. Precipitation gives you a high-grade solid output for refining; resin gives you selective capture at low concentration. Most liquid-route lines use both.
Do you handle the disposal of heavy-metal sludge?
No — PolyGO is a chemistry vendor, not a hazardous waste handler. We design the chemistry to be compatible with your licensed disposal partner.
