L'argent présent dans les fixateurs usagés peut être récupéré en le précipitant par le zinc ou par un dérivé de l'urée, la guanidine. De même par le sulfure ou l'hydrosulfite de sodium. En général, la récupération se fait par électrolyse. On fait passer un courant électrique dans le bain à régénérer où se trouvent plongées des cathodes et des anodes sous tension de 0, 5 volt, cette tension variant selon le procédé choisi et l'importance de l'installation. La récupération n’ est rentable qu'à l'échelle industrielle. 1, record 2, French, - r%C3%A9cup%C3%A9ration%20de%20l%27argent
