This process is known as the Wohlwill process. The Miller chlorination process is an economical refining process that separates gold of about 99.5% purity, which can then be electro-refined to improve purity to 99.999%.

Wohlwill Electrolytic Process. An old and well-established process, the Wohlwill method is widely used in major gold refineries, often in conjunction with the Miller process. (For typical jeweler's scraps and wastes, a preliminary refining step, such as the Miller or inquartation process, is required.)

When all impurities have been removed from the gold (observable by a change in flame color) the gold is removed and processed in the manner required for sale or use. The resulting gold is 99.95% pure, and of lower purity than gold produced by the other common refining method, the Wohlwill process (which produces gold of 99.999% purity).

How to Purify Gold with Fire? Process of Refining Gold by Fire. Cupellation; Miller Process; Wohlwill Process; A. Cupellation. Cupellation is a method of refining gold by fire that involves heating the metal in a cupel (a small, porous cup) to vaporize impurities. The impurities are absorbed into the cupel, leaving behind a purer form of the …

The gold refining systems we offer are cutting edge, and, unlike anything else on the market, they offer an effective alternative to commonplace refining processes like Miller, Wohlwill, Aqua Regia, and inquarting-parting.

The Wohlwill process is necessary for highest purity gold applications, and when lower purity gold is required refiners often utilize the Miller process due to its relative ease, quicker turnaround times, and because it does not require a large inventory of gold, in this case gold chloride, on site at all times.. A variant of the Wohlwill process is the fizzer cell.

Investment in gold refining equipment for the Wohlwill process is higher than that of the Miller process, reflecting the purity and value of the final product. The selection between the Miller and Wohlwill processes is dictated by various factors, including the desired purity level, the scale of operation, and economic considerations.

Discovered by Wohlwill, the most common method of electrochemical refining used for purifying the used gold, has two major limitations. Firstly, a high gold content of the anode (more than 95 %) is needed, which requires pre-refining with other refining methods (Miller process) associated with gold and silver loss.
