Wohlwill process and electricity travels through the electrolyte of chloroauric acid. Gold and other metals are dissolved at the anode, and pure gold (coming through the chloroauric acid by ion transfer) is plated onto the gold cathode. When the anode is dissolved, the cathode is removed and melted or otherwise processed in the manner required for sale or use. The resulting gold is 99.999% pure, and of higher purity than gold produced by the other common refining method, the Miller process, which produces gold of 99.95% purity. For industrial gold production the Wohlwill process is necessary for highest purity gold applications. When
Industrial processes materials by forming their liquid form using a mould. Many materials exist in an impure form, purification, or separation provides a usable product. Early production of iron was from meteorites, or as a by-product of copper refining. The nature of an organic molecule means it can be transformed at the molecular level to create a range of products. Organized by product: A list by process: Industrial processes Industrial processes are procedures involving chemical, physical, electrical or mechanical steps to aid in the manufacturing of an item or items, usually carried out on a very large scale. Industrial processes are the
