A perspective of stepwise utilization of hazardous zinc plant
In the present study, a new route for recycling the hazardous zinc plant purification residue was proposed by separating zinc and cadmium with alkaline leaching. The thermodynamic analysis results demonstrated that oxides of zinc and cadmium could be transformed into ZnO 2 2− and Cd(OH) 2 respectively in the alkaline …

Zinc-to-cadmium ratios in typical zinc ores range from 200:1 to 400:1. Sphalerite (ZnS), the most economically significant zinc mineral, commonly contains minor amounts of other elements; cadmium, which shares certain similar chemical properties with zinc, will often substitute for zinc in the sphalerite crystal lattice.

Cadmium
Cadmium. Cadmium (chemical symbol Cd, atomic number 48) is a relatively rare, soft, bluish-white metal. Its chemical properties are similar to those of zinc, and it is found in zinc ores. Unlike zinc, however, cadmium and solutions of its compounds are toxic and need to be handled with care.

A novel separation process for detoxifying cadmium
Mined zinc ores typically containing 5–15% zinc. They are usually crushed, ground and concentrated by gravity, magnetic separation or flotation to obtain zinc concentrates that typically contain about 55–60% zinc with other impurity metals such as copper, lead, iron and occasionally cobalt, silver, and cadmium (Habashi, 1997).

Zinc | Geoscience Australia
Zinc (Zn) was used in Rome and China more than 2000 years ago as a component of brass which is a zinc-copper alloy. The Romans and Chinese smelted zinc ores such as calamine (zinc carbonate) with copper to produce brass, used for coins, containers, armour and jewellery. They did not actually realise that zinc was a metal.

Process for separating cadmium and zinc from mixtures thereof
Cadmium is ordinarily found in nature as a minor constituent of zinc ores. These ores are usually subjected to a smelting operation for the recovery of zinc. The cadmium is deposited in the fumes from the Cottrell precipitators; these fumes are calcined and then treated with sulfuric acid to dissolve the cadmium and zinc as water-soluble sulfates.
