Zinc Sulphate Solution

This report presents a process for recovery and purification of metallic cadmium from a residue of the purification process for zinc sulphate solution in Thai Nguyen electrolytic zinc plant. The cadmium containing residue was digested by sulfuric acid of 140 g/l at a temperature of 700C for 4h, the obtained solution will be purified for removal of some impurities such as iron, copper, etc. The purified solution with concentration 50 g/l of Cd,  120 g/l of sulphuric acid and 0.1 g/l of gelatin as an additive will be subjected to an electrolysis process with current density of 50 A/m2 for recovery of metallic cadmium. The temperature of electrolyte is lower 400C. Overall recovery of cadmium is 90%,  purity of the obtained metalic cadmium  is up to 99.0%.
