Finally, the techno-econ omical figure of the test and examples of vacuum distillation to extract cadmium are listed. The scale of pilot-plant test is up to hundreds kilograms. The refined cadmium and crude zinc can be produced by vacuum distillation of high-cad miferous zinc containing 29.11%Cd and 68.72% Zn in twenty stages.
To solve the problems about long-time shutdown of furnace for repair and high processing cost in the process for producing refined cadmium from zinc-cadmium alloy,sodium nitrate is added during removal of zinc using chemical method,so that zinc in the zinc-cadmium alloy can be reduced to 0.001% and the refined cadmium can be produced without re-distillation
The basic principle and test results of vacuum distillation of high-cad miferous zinc to extract cadmium are described. Characteristics of structure materials of the internal heating vacuum distilling furnace are illustrated emphatically.The important factors affecting the separation of Zn-Cd alloy are discussed, including vacuum, temperature, percentage of cadmium in the alloy, charging rate, distilling stages, and so on.Finally, the techno-econ omical figure of the test and examples of vacuum ...
