Mar 21, 2019 Zinc was used by the Greeks and Romans for centuries before it was actually considered a metal in its own right. It was given the official status of a metal in India during 1100s to the 1500s. A Chinese firm began refining zinc in the 1500s and a ship that was transporting Chinese zinc from India sank around the 1700s

Zinc smelting is no exception: when refining zinc metal, by-products are produced with concentrated other metals. Silver, copper, sometimes even indium, and germanium are among these. While providing these concentrated by-products to other metal producers, zinc smelters and refineries get by-products from other metal producers

Zinc smelting is the process of converting zinc concentrates (ores that contain zinc) into pure zinc. The most common zinc concentrate processed is zinc sulfide, which is obtained by concentrating sphalerite using the froth flotation method.There are two methods of smelting zinc: the pyrometallurgical process and the hydrometallurgical process (over 90% of hydrometallurgical process is in
