Zusammenfassung:The purpose of the invention is to remove copper selectively from a concentrated zinc sulphate solution by ion exchange. The method enables a significant reduction in the use of zinc powder during the solution purification of zinc sulphate solution and makes possible to avoid usage of arsenic or antimony trioxides as a precipitation chemical. The method is to be combined with the chloride removal that occurs as a sub-stage of solution purification.
