    Abstract: A method for recovering metal zinc from a solid metallurgical waste containing zinc and manganese, may include: (a) bringing the solid metallurgical waste into contact with an aqueous leaching solution comprising chloride ions and ammonium ions to produce at least one leachate including zinc ions and manganese ions and at least one insoluble solid residue; (b) cementing the leachate, by adding metal zinc as a precipitating agent, to eliminate at least one metal other than zinc and manganese possibly present in the leachate as ions and producing a purified leachate; (c) subjecting the purified leachate to electrolysis in an electrolytic cell including at least one cathode and at least one anode immersed in the purified leachate to deposit metal zinc on the cathode and producing at least one exhausted leachate, and, before the electrolysis, precipitating manganese ions by oxidation with permanganate ions and subsequently separating a precipitate including MnO2.
