Abstract
In the present study, some technological and economic fundamentals of zinc production are discussed. An economic assessment is made where possible production from zinc containing electric arc furnace dust is compared to conventional production from ore. The assessment shows that it is reasonable to assume that zinc production from dust would be profitable under present market conditions. This would, however, still require some technological problems to be solved.
