A method for purifying 
zinc sulfide solution comprises the following steps of: firstly, removing 
suspended solids from 
zinc sulfide solution by using a sean filter at a normal temperature; secondly, adding 
zinc powder by 120% of solution 
copper metal weight, stirring for 90 minutes at normal temperature for removing 
copper, and filtering; thirdly, adding zinc 
powder by 120-150% of solution 
cadmium metal weight, stirring for 60 minutes at a normal temperature for removing 
cadmium, and filtering; fourthly, increasing the temperature of the solution to the range of 82-94 DEG C, adding zinc 
powder in a proportion of 1 g / L of solution, and simultaneously adding some antimonous 
oxide, stirring for 50-70 minutes, removing 
cobalt and 
nickel impurities, and filtering; and finally, removing few 
suspended solids from the filtered solution by the sean filter. The method provided by the invention is capable of directly producing 
copper slag and 
sponge cadmium product; and the solution is capable of meeting the 
quality standard requirements of fresh 
electrolyte even though no extra zinc powder is added to the solution to remove residual cadmium; therefore, the consumption of the zinc powder is effectively reduced.
