Abstract: Phase equilibrium of quaternary system Cd2+, Na+//Cl-, SO2-4-H2O at 298 K was studied by isothermal method. The study showed that the quaternary system bearing Cd included Na2CdCl4·3H2O phase field, seven univariant curves, three co-saturation points and five crystal phase fields. The crystal fields of equilibrium solid phases were Na2SO4, CdSO4, CdCl2·2.5H2O, Na2CdCl4·3H2O and NaCl, respectively. The physico-chemical properties of solution in the quaternary system indicated regular change along with the increase of Cd2+ concentration. The results indicated that Cd salts possess quite high solubilities in the system studied, which means a strong transfer of Cd2+ and a high pollution risk of soil environment.
