Zikonyòm komèsyal fè sonje bagay gen 1-3%hafnium, ki dabitid pa yon pwoblèm paske chimik pwopwiyete hafnium ak Zikonyòm menm jan an tou. Pwopriyete neutron absorption yo pa dakò fòse yo sitèlman, sepandan, qui separasyon hafnium nan Zikonyòm pou reyaktè nikleyè. Plizyè separasyon rapid yo nan sèvi ak.

Commercial zirconium metal typically contains 1–3% of hafnium, which is usually not problematic because the chemical properties of hafnium and zirconium are very similar. Their neutron-absorbing properties differ strongly, however, necessitating the separation of hafnium from zirconium for nuclear reactors. Several separation schemes are in use.
