The Casimir element of a fusion ring (R,B) gives rise to the so called Casimir matrixCof (R,B). This enables us to construct a generalized Cartan matrixD−Cin the sense of Kac for a suitable diagonal matrixD. In this paper, we study some elementary properties of the Casimir matrixCand use them to realize certain fusion rings from the generalized Cartan matrixD−Cof finite (resp. affine) type. It turns out that there exists a fusion ring withD−Cbeing of finite (resp. affine) type if and only ifD−Chas only the formA2(resp.A1(1)). We also realize all fusion rings withD−Cbeing a particular generalized Cartan matrix of indefinite type.
