The invention discloses a method for recovering
copper,
cobalt and
nickel from
copper and
nickel slag. The method comprises the following steps: leaching a soluble substance through ore
grinding and
powder concentration by using an acid, performing
solid-liquid separation to obtain a leaching solution I and leaching
slag I; oxidizing soluble metals in the leaching
slag I, regulating the pH value, precipitating and separating the iron, and performing
solid-liquid separation to obtain a separation solution II and separation slag II; continuously adding the
copper and
nickel slag into the separation solution II, regulating the pH value so as to ensure that soluble
silicon is precipitated in a
silicate form, and performing
solid-liquid separation to obtain a separation solution III and separation slag III; finally, precipitating the copper,
cobalt and nickel in the separation solution III by using
sodium dimethyl
dithiocarbamate and
xanthate, and performing solid-liquid separation to obtain separation slag IV, namely the
recovery product. According to the reasonable
process design, common chemicals and methods are used, the copper,
cobalt and nickel are recovered from the copper and nickel slag, the environment can be prevented from being polluted by waste residues, and rare metals such as copper, cobalt and nickel can be effectively recovered. Moreover, the product process parameters are easily controlled, and novel environmental
pollution is avoided.
