Method for extracting nickel and molybdenum from nickel-molybdenum ore acidic leaching solution

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting nickel and molybdenum from a nickel-molybdenum ore acidic leaching solution. The method for extracting nickel and molybdenum from the nickel-molybdenumore acidic leaching solution comprises the steps of 1) adding phosphoric acid to the nickel-molybdenum ore acidic leaching solution so that molybdenum in the solution is transformed into phosphorus molybdenum heteropoly acid; 2) using TBP as an extraction agent to extract the phosphorus molybdenum heteropoly acid to obtain an organic phase containing the phosphorus molybdenum heteropoly acid; andusing ammonium hydroxide to reversely extract the organic phase containing the phosphorus molybdenum heteropoly acid to obtain a molybdenum containing a reverse extraction liquor; and 3) supplementing sulfuric acid to an extraction raffinate after TBP extraction at 90-95 degrees centigrade; and when the concentration of nickel sulfate reaches 150-200 g/L, cooling the nickel sulfate at a room temperature to separate out nickel sulfate crystals, wherein a filter liquor after solid and liquid separation can be used for acidic leaching of nickel-molybdenum ores. By changing the occurrence state of molybdenum in the acidic solution, the molybdenum and the nickle in the high acid solution can be effectively extracted without adjusting the pH value of the solution. The method for extracting nickel and molybdenum from the nickel-molybdenum ore acidic leaching solution has the advantages of short process, simple and convenient operation, low production cost and easy industrialization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of extraction metallurgy of nonferrous metals, in particular to a method for extracting nickel and molybdenum from nickel-molybdenum ore acidic leaching solution. Background technique [0002] There are two ways of wet leaching of nickel-molybdenum ore: stepwise leaching and synchronous leaching. Alkali leaching of molybdenum-acid leaching of nickel is often used in step-by-step leaching, which has a long process flow, large reagent consumption, and high production costs. Therefore, in order to extract nickel and molybdenum resources more efficiently, many scholars have developed a simultaneous leaching technology for nickel and molybdenum. Wang Sifou and others used high-pressure acid leaching process to treat nickel and molybdenum ore, so that almost all nickel and most of molybdenum entered into the nickel molybdenum ore at the same time. In the leaching solution, the simultaneous leaching of nickel and ...
