Embodiment 1

[0026] Take 500kg of lateritic nickel ore in the transition layer of Saibuku and add water to prepare the first pulp with a mass percentage content of 50%. The first pulp is heated to 70°C, 600kg of concentrated sulfuric acid is weighed and heated to 150°C. Sulfuric acid was mixed and leached at normal pressure for 1 hour. After leaching at normal pressure, 1000 kg of water was added for dilution. The dilution and stirring time was 0.5 h. After liquid-solid separation, 1350 L of normal pressure leaching solution and 128 kg of normal pressure leaching residue were obtained.

[0027]Take 1000kg of Sebuku limonite layer laterite nickel ore and add water to prepare the second pulp with a mass percentage of 50%. The temperature of the mixture obtained by mixing the second pulp with 1350L normal pressure leachate is raised from 30°C to 185°C after a heat exchange. ℃, and then heated the mixture to 235℃ with 270℃ high-pressure steam, and kept it warm for 1h; the heated mixture was rea...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for extracting nickel, cobalt and iron from low-grade laterite nickel ore. Laterite nickel ore on a transition layer and laterite nickel ore on a limonite layer are processed respectively, and the iron grade of produced iron concentrate reaches 60-65%; and meanwhile, after a resin adsorption technology is adopted and evaporation, concentrating and crystallizing areperformed, a nickel sulfate product containing 20-23% of nickel and a cobalt sulfate product containing 1-2.2% of cobalt are produced and can be used as raw materials for battery production. Accordingto the method, the economic benefit of a laterite nickel ore wet smelting process technology is greatly increased, it is achieved that a cold material before reacting exchanges heat with a hot material after reacting through a heat exchanger, energy consumption is reduced, and in addition, the technological process is simplified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of hydrometallurgy technology, in particular to a method for extracting nickel, cobalt and iron from low-grade laterite nickel ore. Background technique [0002] With the continuous reduction of nickel sulfide ore resources, laterite nickel ore will be used as the main raw material for the production of nickel products. Generally speaking, according to the chemical composition and mineral properties of laterite nickel ore, it can be divided into three types: limonite layer, transition layer and humus layer. The lateritic nickel ore in the humus layer has high nickel content and low iron content, so the pyro-reduction process can be used to produce ferronickel. At present, this technology is relatively mature and has good economic benefits. The lateritic nickel ore in the limonite layer has low nickel content and high iron content. If it is treated by pyrolysis, the amount of reducing agent will be large and...
