The invention provides a method for precipitating
nickel and
cobalt in a solution containing
nickel and
cobalt and a
cobalt nickel hydroxide product. The method comprises the following steps: step S100, carrying out a
seed crystal pretreatment reaction on a nickel-cobalt-containing solution by adopting first nickel-cobalt
precipitation underflow to form pretreated nickel-cobalt ore pulp; step S200, adding an alkaline
precipitation inducer into the second nickel-cobalt
precipitation underflow or the first nickel-cobalt precipitation overflow to carry out alkali
conversion reaction to form alkali conversion
crystal mush; s300, the pretreated nickel-cobalt ore pulp and alkali conversion
crystal mush are continuously introduced into a reactor for a nickel-cobalt precipitation reaction, and nickel-cobalt precipitated ore pulp is obtained; step S400, continuously performing dense separation treatment on the ore pulp subjected to nickel-cobalt precipitation; s500, the third nickel-cobalt precipitation underflow is filtered and washed in sequence, a nickel-
cobalt hydroxide product is obtained, and the problems that in the prior art, when nickel and cobalt are precipitated through a nickel-cobalt-containing solution, MHP is small in particle size and not prone to
sedimentation, the
water content of a
filter cake is high, or the precipitation rate is poor, and the
magnesium content is high before technical improvement are solved.
