Abstract

The invention relates to a method for collecting ferronickel concentrate from lateritic nickel ores by a rotary kiln. The lateritic nickel ores are crushed, stirred and mixed with a carbonaceous reducing agent and a compound additive, made into pellets by a ball press or a marble machine and put into the rotary kiln for reducing and roasting; waste heat at the front part of the rotary kiln is used for carrying out the drying and preheating of the pellets; the high-temperature area of the rotary kiln is 9 to 10 meters away from a kiln outlet; the temperature of the high-temperature area is controlled to be 1000 to 1300 DEG C; roasting time is 0.5 to 2 hours; the dried pellets enter the high-temperature area of the rotary kiln for reducing and roasting; a magnetic separator with a magnetic field intensity of 3000 to 5000 gauss is adopted to sort roasted material obtained after water quenching and wet ball milling, thus obtaining high-content ferronickel concentrate; the method can realize the simultaneous recycling of nickel and iron and obtain the high-content ferronickel concentrate; the content of nickel is 5 to 13 percent and the recycling rate of nickel is 85 to 93 percent; the content of iron is 30 to 75 percent and the recycling rate of nickel is 60 to 85 percent; the reasonable utilization of the waste heat during process procedure achieves the purposes of saving energy and reducing discharge and greatly reduces pollution to the environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of non-ferrous metal metallurgy, in particular to a method for enriching nickel-iron concentrate with laterite nickel ore in a rotary kiln. Background technique [0002] Due to the recovery of the world economy and the huge demand of the stainless steel industry, the global demand for nickel metal continues to increase, which in turn leads to a continuous rise in the price of nickel. In 2006, LME's nickel price hit a record high of 16 years, reaching US$47,500 / ton. Nickel production investment is also very active. In this case, how to grasp the economics of developing laterite nickel ore has become very important. [0003] The world's terrestrial nickel reserves are about 470 million tons, of which 39.4% exist in the form of sulfide ore, and 60.6% exist in the form of oxide ore. Nickel sulfide reserves account for only 40% of the global nickel reserves, but provide 60% of the total nickel production. With the rapi...
