Problems solved by technology

However, due to the extremely complex properties of lateritic nickel ore, some key production technologies have not yet been resolved. In addition, the wet process has large equipment investment, high equipment requirements, high pressure, and high acid consumption, which affects the raw ore grade and impurities such as calcium and magnesium. The shortcomings of strict content requirements, low nickel content, high production cost, and high carbon content of the nickel pig iron produced by the pyrotechnic process have restricted the large-scale development and utilization of laterite nickel ore.

Abstract

The invention relates to a fire pre-processing method for a low-grade lateritic nickel ore which belongs to the field of nonferrous metal. The method includes following steps : the low-tenor lateritic nickel ore mine is cracked; vulcanization pre-processing is carried out; a metal sulfide is generated; the ore concentrate and the tailing of the nickel purite can be obtained through carrying out one time roughing, four time choiceness and three time scavenging on the preprocessed lateritic nickel ore and returning the middling ores in sequence; under a magnetic field intensity of 6000 to 10000 oersted, one time open roughing and three time open choiceness are carried out on the flotation tailing; a magnetic product is iron ore concentrate; the rest products are combined into the total tailing. The technology of the invention has the characteristics of high material suitability, short flow, good vulcanization effect, device investment saving, low production cost, and the like, thus leading the subsequence beneficiation techniques to be greatly simplified and being capable of producing the mixed ore concentrate of nickel and cobalt, the iron ore concentrate and the tailing as well as obtaining a higher metal ore concentrate grade and a high recycling rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of beneficiation and smelting, and relates to a method for pyrosulfurization pretreatment of complex and refractory low-grade laterite nickel ore. The low-grade laterite nickel ore pretreated by this method is then enriched and comprehensively recovered with valuable metals by conventional mineral processing technology . Background technique [0002] The world's currently proven nickel resources are about 160 million tons, of which 30% are sulfide ores, 70% are laterite nickel ores, and about 70% of nickel metal comes from sulfide ores. The mineral composition of low-grade laterite nickel ore is complex and changeable. According to the geological origin of laterite nickel ore, the ore layer is divided into limonite layer, transition layer, and humus layer from top to bottom. From top to bottom, the iron content gradually becomes lower, and the calcium, magnesium and nickel content gradually become higher. Due to the...
