Abstract

The invention discloses a comprehensive recycling method for a limonite containing nickel, which is characterized by including the following steps: pressurizing and leaching are carried out on the ore material particles of the limonite containing nickel by using a mixed liquid of vitriol and nitric acid as a medium so as to prepare a leaching liquid; aluminum hydroxide, nickel hydroxide, cobalt hydroxide and magnesium hydrate are respectively deposited through using CaO or lime hydrate as a neutralizing agent and controlling the different pH values of the leaching liquid. The method realizes the comprehensive utilization of nickel, cobalt, aluminum, magnesium and iron in the limonite containing nickel; a pressurizing and leaching technique is adopted in a vitriol plus nitric acid medium; the leaching temperature and the leaching pressure are low, wherein, the iron is deposited into the slag in a hematite form, thus effectively inhibiting the leaching of the iron; the settlement performance of a soaked ore slurry is good; liquid-solid separation is easy; the CaO or the lime hydrate is adopted for depositing the aluminum, nickel, cobalt and magnesium by steps; and the leaching agent of the nitric acid can be recycled. The method has the advantages of high operating factor of resources, low energy consumption, environment friendliness, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recycling nickel-containing limonite, in particular to a method for comprehensive recycling of nickel-containing limonite. Background technique [0002] The traditional laterite nickel ore extraction techniques include: 1) rotary kiln drying pre-reduction-electric furnace reduction smelting to produce ferronickel; 2) sintering-blast furnace vulcanization smelting to produce low nickel matte; 3) sintering-blast furnace reduction smelting to produce nickel pig iron; 4) adding Press acid leaching and reduction roasting-ammonia leaching, etc. Rotary kiln drying pre-reduction-electric furnace reduction smelting is a classic process for processing nickel laterite ore. The process is as follows: Nickel laterite ore with a water content of about 30% is dried, dehydrated and pre-reduced at 800-900°C in a rotary kiln before being sent to the ore. Thermoelectric furnace, reducing and smelting at a high temperature of about 1...
