Problems solved by technology

But this process is only suitable for lateritic nickel ore with low magnesium content, because high magnesium content in the ore will increase acid consumption and affect the process flow
In addition, high-pressure operating conditions also limit the application of high-pressure acid leaching.
Atmospheric pressure acid leaching process is currently a popular direction in the research of lateritic nickel ore treatment process. It has the advantages of simple process, low energy consumption, no use of autoclave, low investment cost, and simple operation. Howev

Abstract

The invention provides a method for extracting nickel oxide from lateritic nickel ores. The method comprises the following steps: the lateritic nickel ores are adopted to react with alkali; an obtained sodium silicate solution is used for preparing silicon dioxide through carbonization and decomposition; filter residue is carbonized and leached so as to obtain a magnesium bicarbonate solution; the magnesium bicarbonate solution is heated and decomposed so as to obtain magnesium carbonate; the remaining filter residue reacts with ammonium carbonate and then is filtered; and the nickel oxide is prepared from filtrate through ammonia distillation and calcinations. The remaining filter residue is mainly ferric oxide containing a few impurities, and can be used as an ironmaking raw material or to be deeply processed into the products with high additional value. The method has the advantages that the method is suitable for treating various lateritic nickel ores, simple in process flow and convenient in equipment, realizes the high-additional-value environment-friendly comprehensive utilization of lateritic nickel ore resources and the recycling of chemical raw materials, emits no waste residue, waste liquid or waste gas, and meets the requirements of industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for processing laterite nickel ore, in particular to a method for extracting nickel oxide from laterite nickel ore, and belongs to the field of nonferrous metal hydrometallurgy. Background technique [0002] The world's land-based nickel reserves are about 620 million tons, of which 30% exist in the form of nickel sulfide ore, and 70% exist in the form of laterite nickel ore. At present, about 60% of nickel in the world is extracted from nickel sulfide ore, but with the continuous increase of nickel demand and the gradual decrease of available nickel sulfide ore resources, the economic development of laterite nickel ore has become the key point of nickel metallurgy today. Research hotspots. [0003] Laterite nickel ore is formed by long-term weathering, leaching, alteration and enrichment of nickel-containing ore. It is a loose clay-like ore composed of iron, aluminum, silicon and other hydrous oxides. The lateritic ...
