Problems solved by technology

However, because it uses a rotary kiln for roasting, even though it is automatically controlled by a computer system, it still cannot completely solve the problem of material ring formation, so its production is not very continuous and stable.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a two-stage roasting mineral smelting integrated technique of laterite, and especially to the extracting and recovering of nickel, cobalt and iron in the low-grade nickel oxide ore. The laterite, additive and reducing agent are crushed into a granularity smaller than 5mm and are delivered into a rotary kiln for reduction roasting for a time period. The roasting temperature is controlled so that the material does not loop and is controlled lower than a softening temperature. After taking out from the kiln, the material is delivered into an intermediate-frequency heater for executing a two-stage roasting. The temperature is controlled so that the material flows out with a half-smelted state and enters into a water quenching pool for water quenching. After taking out and grinding, magnetic separation is executed for eliminating the non-magnetic impurity. Then the magnetic concentrate, namely the coarse ferronickel is obtained. The coarse ferronickel is refined with a conventional electric furnace for obtaining the ferronickel product. The aim of the invention is to process the laterite. The nickel, the cobalt and the iron are reduced to simple substances through reduction roasting. Then the nickel and the cobalt are separated along with the iron through the magnetic separation. The coarse ferronickel is generated and the ferronickel product is obtained after refining. The two-stage roasting mineral smelting integrated technique of laterite according to the invention has the advantages of simple technique, low cost, high recovery rate and easy generalization.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a non-ferrous metal smelting technology, which is a technology for producing ferronickel by combining pyrometallurgy and ore dressing technology on laterite ore to extract and recover nickel, cobalt and iron in the laterite ore. Background technique: [0002] About 30% of the global terrestrial nickel resources occur in sulfide ores, and 70% in laterite ores (nickel oxide ores). Currently only about 40% of global nickel production comes from laterite ores. With the acceleration of the development of laterite mine projects in the world in recent years, it is estimated that more than 50% of the global nickel production will come from laterite mines by 2012. Laterite ore has the characteristics of refractory mineral separation. Compared with nickel sulfide ore, laterite ore for smelting treatment has lower ore grade, higher smelting cost, and relatively poor development economy. [0003] The process of processing nickel oxide o...
