Problems solved by technology

[0008] To sum up, although there are many studies on the metallurgical process of laterite nickel ore, due to the different mineral factors such as the source, grade and crystal structure of laterite nickel ore, the nickel and cobalt leached by acid leaching treatment are generally caused. rate is low, only 60% to 80%
In addition, because laterite nickel ore contains mineral components such as chromium, aluminum and iron, traditional pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy processes cannot effectively comprehensively utilize these valuable metals, which leads to the industrial utilization value of laterite nickel ore on the one hand. On the other hand, it leads to a large amount of toxic and heavy waste after smelting, which does not meet the requirements of clean production

Abstract

The invention relates to a clean production process for processing low-grade laterite-nickel ore by a sodium hydroxide alkali fusion method. The process comprises the following steps: taking laterite-nickel ore as a raw material, carrying out roasting reaction on the laterite-nickel ore and sodium hydroxide at high temperature, washing and filtering the roasted material, and leaching valuable metal salts in the laterite-nickel ore, such as water-soluble chromium, aluminium and the like generated after the reaction. High-temperature roasting damages the crystal lattice structure of the laterite-nickel ore, thereby greatly improving the leaching rate of nickel and cobalt in the subsequent high-pressure acid leaching process and the grade of Fe in acid leaching dregs; filtrate is prepared into chromium salt, aluminium salt and recyclable sodium hydroxide by operations, such as evaporation, crystallization, separation and the like, so that the laterite-nickel ore product is diversified. The leaching rate of hexavalent chromium in the laterite-nickel ore is more than 90%, the leaching rate of trivalent aluminium is more than 75%, the leaching rate of the nickel is more than 98%, the leaching rate of the chromium is more than 94%, and the Fe content of fine iron powder in the acid leaching dregs is more than 61%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of non-ferrous metal metallurgy technology and mineral resources processing, and specifically relates to a clean production process for alkali fusion treatment of low-grade laterite nickel ore by using sodium hydroxide. Background technique [0002] Because of its excellent performance, nickel has become an indispensable metal in aviation industry, defense industry and daily life. The mineable nickel resources in the world are divided into nickel sulfide ore and nickel oxide ore. Nickel oxide ore is red due to the oxidation of iron, so it is also called laterite nickel ore. At present, about 70% of the world's nickel is extracted from sulfide ore, but the nickel in the oxide deposit accounts for 65% of the total nickel reserve. Therefore, with the gradual reduction of nickel sulfide ore resources in the world, from laterite nickel The process of extracting nickel and cobalt from ores has gradually received widespread...
