Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing ferro-nickel alloy from red soil nickel ore, in particular to a method for producing ferro-nickel alloy by cold-rolling red soil nickel fine ore, a reducing agent, a bonder and a fusing agent to produce bricks and by using a tunnel kiln-melting and separating furnace reduction process, and belongs to the field of melting reduction. The method comprises the following steps of: mixing the red soil nickel ore serving as raw materials with the reducing agent, the bonder and the fusing agent uniformly according to a percentage ratio of 100:10-50:1-5:2-20, cold-rolling the mixture into the bricks, stacking the bricks on a trolley directly, and paving a layer of coke powder with the thickness of 20 millimeters on the surface of the trolley; and performing reduction in the tunnel kiln at the temperature of between 1,100 and 1,300 DEG C for 12 to 32 hours, crushing the reduced bricks for levigating and magnetic separation to obtain ferro-nickel ore concentrate, mixing the ore concentrate and right amount of additives for compacting to form balls, and smelting in the melting and separating furnace at the high temperature for about 20 to 60 minutes to obtain the ferro-nickel alloy. Through the method, the tunnel kiln is combined with the melting and separating furnace, the technology is mature, the operation is simple, and the process condition is easy to control.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production method of nickel-iron alloy. Nickel-iron alloy is produced by cold pressing laterite nickel ore with reducing agent (coal powder, coke powder, semi-coke), binder and flux (limestone, fluorite) into bricks. Background technique [0002] Nickel is an important strategic resource and also a raw material for stainless steel production. With the increasing application of stainless steel, the demand for nickel is also growing rapidly. At present, about 60% of the world's nickel production comes from nickel sulfide ore. The process of extracting metal nickel from nickel sulfide ore is facing the situation of resource depletion, and it will also face increasing pressure in the low-carbon economy. Therefore, with the development of ferronickel industry and the maturity of ferronickel smelting technology, people have gradually shifted their attention to the research and utilization of rich laterite nickel ore. At present,...
