Abstract

The invention discloses a method for removing iron in leaching liquid of a lateritic nickel ore by oxidation. The method comprises the following steps of: regulating the pH value of the leaching liquid to 1.7-5.0 so as to precipitate Fe<3+> ions in the leaching liquid, and then regulating the pH value of the leaching liquid to 7.5-8.5 so as to convert Ni<2+>ions in the leaching liquid to Ni(OH)2 and precipitate and separate the Ni(OH)2. The method further comprises the following steps of: (1) regulating the pH value of nickel precipitant mother liquid to 8.6-10, converting Mn<2+> in the leaching liquid to Mn(OH)2 and precipitating the Mn(OH)2; (2) reacting the Mn(OH)2 in precipitates and oxygen to produce MnO2, using the precipitates containing the MnO2 as an oxidant, filling back to the leaching liquid, oxidizing Fe<2+> in the leaching liquid into Fe<3+> and regulating the pH value to precipitate Fe<3+>. In the method, the oxidant does not need to be additionally added, and the MnO2 produced by the self system is fully utilized as the oxidant, therefore, the cost can be reduced, the iron removing effect is great, and the content of the iron can be reduced below 0.025g/l.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of hydrometallurgy, in particular to a method for oxidizing and removing iron from laterite nickel ore leachate. Background technique [0002] Sulfuric acid leaching of laterite nickel ore includes pressure acid leaching, atmospheric pressure acid leaching and heap leaching. When treating laterite nickel ore by pressure acid leaching, Fe 2+ is directly oxidized to Fe 3+ , there is no Fe 2+ process. When treating laterite nickel ore by atmospheric acid leaching and heap leaching, the leachate contains Ni 2+ , Mn 2+ , Fe 3+ and a small amount of Fe 2+ Plasma. Fe 3+ When the pH is 1.7, it can be hydrolyzed and removed, while Fe 2+ Generally, it needs to be hydrolyzed and precipitated at a pH higher than 8.5, and Mn 2+ A pH greater than 9.0 is required for precipitation. The general process is to Fe 2+ Oxidized to Fe 3+ And it is hydrolyzed at lower pH conditions, and the commonly used oxidizing agents are H...
