Example Embodiment

[0016] Example 1:

[0017] Mix 120g of waste lithium cobalt oxide powder and cobalt sulfide recovered from water treatment at a cobalt molar ratio of 2.3:1, add 2.0mol / L sulfuric acid, control the liquid-solid ratio to 6:1, and react at 65°C for 4 hours. After filtration, the filter residue was washed twice with 200 mL of water, and the filtrate and washing liquid were combined to obtain 988 mL of metal ion-containing solution. The content of each metal element is shown in Table 1:

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for leaching valuable metal. The valuable metal is either nickel or cobalt or both; and the method comprises the following steps of: mixing two nickel-cobalt-containing materials with oxidizability and reducibility according to a certain ratio, and leaching the valuable metal from the mixed raw materials by using acid. According to the method, the nature that the oxidizability and the reducibility of the two nickel-cobalt-containing materials are complementary is fully utilized, the consumption of substances, such as a reductant and an oxidant and the like, is reduced, the method is environment-friendly and energy-saving, and the leaching efficiency of the valuable metal is high and the processing cost is low, so that the method has greater social and economic benefits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the comprehensive utilization of waste secondary resources, in particular to a technology for efficiently leaching nickel, cobalt and other valuable metals from materials containing nickel and cobalt.
