Problems solved by technology

Although extraction can often achieve a good separation effect, the extraction operation involves a variety of organic reagents and the operation is cumbersome. If the conventional precipitation method can be used to achieve iron removal and separation of cobalt and nickel, the process flow can be simplified, production costs can be reduced, and energy can be saved. consumption, increase production efficiency, and reduce environmental load

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for separating and recovering cobalt and nickel from waste iron nickel cobalt alloy, and belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metallurgy. The method comprises the steps as follows: 1) leaching the waste iron nickel cobalt alloy with 54% of Fe, 18% of Co and 28% of Ni through acidity of sulfuric acid to obtain a leaching solution with main metal of iron, nickel and cobalt; 2) forming a 'compounding agent-precipitating agent' system by utilizing one or more of the compounding agents of OH<->, NH3 and C2N2H8 and the precipitating agent of CO32, acting on the nickel-cobalt-iron leaching solution, and separating the iron and the cobalt through fractional precipitation to obtain a cobalt compound; and 3) compounding the nickel in the solution, and further electrolyzing to obtain the nickel. The method has the benefits as follows: the cobalt and the nickel in the solution of the waste iron nickel cobalt alloy are recovered through integration of the 'compounding agent-precipitating agent' system and the process steps, the cobalt in the leaching solution is separated from the compound nickel in the form of a precipitate, the nickel compound solution is electrolyzed to recover the nickel, and the 'compounding agent-precipitating agent' barren solution can be recycled. The method makes full use of secondary resources, and is simple in process and easy for continuous and automatic production.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a method for recycling waste iron-nickel-cobalt alloys, in particular to a method for recovering cobalt and nickel from waste cobalt-nickel-iron alloys by utilizing a "coordination-precipitation" system. Background technique: [0002] Cobalt and nickel are precious non-ferrous metals, which are widely used in high-tech fields such as national defense, aerospace, atomic energy, chemical industry, and electronics. In addition to primary minerals, cobalt-nickel raw materials also include a large amount of waste iron-nickel-cobalt alloys, such as scrapped machines, used batteries, spent catalysts, spent functional alloys, smelting waste residues, etc. The waste iron-nickel-cobalt alloy contains a large amount of valuable metals nickel and cobalt, and its treatment and recovery is conducive to the recycling of resources and is of great significance to the sustainable development of society.
