Abstract

The invention discloses a method for separating and gathering ferro-nickel from a laterite-nickel ore, and relates to a method for separating and gathering ferro-nickel by adopting a metallized reduction method. The method is characterized by orderly comprising the following process steps: (1) crushing a raw ore; (2) adding an accelerator, a gathering agent and a reducing agent to mix and pelletize, so as to form a pellet; (3) carrying out metallized reduction roasting on the pellet; (4) calcining, water quenching and levigating; (5) magnetically roughing; (6) grinding rough concentrate; (7) magnetically selecting, so as to obtain nickel iron concentrate. By adopting the method disclosed by the invention, borofluoride is added to intensify and restore, and prompt roasting to form a local slight soluble region in the roasting process; a hole formed by adding the gathering agent provides a track for migration of ferro-nickel alloy, and prompts migration and growth of the ferro-nickel alloy, so that the ferro-nickel alloy is produced in a worm state, a net state or a bar state in the roasting process, ore grinding and magnetic separating of roasting are facilitated, the product is high in quality, good in comprehensive recovery effect of ferro-nickel, simple in technological flow, wide in selectivity of main equipment, less in energy consumption, less in adding amount, low in cost and friendly to environment.

Description

technical field [0001] A method for separating and enriching ferronickel from laterite nickel ore relates to a method for separating and enriching ferronickel by using a metallization reduction method. Background technique [0002] Nickel is an important strategic material, which is widely used in stainless steel, alloy steel, special alloys, electroplating, petrochemical catalysts, battery materials and other fields. Among them, the demand for nickel in stainless steel production accounts for 65% of the global nickel demand. Laterite nickel ore reserves account for 72% of global nickel resources, and currently about 50% of metallic nickel is extracted from sulfide ores. With the gradual reduction of nickel sulfide ore resources and the development of ferronickel industry, the economic development of laterite nickel ore has been paid more and more attention by people. [0003] According to the distribution of ore beds and the content of iron and magnesium in the ore, lateri...
