Abstract

The invention relates to a laterite-nickel ore leaching and nickel separating method. The method comprises the following steps that laterite-nickel ore is selected and levigated; nickel-containing fine ore is added into and mixed with an ammonium bisulfate solution, so that ore pulp is prepared; the ore pulp is heated and reacts under stirring conditions, first solid-liquid separation is performed, and raw liquor and leach residue are obtained; the obtained raw liquor is rid of metal impurity ions and then pumped into a horizontal continuous reaction device along with ammonium hydroxide, thereby performing precipitation reaction; second solid-liquid separation is performed on slurry flowing out of the horizontal continuous reaction device, and nickel hydroxide and an ammonium sulfate solution are obtained; ammonium sulfate solid and water are obtained after the ammonium sulfate solution is evaporated and crystallized; and the obtained ammonium sulfate solid is heated and decomposed toproduce ammonium bisulfate and ammonia gas. According to the laterite-nickel ore leaching and nickel separating method, the main materials can be recycled, the process is simple, energy consumption islow, and the metal nickel can be effectively separated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mineral processing, and relates to a comprehensive utilization method of nickel-containing ore, in particular to a laterite nickel ore leaching and nickel separation method. Background technique [0002] Nickel is an indispensable strategic material for national defense industry and aviation industry. Nickel is mainly obtained from nickel-containing ore through metallurgical treatment. At present, the nickel resources available for human development and utilization mainly include nickel sulfide ore and nickel oxide 2, of which 30% are sulfide ore and 70% are laterite nickel ore. Laterite nickel ore does not contain sulfur, has no calorific value, and cannot be enriched by ore washing. It is uneconomical to use pyrometallurgy. It can only be treated by hydrometallurgy. The more mature process is sulfuric acid leaching. However, with the increasing demand for nickel in the aviation, aerospace and battery i...
