The invention relates to the technical field of
hydrometallurgy and inorganic nano material preparation, and discloses a preparation method of
iron oxyhydroxide and a preparation method of
iron oxide red. The preparation method of the
iron oxyhydroxide comprises the steps that acid leaching
slurry is provided, the acid leaching
slurry is composed of acid leaching liquid and a second
solid material, the acid leaching liquid is a
reaction product of an acid solution and a first
solid material, and the first
solid material and the second
solid material are solid raw materials containing
nickel and iron; introducing
oxygen-containing gas into the acid leaching
slurry, controlling the temperature of the acid leaching slurry to be 65-95 DEG C, carrying out oxidation
precipitation reaction, stopping introducing the
oxygen-containing gas after full reaction, and carrying out solid-liquid separation to obtain filter residues with
iron oxyhydroxide as a main component and
nickel-containing filtrate. The preparation method of the
iron oxide red comprises the preparation method of the iron oxyhydroxide and also comprises the step of preparing the
iron oxide red from the prepared iron oxyhydroxide. According to the method provided by the invention, effective separation of iron and
nickel can be realized, and high-value
recovery of iron is realized.
