The invention discloses a wet process preparation technique of
nickel. The technique comprises the steps that water
quenching is conducted on metallized high-
nickel matte; ball milling is conducted, deposition is conducted through a thickener, first-section normal pressure is applied, first-section leaching liquid, namely the finished liquid, is subjected to
cobalt removal through NIOOH prepared through electrooxidation, purified
cobalt-removed post-liquid is obtained through liquid-
solid separation, acid adjustment is conducted for electrodeposition, and electro
nickel is obtained; and electrodeposition post-liquid is subjected to
sodium washing and
nickel deposition so that Na+ in a solution can be removed, then
anode liquid is mixed with NiCO3 to prepare
cathode liquid, then the
cathode liquid and the
cobalt-removed post-liquid are mixed, subjected to acid adjustment and directly subjected to electrodeposition, and the electro nickel is obtained. The
anode liquid and nickel return liquid are converted into the
cathode liquid, so that the step that the
anode liquid returns to a leaching
system is omitted, an original complex and lengthy circulation path is replaced by internal short-path circulation, the circulation cost of the solution is greatly reduced, the yield of the cathode liquid is increased, production loads of a
grinding and leaching
plant are relieved, and meanwhile, the acid amount of the
system can be balanced.
