A central bulge and buffering tank reduce flash tank impact deformation while reusing released steam to preheat laterite ore slurry.
Multi-stage devolatilization, flash removal, and distillation recover C6 solvent and unreacted monomers while cutting POE process energy use.
Integrated acid and alkaline extraction recovers nickel, cobalt, and manganese from laterite ore for ternary precursors with greener waste handling.
