1) present, in laterite nickel industry, other factory uses 98% vitriol oil acidleach to produce nickel hydroxide, technique of the present invention overcomes various technical barriers, directly utilize after the decolouring desalination, the method that the useless dilute sulphuric acid acidleach red soil nickel ore that need not to concentrate extracts nickel hydroxide or nickel cobalt is a kind of brand-new Technology in nickel smelting industry, also can decompose red soil nickel ore in more efficient ground under low acidity;
2) the direct normal pressure pickling process of dilute sulphuric acid operational path, dilute sulphuric acid can be disregarded cost, and only this falls these approximately 30,000 yuan, and competitive edge is more obvious when the nickel valency is low;
3) after acidleach in leach liquor the pre-neutralization of the free acid of higher concentration adopt low iron high magnesium laterite nickel mine, effectively reduce the acid consumption of ton nickel, leaching yield improves 3% left and right than ordinary method;
4) heavy iron utilizes the moderate magnesium Ji Kuang of alkalescence, takes full advantage of the sour further leaching nickel that discharges in heavy iron process, has further improved the utilization ratio of sulfuric acid; Avoided simultaneously the formation colloids such as silicon-dioxide, ironic hydroxide in leaching ore pulp solution to be difficult to sedimentation;
5) adopt the heavy nickel of magnesite enrichment, filtrate adopt up-to-date cryogenic film concentration technique obtain pure water and sal epsom crystallization can be used for direct production magnesium salts, fertiliser containing magnesium, magnesium hydroxide, produce other magnesium products such as fire retardant, environmental protection treatment agent, sweetening agent magnesium hydroxide, water-fast closing/nanometer/activated magnesia, light/heavy/electrically molten magnesia magnesia/smart magnesia refractory materials, alkali formula/magnesiumcarbonate, MAGNESIUM METAL with the ammonia process such as carbon ammonium, iron dross removing is purer, can be used for ironmaking or production red iron oxide; Leach purer building materials or the production white carbon black of can be used for of white residue and pre-neutralization white residue, realize whole process nickel, cobalt, iron, the manganese of red soil nickel ore acidleach, recycle to extinction and the complete utilization of magnesium resource, advanced rationally, high, the mature and reliable of production efficiency, operating safety be stable, environmentally friendly, do not discharge any gas that hinders environment, waste residue is solid substance, recoverable, can plant trees, can afforest, the waste water energy qualified discharge.
Although the present invention is disclosed as above by preferred embodiment; yet, not in order to limit the present invention, anyly know this skill person, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; can do a little change and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion when looking claims scope required for protection.
