Efficacy of reduction pre-treatment of laterite ore on the extraction of Ni, Co, and Sc was determined by comparing the %recovery obtained between leaching untreated ore and reduced ore (treated at 700 °C for 40 minutes) at 20 wt% solids, 85–90 °C, 360 minutes, and experimental acid consumption of 386.4 kg H 2 SO 4 per ton of ore, as shown ...
Nickel's extractive metallurgy is the most complex since there are two major types of ores, laterites, and sulfides, which make this paper a valuable guide by providing an overview of the …
The extraction of molybdenum and nickel from Ni-Mo ore was attempted using oxidation complexation acid leaching. The effects of leaching temperature, leaching time, concentration of sodium chlorate and hydrochloric acid as well as sodium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaching of nickel and molybdenum were investigated.
Hydrometallurgy is a process used for nickel ore that has a grade of < 1.5%, while pyrometallurgy is still used for nickel ore that has a Ni content of < 3%. At present, the most common hydrometallurgical process is applied to limonite nickel ore. While the extraction process in pyrometallurgy uses saprolite nickel ore.
The nickel extraction could be enhanced in the presence of additives w13x. Nickel bearing chromite overburden samples from Kansa, India w14x were characterised and leached with acid, under pressure, to establish the relationship between the crystallinity of the goethite and the requirement of additives to enhance the nickel extraction.
also limited to concentrate the nickel. The mined ores (1–4% Ni) are processed to upgrade the metal content with 10–20% Ni in the concentrates. Thus, the preconcentration of nickel ores is an important unit operation to upgrade the nickel before commencing any extraction steps. Ni is mined from sulfide ores, Nickel ferrolaterite and serpentine.
In this study, segregation roasting and magnetic separation are used to extract nickel from a garnierite laterite ore. The garnierite laterite ore containing 0.72% Ni, 0.029% Co, 8.65% Fe, 29.66% MgO, and 37.86% SiO2 was collected in the Mojiang area of China. Garnierite was the Ni-bearing mineral; the other main minerals were potash feldspar, forsterite, tremolite, …
The sulfation roasting leaching method has been developed for the recovery of nickel from laterite ore because it offers greater flexibility, and requires less energy compared to acid leaching and smelting processes. However, the previous studies found that the mineral carriers from saprolite ore affected the recovery of nickel and cobalt. To address this issue, …
