The sulfation-roasting-leaching process has the potential to change this scenario once it can be applied to all kinds of nickel laterite ores and does not consume much acid, as in the atmospheric leaching process. The main characteristic of the process is the iron sulfates decomposition during roasting steps, which produces sulfur trioxide (SO3).
Mar 29, 2021 The sulfation-roasting-leaching process has the potential to change this scenario once it can be applied to all kinds of nickel laterite ores and does not consume much acid, as in the atmospheric leaching process. The main characteristic of the process is the iron sulfates decomposition during roasting steps, which produces sulfur trioxide (SO 3 ).
Lateritic ore in the presence of sulfur indicated that the nickel oxide can be selectively sulfidized to a nickel– iron sulfide at 400-550 oC [20]. Similarly, studies on sulfidation roasting of cervantite [21], chalcopyrite [22], lead–zinc oxide ore [23], as well as zinc and.
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, halloysite, quartz, and.
The roasted product was leached with water at 1 5 solid liquid ratios for 30 min at room temperature. In the roasting stage at 700 C, iron and aluminum sulfates decompose, while nickel sulfate remain in sulfate form till 760 C (Swamy et al. 2003). During roasting the following reactions occur 2Fe(OH)SO 4 Fe 2 O(SO 4) 2 + H 2 O (1) Fe 2 O(SO 4) 2.
Sep 04, 1999 In the process for extracting nickel, nickel ore is first crushed and then concentrated by flotation. The nickel concentrate is then sent to the smelter, where it is heated to high temperature. During this reaction, the sulfur is oxidized to form SO2 and SO3. This reaction is called roasting.
The reaction mechanism of ammonium sulfate activation roasting of nickel ore, and there is a bottleneck to higher sulfation of nickel. It is necessary to clarify the situation and gain insight.
Nickel smelting Extraction and purification Nickel is recovered through extractive metallurgy it is extracted from its ores by conventional roasting and reduction processes that yield a metal of greater than 75 purity. In many stainless steel applications, 75 pure nickel can be used without further purification, depending on the composition of the impurities.
For example, with one limonite ore, at a roasting temperature of 1,350 F., a 90 percent nickel extraction was obtained with about 1 second retention time where the reductant ore ratio was 7 SCF H 2 lb of ore and with about 5 seconds retention time where the ratio was 2.5 SCF H 2 lb of ore. The actual reductant to ore ratio for any specific.
436 Nickel Smelting and Refining cathodes is the most common technology used for nickel refining. Electrowinning, where nickel is removed form solution in cells equipped with inert anodes is the common refining process used for nickel. Chloride electrolytes are used although sulfuric acid solutions are used often. Waste Characteristics.
Sulfation roasting of nickel oxide-sulfide mixed ore concentrate in the presence of ammonium sulfate experimental and DFT studies Metals , 9 ( 12 ) ( 2019 ) , p. 1256 , 10.3390 met9121256.
(i) reduction roasting of nickel laterite, and (ii) reduction of basic nickel carbonate (BNC) and NiO to nickel. Nickel in laterite is associated with Fe-rich goethite and serpentine olivine particles. Re-sults indicate that the nickel recoveries from the limonite ores correspond closely to values pre-.
Laterite ore is one of the important sources of nickel (Ni). However, it is difficult to liberate Ni from ore structure during reduction roasting. This paper provided an effective way for a robust recovery of Ni from laterite ore by H2 reduction using sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) as a promoter. . It was found that a Ni content of 9.97 and a Ni recovery of 99.24 were achieved with 20 wt.
The low-grade nickel laterite ore used in this study was successfully upgraded through selective reduction by industrialized rotary kilns followed by magnetic separation. The results indicated that both iron metallization extent and nickel metallization extent showed obvious linear correlation. In addition, rational roasting temperature and prolonged grinding time could enhance the overall.
Mar 10, 2018 When the ammonium-to-ore mole ratio is greater than 2.2 1, only a slight increase of nickel and copper extractions can be seen, but a remarkable decrease by 6.2 of iron extraction is observed due to the formation of insoluble ammoniojarosite product ((NH 4)Fe 3 (SO 4) 2 (OH) 6) caused by the reactions of iron ions and excess ammonium ions in the water leaching process of roasting clinker (Shen et al., 2013), the ion reaction.
Sep 10, 2019 The roasting process of low-grade nickel sulfide ore with ammonium sulfate and sodium sulfate contains liquid–solid and gas–solid reactions, which can be analyzed with the shrinking core model (SCM). 20 The chemical reactions can be expressed as Eqs. 3 and 4.
Low-temperature roasting, selective decomposition and water-leaching were used to extract nickel and copper from low-grade nickel sulfide ore with highly alkaline gangue. The effects of variable factors, such as the dosage of roasting additives, the ore particle size, roasting time and roasting temperature, selective decomposition temperature and leaching temperature on the conversion of.
Jul 19, 2017 This study investigates the reactions of Na 2 SO 4 and its effects on iron and nickel reduction in the roasting of a high-iron and low-nickel laterite ore through gas composition, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscope analyses.

Jan 28, 2016 FERRO NICKEL ORE- A recent development in the extraction of nickel laterite ores is a particular grade of tropical deposits, typified by examples at Acoje in the Philippines. This ore is so rich in limonite (generally grading 47 to 59 iron, 0.8 to 1.5 nickel and trace cobalt) that it is essentially similar to low-grade iron ore.
Jul 29, 2011 Metal leaching from a low-grade nickel ore was investigated using an ammonium sulfate roasting-water leaching process. The nickel ore was mixed with ammonium sulfate, followed by roasting and finally leaching with water. During the process the effects of the amount of ammonium sulfate, roasting temperature, and roasting time on the leaching recovery of metal elements were.
