Background art:
the world land-based nickel resource mainly comprises two types of weathered laterite-nickel ore and magma type copper-nickel sulfide ore. The quality of the sulfide nickel ore resources is good, and the process technology is mature, so the sulfide nickel ore is a main resource for producing nickel products. In recent years, with the increasing demand of nickel in the world, the resource of the mineable high-grade nickel sulfide ore is increasingly exhausted, and the low-grade nickel-copper sulfide ore becomes a key development object of the nickel industry under the condition of no new mineral resource support.
The low-grade copper nickel sulphide ore is a thicker mixed ore zone between a lean ore body and an upper oxidation zone of a primary sulphide ore, and is associated with a large amount of copper metal. The alkaline gangue of the mineral has high content and complex mineral phase structure, and the prior nickel sulfide ore smelting process is adopted for treatment, so that the defects of high energy consumption, low recovery rate of valuable metals, poor economic benefit and the like exist. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new method and technology for extracting metals from copper nickel sulfide ore.
Aiming at the mineral separation technology of low-grade nickel sulfide ores in Jinchuan, Xinjiang, Yunnan and other areas, a large number of scholars improve the mineral separation recovery rate, increase the concentrate grade and improve the recovery rate of metals from the aspects of researching new medicaments, introducing new processes and new equipment, but because of the complexity of the composition and the structure of the low-grade nickel sulfide ores, the loss of the metals such as nickel, copper, cobalt and the like in the mineral separation process is still the biggest problem to be overcome when the mineral separation process is applied.
In the aspect of pyrometallurgy, from the aspects of energy conservation and yield improvement, USSR researches that low-grade nickel sulfide ore is oxidized and then reacts with C and CaC1 at 900 DEG C2Or MgC12The recovery rates of Ni, Cu and Fe are 82.5%, 73.8% and 6.1% respectively. The problems of low metal recovery rate and high energy consumption restrict the development and application of the technology to a certain extent.
In the aspect of hydrometallurgy, a mixed acid system of nitric acid and sulfuric acid, an ammonia-ammonium salt system and a method for biologically leaching low-grade copper nickel sulfide ore to extract metals are mainly researched, the recovery rate of the metals in the acid leaching and biological leaching processes is high, however, the content of alkaline gangue is high, so that the acid consumption is high, and the cost is high; the ammonia leaching process has low metal recovery rate and low efficiency.
