Nevertheless, when reduction roasting–magnetic separation is used to treat laterite nickel ore with low nickel content, increasing the dosage by approximately 8–20% inevitably reduces equipment life and increases cost (Liu et al.,2021). Therefore, improving the grades and recoveries of iron and nickel is of major significance.
1. Introduction. In recent years, there has been an increased focus on the utilisation of low-grade nickel laterite ore, along with a growing demand for stainless steel and a declining supply of sulphide ores (Zhai et al., 2010).Among these sulphide ores, nickel laterite ore comprises 73% of the world's nickel resources and will be the …

enriching the nickel content of the ore. This is com-monly carried out by magnetic separation, Sotation, or a combinationof both after the ore is comminuted to below 200 m in size. The enrichment depends upon the degree of rejection of the other sulRde and non-sulRde gangue. The maximum grade of nickel achieved by Sotation is around 28% Ni.
Step 3: Finally, you can use electrolysis to separate nickel and copper. This process passes an electric current through two electrodes submerged in an electrolyte solution containing both metals. The electrical current causes one metal (in this case, nickel) to be deposited onto one electrode while the other metal (copper) remains in …

excellent cobalt-nickel separation primary leach liquor by Cyanex 272. However, manganese extraction from the leach liquor along with cobalt could not be avoided, thus increasing the cost of the process. For sulphide ores, there is another alternative; if the ore can be concentrated by flotation, matte smelting is used instead of leaching.
In addition to nickel, limonite ore typically contains 0.1-0.2% cobalt, 0.5-5% magnesium oxide and 40-50% iron.1 Leaching of limonite ore in acid solutions such as sulfuric, hydrochloric and nitric acid would result in a pregnant solution that contains nickel, cobalt, iron, magnesium and some other elements in lower concentrations such as ...
