Production method of Nickel sulfate Powder

The refining methods of Nickel sulfate Powder mainly include chemical precipitation method and extraction method. Chemical precipitation method, this kind of method through the crude nickel sulfate solution for sulfidation precipitation, oxidation precipitation, fluorine precipitation and then evaporation crystallization to get products.

• (1) using sulfide precipitation in addition to copper and zinc, zinc removal effect is poor, easy to produce toxic gases H2S;
• (2) The use of oxidative precipitation, fluoride precipitation need to add sodium hydroxide to adjust the solution pH, the solution introduces a large number of impurities Na +, the product sodium content is too high. Extraction method is by using organic extractant D2EHPA, PC-88A and other extraction to remove impurity metal ions in the crude nickel sulfate solution after evaporation and crystallization to get the product. When the extraction method treats nickel sulfate with high impurity content, the extractant loss is large, the cost is high, and the extraction effect is poor for the impurities Fe, Ca, Mg and so on.

Nickel sulfate solution, add extractant, add alkali to adjust the solution pH value of 5.0-8.0, extraction to get the saponification extractant; the use of saponification extractant extraction of copper and zinc extraction level 1-4; the use of pure nickel sulfate solution washing loaded with nickel organic phase, and the number of its washing level is 1-4 levels.

Said base is an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkali metal oxide or an aqueous solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, an aqueous solution of an alkali metal oxide.

After removing copper and zinc the liquid is added to a kerosene solution of the extractant, the pH of the solution is adjusted to 5.0-8.0 using alkali, and the nickel in the solution is extracted to obtain the loaded nickel organic phase. The loaded nickel organic phase is washed with pure nickel sulfate solution to remove the sodium, and the washed loaded nickel organic phase is back-extracted with 0.5 mol-L-1-6 mol-L-1 dilute sulfuric acid to obtain a purified nickel sulfate solution;
