Effect of SiO2/MgO Mass Ratio on Direct Reduction-Magnetic Separation Process of Low-Grade Lateritic Nickel Ore AITranslate
Abstract AITranslate
The SiO2/MgO mass ratio significantly influences the microstructure,mineral composition,and reduction roasting product properties of low-grade lateritic nickel ore,thereby playing a crucial role in selecting and optimizing the process parameters for direct reduction-magnetic separation of the ore.This study investigated the influence of the SiO2/MgO mass ratio on the product indicators of direct reductionmagnetic separation for low-grade lateritic nickel ore,explored the relationship between the SiO2/MgO mass ratio and the optimal magnetic field strength for magnetic separation,and optimized process conditions,including slagging agent ratio,roasting temperature,and roasting time.The results indicate that the SiO2/MgO mass ratio significantly affects the indicators of magnetic separation concentrate products.A lower SiO2/MgO mass ratio fails to create favorable conditions for the reduction of valuable metals Ni and Fe.As the SiO2/MgO mass ratio increases,the optimum magnetic field strength for magnetic separation gradually rises.The optimal SiO2/MgO mass ratio,slagging agent ratio,roasting temperature,and roasting time are 2.81,5%,1350℃,and 2 h,respectively.Under these optimal conditions with a reducing agent ratio of 25%,ore particle size of-3 mm,grinding fineness of 80%passing-0.075 mm,and magnetic field strength of 2000 Oe,the magnetic separation concentrate product yields a Ni grade of 4.87%,Ni recovery rate of 90.34%,Fe grade of 85.95%,Fe recovery rate of 88.21%,Co grade of 0.29%,and Co recovery rate of 94.25%.
