Abstract

See full text

An object of the present invention is to provide a settling separation process for a neutralized slurry in which a neutralization step is efficiently performed for a leachate obtained by the leaching of nickel and cobalt from a nickel oxide ore, and further a neutralized precipitate obtained by precipitation of impurity components can effectively be separated and removed while inhibiting the filtration failure; and to provide a hydrometallurgical process for a nickel oxide ore, in which the above process is applied. In the present invention, a neutralization step is performed by using a magnesium oxide for a leachate obtained by the leaching of nickel and cobalt from a nickel oxide ore to obtain a neutralized slurry, and a neutralized precipitate is separated and removed by the addition of a cationic flocculant into the neutralized slurry.
