Recovery of nickel and cobalt from nitrate-based nickel laterite leach solutions using direct solvent extraction

A direct solvent extraction system was developed to recover nickel and cobalt from nitrate-based nickel laterite liquors, as opposed to traditional sulphate-based liquors. The development and optimisation of promising solvent systems is reported, along with a comparison of three potential options to...
