Abstract:Indonesia is a country that has abundant mineral resources, including nickel resources in laterite ore. Nickel demand has risen significantly because of the need for nickel precursors for battery production. Nickel laterite can be processed via the hydrometallurgical route to obtain nickel precursor by leaching the laterite ore with an acid solution to produce a nickel-rich solution or Pregnant Leach Solutions (PLS). This nickel-rich solution is then processed by precipitation with a base solution to make its … Show more
