Abstract:Today, nickel plays a critical role in the industry. However, the presence of this metal in its primary source of sulfide minerals is decreasing. The focus of exploration has since turned to laterite ore, which contains up to 80% nickel metal. The purpose of this study is to optimize nickel leaching using sulfuric acid and to conduct kinetic analysis to discover the mechanism that best controls the leaching process. To optimize operating conditions, the response surface method (RSM) with box behnken design is … Show more
