Summary: | The invention belongs to production techniques of ferronickel, and particularly relates to a method for producing pellets from laterite-nickel ore, which comprises the following steps: proportioning: evenly mixing 1-4 wt% of bentonite, 1-8 wt% of quicklime and the balance of nickel oxide; pelletizing: adding water to the uniform mixture until the water content reaches 10-15%, and pelletizing by using a pelletizer; screening to remove raw materials of which the particle sizes are smaller than 10mm, thereby obtaining qualified raw pellets; and roasting to solidify, and cooling to obtain the nickel pellets. In the invention, the pellets are made into alkaline ore with a certain alkalinity, and the amount of coke is reduced in the blast-furnace smelting, thereby improving the physical properties of the blast-furnace smelted ferronickel; and in the ferronickel smelting process, the coke ratio is low, the yield is high, and the content of nickel in the smelted ferronickel is high. |
