ABSTRACT. A new process has been developed jointly by CSIRO and CESL, for separating cobalt from nickel in an impure leach solution. The process uses synergistic solvent extraction (SSX) with commercially available reagents, but in a novel and efficient manner using kinetic factors. It is applicable to dilute nickel leach liquors containing ...

Cobalt extraction refers to the techniques used to extract cobalt from its ores and other compound ores. Several methods exist for the separation of cobalt from copper and nickel. They depend on the concentration of cobalt and the exact composition of the ore used.

The widely used cobalt extraction process is high-pressure acid leaching process and reduction roasting-ammonia leaching process, of which the former is …
