Abstract

The invention discloses a waste heat recycling system in the process of cobalt extraction, purification and iron removal and application thereof, wherein the technological application process of the whole set of device is that after solution from iron removal is pumped to a waste heat exchange plate for heat exchange, heat is transferred to chilled water at the evaporation side of a heat pump unit; the temperature of chilled water at the evaporating side of the heat pump is raised by waste heat from the deironing liquid, the heat pump transfers heat to the condenser side of the heat pump through a refrigerant medium, the temperature of circulating water at the condenser side of the heat pump is raised by the temperature from the evaporating side of the heat pump and the heat of a compressor of the heat pump, and the cobalt raw material leaching liquid is heated by the circulating water at the condenser side of the heat pump through heat supply plate heat exchange. The liquid after iron removal is taken away because of heat, the temperature is reduced, and the liquid after iron removal is recycled to the heating of the cobalt raw material solution through the process, so that the processing cost of cobalt extraction is reduced.
