A novel process for treating and recovering valuable metals and other components from pickling acid residue (PAR) has been developed. The metals and other components are recovered by neutralizing the pickling acid residue using a magnesium compound or a mixture of magnesium compounds, and separating components of the resulting mixture (metals and sulfates) into products that can be reused, such as magnesium sulfate, nickel sulfate, iron and chromium phosphate, or various metal hydroxides or oxides.

Disclosed are a nickel-iron wet treatment method and an application thereof. The treatment method comprises: in a high-pressure oxygen environment, mixing a crushed nickel-iron material, sulphuric acid and a corrosion aid, performing an acid leaching reaction, then performing solid-liquid separation on slurry subjected to acid leaching, adding an oxidant into the obtained filtrate, performing heating, removing the corrosion aid, adding a precipitating agent into the filtrate, controlling the pH value of the filtrate, and performing solid-liquid separation to obtain a ferric hydroxide precipitate and a nickel-containing filtrate; and performing extraction and back extraction on the nickel-containing filtrate to prepare battery-grade nickel sulphate. According to the present invention, the nickel-iron is subjected to oxidation acid dissolution in cooperation with the corrosion aid under the high-pressure oxygen and acidic conditions; the nickel-iron is extremely prone to oxidation in the high-pressure oxygen environment; and a strong oxidant is added into the filtrate subsequently, so that ferrous ions in the filtrate are completely converted into ferric ions, and the corrosion aid can be oxidized to generate pollution-free carbon dioxide and water, thereby avoiding the impact of the corrosion aid on the subsequent extraction process.
