The extraction of nickel (Ni) from ultramafic soils by phytomining can be achieved using Alyssum murale cultures. This study presents a new process for the valorization of Ni accumulated by this plant through the production of a Ni ammonium disulfate salt (Ni(NH4)2(SO4)2.6H2O). The process comprises an initial leaching of the ashes of A. murale with a sulphuric acid solution (1.9 M H2SO4, T = 95 °C, t = 240 min, TS = 150 g ash L− 1), producing a leachate rich in Ni (10.2 g Ni L− 1; 96% Ni solubilisation), Mg, P, K, Fe, Ca and Al. The pH of the acid leachate is increased to 5.0 with NaOH (5 M), followed by an evaporation step which produced a purified solution rich in Ni (21.3 g Ni L− 1) and an iron hydroxide precipitate. The cold crystallization (T = 2 °C, t = 6 h) of this solution by the stoichiometric addition (× 1.2) of ammonium sulfate generates a Ni ammonium disulfate salt, containing 13.2% Ni, that is potentially valuable to industry.
