Nickel is widely used in stainless steel, nickel-based alloy, electroplating, batteries and catalysts. Dalvi et al. [] reported that about 70 pct of the ore reserves were found in laterite ores (oxide ores), with the rest of sulfide ores, but the Ni production from the laterite ores were only about 40 pct. Furthermore, with the depletion of sulfide …
Nickel is a kind of silvery white ferromagnetic metal firstly separated by Swedish mineralogist A.F. Cronstedt in 1751.
