nickel and cobalt smelting process and stainless steel

Nickel: smelting, producing-Metalpedia

Nickel: smelting; Extraction and purification; Nickel is recovered through extractive metallurgy: it is extracted from its ores by conventional roasting and reduction processes that yield a metal of greater than 75% purity. In many stainless steel applications, 75% pure nickel can be used without further purification, depending on the composition of the impurities.

Direct smelting process for stainless steel crude alloy ...

2018-5-26  Stainless steel crude alloy recovery from direct smelting of low-grade chromite, nickel laterite and manganese ores was investigated. The mixed low-grade ores were directly smelted in an elevator furnace at smelting temperatures ranging from 1550 to 1600 °C. Smelting experiments were conducted in a laboratory elevator furnace equipped with 8 U-shaped high-quality molybdenum disilicide heating ...

Electric Metals Limited - Nickel Industry Situation

To date, Indonesia has not been recognised as a producer of cobalt (nor related battery industry metals such as scandium, manganese, lithium etc..). This is mainly due to most of the laterite ore being sold or processed is for the ferro-nickel / stainless steel industry which consumes over 70% of nickel units produced world-wide.
