| Abstract Scope |
The use of nickel between 2010 and 2019 increased at a rate of 5.7% per annum. Nickel-containing alloy steels, stainless steels and nickel alloys are finding new uses in pollution control, energy efficiency, long lasting, sustainable and resilient infrastructure, safe food and water, and even the new generation of vehicles that will take us to the moon and beyond. The use of nickel in batteries, a key and rapidly expanding market, will be mentioned, but details will be presented in the Batteries session. The presentation will concentrate on new and innovative applications involving nickel that will contribute to the United Nations Sustainability Development goals. |
