Meeting 2021 TMS Annual Meeting & Exhibition
Symposium Ni-Co 2021: The 5th International Symposium on Nickel and Cobalt
Presentation Title “Around the Nickel World in Eighty Days” A Virtual Tour of World Nickel Sulphide and Laterite Operations and Technologies

Abstract Scope The world production of nickel of 2.38 million tonnes in 2019 ranks 5th in non-ferrous metals after aluminum, copper, zinc and lead. Nickel is produced from both sulphide ores and oxide ores from many countries, with nickel now a vital component in batteries for powering the new electric transportation age. This paper takes the reader on a virtual world nickel tour of sulphide and laterite plants with a focus on smelter facilities. Operations and technology employed at each plant visited on the virtual tour are discussed including a brief historical sketch. Future technology trends identified during the world tour are also discussed. The present authors considered sufficient time was required for a thorough study tour and settled on eighty days - the same as that for the celebrated fictional story of world circumnavigation in the 1870s- a time when nickel was in its infancy and considered a rare metal.
