Nickel-based catalysts are key to supplying energy to power our transportation of goods and people, whether by land, sea, or air.
According to the International Energy Agency, renewable fuel demand is expected to grow rapidly over the next few years. Steve Deutsch from The Catalyst Group explains the role of nickel catalysts and the potential of renewable fuels.
Steven Verpaele, the Nickel Institute’s Industrial Hygienist explains how a new workplace exposure collection tool and database system will help prevent occupational diseases and contribute to creating a health and safety culture at the workplace.
As delegates to the UN COP26 Climate Change conference in Glasgow grapple with the climate crisis, clean energy solutions will be in focus. Although clean energy technologies rely on metals and minerals that are unavoidably energy intensive to produce, the IEA says that the climate advantages of these technologies remain clear.
The upstream and midstream oil and gas industries rely on nickel-containing corrosion resistant alloys for flowlines and risers. Rodrigo Signorelli, Outokumpu’s lead technical manager for marine and energy, explains how alloys reach the market.
