Carbon + nickel (II) oxide = Nickel + Carbon monoxide
Technology
Technology used in this reaction
Ultraline Cylinder Package
the Ultraline cylinder package is designed to minimize metal carbonyl impurities in CO by using an iron and nickel free container.
Benefit
Balanced pressure at outlets
Quicker to install
Reduced water-contamination risk
Nickel MOCVD Process
Nickel carbonyl refining process is approved by the environmental monitoring branches of the governments of Ontario, Canada
Benefit
High deposition rate
nickel alloys can be controlled during the deposition
Low residual stress
Very good uniformity of deposition.
The process is recognized as the most environmentally friendly metal refining process by the governments of Canada and the United States
