Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
Features

These cells using nickel hydroxide Ni (OH) 2 for the positive electrode (cathode). Hydrogen is used as an active element for absorbing hydrogen negative electrode (anode). This electrode consists of an alloy, usually consisting of lanthanum and metals which serves as a solid source of the reduced hydrogen and can be oxidized to obtain protons. The electrolytes are alkali, usually potassium hydroxide solutions.

Games
Exposure
E-Bikes
Power Tools
Cordless Screwdriver
Medicine
Advantages

High Energy Density
Can be discharged
The use of NiMH batteries up to 3000 cycles at a discharge rate of 100% was observed. At a lower discharge, for example, at 4%, can be expected to more than 350,000 cycles
Robust - NiMH batteries tolerate overloads and extreme discharges what battery management systems simplifies
Low internal resistance
Flat discharge characteristics (falls at the end of the cycle but rapidly)
very temperature-resistant
Rapid charging in an hour is possible
Trickle charging (very slow or partial charge) can not normally be used with NiMH batteries. Chargers should therefore have timer to avoid overcharging
A repair is possible
More environmentally friendly than other cell chemistries: No cadmium, mercury or lead, and nickel can be reused
Disadvantages

Very high self-discharge rate, up to ten times higher than lead-acid or lithium batteries
Suffers from the memory effect, although this is not as pronounced as in NiCd batteries is
Battery expires due to long storage. This problem can be solved by repeatedly charging and discharging of the battery before use. This processing may also resolve the problem of the memory effect
The high discharge rate is not as good as NiCds
Less tolerant of overloads as NiCds
As with the cell must NiCds a safety valve in case of a gas formation have
Coulombischen the efficiency of nickel-hydride batteries is typically only 66%, and the decrease is directly related to the load
Even if the battery has a high capacity, this does not necessarily mean that it is also usable, since it emits only 50% of the entire energy, depending on the type of application.
The cell voltage is only 1.2V, which means that many cells are needed to produce a high-voltage battery
Lower capacity and cell voltage as alkaline primary cells.
Charge

Discharging the battery completely each month in order to avoid a memory effect
The battery can not be in the charger
Low loading rate: constant strain rate followed by maintenance charges
Rapid charging methods require dT / dt charge accounts
Timer needed to avoid long maintenance charges

Nickel metal industry at a turning point?


Industrial metals have taken place since the outbreak of the financial crisis, large price fluctuations. The roller coaster ride was and is due to economic factors, as well as determined by the funding and production situation in the mining sector as well as the monetary environment in the markets. The latter has been improved by the recent expansionary measures of the major central banks.

Liquidity based courses

The third program of quantitative easing (QE3) by the U.S. Federal Reserve, the commodity prices, particularly for metals, strong drive in the coming months upwards. This proposition is the essence of a new Goldman Sachs study to the commodity market. But you have to see this prediction in the overall context. For example, the nickel price has dropped since its last high in February 2011 by about 38 percent - in the cyclical low of August this year had extended even to the minus 48 percent.

Indonesian Nickel ore exports decrease due to tax

Indonesian nickel ore and copper ore exports decrease due to export tax in this country.
A 20 percent export tax on various commodities resulted in commodity exports from Indonesia have declined dramatically. According to data from the Ministry of Commerce of nickel exports fell in June compared with the previous month by 80 percent to 572 000 tonnes. Exports of copper fell by 90 percent to 20,000 tons, Commerzbank reported in Commodities Daily. Bauxite, a precursor of aluminum was no longer shipped.

Nickel: Ceasefire in Norilsk

For the next few years by the table in any case, a merger with Rusal
and heavily indebted to the metal group Metalloinvest the world's
largest metallurgical company.
Moscow (est). About half a year, the world's largest nickel and
palladium producer, "Norilsk Nickel" buffeted by an irreconcilable
conflict between the principal owners. Now they have apparently agreed
to a constructive interaction. As Russia's Oleg Deripaska and Vladimir
Potanin top magnates (owns 29.9 per cent) on Tuesday announced that
they will lead the Group in future parity. For this purpose, four are
representatives of both sides - three independent directors and a
representative of the state - to move into the executive council.
The aim of the agreement is there, the group again on its feet.
Finally, the market capitalization of the Group by 4.5-fold to $ 13.53
billion was broken into. The devaluation had resulted in Deripaska's

A nickel mine of BHP Billiton in Australia

It was not a good year so far for Hans-Joachim Welsch. Of course, even the boss says the Rogesa Roheisengesellschaft Saar Dillingen, like all German industrialists on the current recovery, but more as a private citizen. Even if Welsch hut runs under full load, the boom is in the best of Saarlanders subdued.
About the blast furnaces, from the head of one had a beautiful view over the Natural Park Saar-Hunsrück to nearby France, hangs heavy weather. Since the beginning, the prices of key raw materials iron ore and coal have more than doubled. The hut Welsch hits the mark, because these precursors along with energy costs as the - also becoming more expensive - current account for 80 percent of the cost.
The problems is not alone Rogesa. "Raw material prices and rising concern terminal, almost all sectors of the German economy," says Joachim Rotering, commodity expert at consulting firm Booz & Company.

nickel element

NICKEL. A silvery-white metal, symbol Ni, first isolated in 1751, but
used in alloy form with copper since ancient times. Nickel has a specific
gravity of 8.902, or a density of 0.322 lb/in3 (8,913 kg/m3), and is
magnetic up to 680°F (360°C). Its electrical conductivity is 25% that
of copper, and its thermal conductivity is 48 Btu/(ft h °F) [83 W/(m
K)]. The metal is highly resistant to atmospheric corrosion and resists
most acids, although it is attacked by oxidizing acids, such as nitric.
Sulfide ores and oxide ores are its principal sources, and its principal

open cast mining of nickel ore














....Compared to many open pit operations, Hanna Nickel used small shovels and trucks. I believe these we 75 ton trucks and the shovels were not very large compared to the iron ore oerations and coal operatons I had the prvilage to be associated with. The ore content was about 1% nickel and there were truck mounted analysis labs that tested the ore content of what was being mined. If "higher" grade ore was found in a pocket it was mixed with lower grade ore to allow a consistant product to be sent to the smelting operation at the bottom of the hill. ... source

nickel applications

...Nickel is primarily sold for first use as refined metal (cathode, powder, briquet, etc.) or ferronickel. About 65% of the nickel consumed in the Western World is used to make austenitic stainless steel. Another 12% goes into superalloys (e.g., Inconel 600) or nonferrous alloys (e.g., cupronickel). Both families of alloys are widely used because of their corrosion resistance. The aerospace industry is a leading consumer of nickel-base superalloys. Turbine blades, discs and other critical parts of jet engines are fabricated from superalloys. Nickel-base superalloys are also used in land-based combustion turbines, such those found at electric power generation stations. The remaining 23% of consumption is divided between alloy steels,

environmental problems on the philipines
















...Location: Manicani Island, Guiuan, Eastern Samar, Philippines Manicani is a small island in the beautiful Municipality of Guiuan, Eastern Samar. Guiuan is a 3hr ride by land from the region's capital (Tacloban City), and approximately 30min ride by a bangka from Guiuan proper. The island is inhabited by more or less 100 families that primarily depends their livelihood on fishing and farming. The island is rich in its marine wealth with its prestine crystal clear waters, diverse species of sea grasses, corals, mangroves, and fishes. Now, this small island (approximately 12km in circumference) has been greatly abused because of its rich mineral deposit of nickel ore. The saga of mining in Manicani Island has caused much chaos to the inhabitants; in fact, two lives have been lost already, one was a child and the other an engineer....
