Chinese nickel pig iron production has been expanding rapidly since 2006, with production equipments and technology continuously updated and the products gained acceptance by users. The application area of nickel pig iron in stainless steel production has been expanding, which attracts more and more new producers into the industry and also causes fluctuation of market prices. However, problems regarding overcapacity, quality standard, pollution supervision etc gradually revealed, and it is worried that they might restrict the development of ferronickel industry.
