Application fields of nickel based alloys

Nickel based alloys are used in many fields, such as:
1. Ocean: marine structures in the marine environment, desalination, aquaculture, and heat exchange of seawater.
2. Environmental protection field: flue gas desulfurization devices for thermal power generation, wastewater treatment, etc.
3. Energy sector: Atomic power generation, comprehensive utilization of coal, tidal power generation, etc.
4. Petrochemical industry: refining, chemical equipment, etc.
5. Food industry: salt production, soy sauce brewing, etc. Among the many fields mentioned above, ordinary stainless steel 304 is not competent. In these special fields, special stainless steel is indispensable and irreplaceable. In recent years, with the rapid development of the economy and the continuous improvement of the industrial level, more and more projects require higher grade stainless steel. With the increasing demand for nickel based alloys in various industries. In 2011, the market size of nickel based alloys in China reached 23.07 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth rate of 19.47%. Therefore, the development level of the industry is steadily increasing.
