Nickel is commonly utilized by the electroplating industry in processes utilizing stainless steel, cobalt or nickel alloys. Even though nickel is regarded as non-toxic to humans, concentrations found in wastewater exceeding 0.5 mg/L (ppm) can cause damage to certain plants and aquatic life. Nickel is also used in batteries, fuel cells and hydrogenation of vegetable oils in the food industry.
