A pronounced incubation period is observed in the temperature interval tested. This period decreases as the reduction temperature increases. Thermogravimetric data of these oxides were fitted using the Avrami-Erofeyev kinetic model. The reduction of these oxides is controlled by a nucleation and growth mechanism of metallic nickel over the oxides structure. Rate kinetic constants were re-evaluated and the activation energy for the reduction of these oxides was re-calculated.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Reduction of Industrial Nickel Oxides with a Hydrogen Bearing Gas Between 523 and 673 K}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/106685/PDF/AMM-2018-2-31-Plascencia.pdf}, doi={10.24425/122404}, keywords={Nickel oxides reduction, hydrogen reduction, Avrami-Erofeyev kinetic model, nucleation and growth, activation energy}, }
