Abstract (en)

Provided is a method for controlling generation of scaling in a reaction vessel to reduce time and cost required for removal of the scaling in the process of producing nickel powder from a solution containing a nickel ammine sulfate complex. This is a method for producing nickel powder, including: adding, to the solution containing the nickel ammine sulfate complex, seed crystals in an amount of 0.3 times or more and 3 times or less the weight of nickel in the solution to form a slurry; and blowing hydrogen gas into the slurry to reduce a nickel complex ion and to thereby form a nickel precipitate.
