Based on the forecast data from 2024 to 2028, the re-import of nickel waste or scrap to Canada shows a consistent upward trend. The values in thousands of US dollars indicate a steady increase from 509.88 in 2024 to 637.86 in 2028. The approximate annual growth rate appears to be around 6% year-on-year.

In 2023, assuming a value lower than that projected for 2024, the trend reflects a successful recovery and expansion in the nickel waste recycling sector. Specific values for 2023 aren't provided but the anticipated growth signals optimistic market conditions.

Future trends to watch for:

Global demand for nickel as it relates to the growth of industries such as battery production and stainless steel.
Environmental regulations impacting the recycling market.
Advancements in recycling technologies that could influence re-import values.
