Carbon recycling system for blast furnaces could reduce steelmaking emissions by 90%, claims study
Most of the world’s steel is produced via blast furnaces which produce iron from iron ore and basic oxygen furnaces which turn that iron into steel. Researchers from the University of Birmingham have designed a novel adaptation for existing iron and steel furnaces that could reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the steelmaking industry by nearly 90%.
