Primary emissions in covered arc furnaces consist almost entirely of CO, due to the strong reducing environment. South Africa has the potential to produce more than 400,000 tonnes of ethanol per year from existing ferroalloy and titania producers. This CO is either utilized for energy production in boilers, or it is flared.
