Novel adaptation for existing blast furnaces could reduce steelmaking emissions by 88%; closed-loop carbon recycling

Green Car Congress

Researchers from the University of Birmingham have designed a novel adaptation for existing blast furnaces that could reduce CO 2 emissions from the steelmaking industry by nearly 90%. billion in 5 years while reducing overall UK emissions by 2.9%. If implemented in the UK alone, the system could deliver cost savings of £1.28
