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

Green Car Congress

The CO 2 produced from the BF is used in the TC cycle to produce more CO, therefore creating a closed carbon loop, allowing for the decoupling of steel production from greenhouse gas emissions. The novel recycling system captures the CO 2 from the top gas and reduces it to CO using a perovskite crystalline mineral lattice.
