Unavoidable CO2 Emissions From the EAF — A Solution for Net Zero

This paper analyzes the challenge for CO2 emissions mitigation from EAFs, which is pivotal in sustainable steel production. These emissions are unavoidable due to carbon content in raw materials needed for EAF operations. With global concerns and the race to carbon neutrality, finding innovative solutions is crucial. This solution revolves around a carbon capture application using process waste energy as the driving force. The solution tackles EAF CO2 primary fumes using an absorbent fit for the gas composition and the recovered thermal energy as a driving force. The captured CO2 can then be stored or reused for other industrial processes.
