With approximately 75% of steel production still relying on coal-fired blast furnaces, which emit substantial amounts of carbon dioxide, the sector accounts for a staggering 8% of global emissions. To meet global climate goals, steel emissions must be slashed by 50% by 2050 and continue to decline thereafter.

All steel plants worldwide have been moving forward with “Green steel”, which refers to steel manufacturing without the use of fossil fuels. 

This revolutionary approach aims to sudden reduce the carbon footprint of an industry that has long been considered hard to decarbonize.

     Both green hydrogen and EAF technologies are handling material with the sidewall conveyor belt. The stable quality and performance of sidewall conveyor belt plays the crucial role in the operation.
