MAN0204 – Understand electrolysis in ironmaking – Fact sheets

Description

Estimated time: 0.17 hours / 10 mins.

Language: English

Modality: Virtual

Course Summary

The transition to a low-carbon world requires a transformation in the way we manufacture iron and steel.

There is no single solution to CO2 -free steelmaking, and a broad portfolio of technological options is required, to be deployed alone, or in combination as local circumstances permit. This series of fact sheets describes and explores the status of a number of key technologies.
