Technologies to reduce CO2 emissions
Hydrogen reduction of iron ore generates H2O instead of CO2, leading to decrease in CO2 emissions.
The steel industry in Japan has already achieved the world’s top-level energy efficiency by making persistent efforts for energy saving, through which contributing to CO2 reduction as one of the countermeasures for global warming. Technology development is the key to responding to requests for further reduction of CO2 on a global scale, and drastic steps by innovative technologies are deemed indispensable in the long term.
