Abstract

In order to minimize CO₂ emission from iron and steel-making processes to abate greenhouse gas impact, the considerations and some new technology completed and on going in Chinese steel industry are summarized. Two available ways for the minimizing in China so far: (1) Minimizing carbon-consumption (fossil energy-saving) in all the processes of steel industry which is the most realizable and practice measure for reducing CO₂ emission. (2) To look for new alternative reaction medium like H₂ in steel making processes where producing less CO₂. Some new ideas like macro-based measures are put forward for minimizing CO₂ emission in Chinese steel industry.
