dc.description.abstract
The steel industry faces significant challenges in its quest for decarbonization, driven by
the urgent need to meet EU climate targets reducing CO2 emissions by 80-95%.
Currently, steel production contributes approximately 7% of global CO2 emissions, with
the predominant BF-BOF route accounting for 72% of production. [1, 2]
Low-carbon alternatives such as the Scrap-EAF and DR-EAF routes require different
resources and energy inputs, presenting a significant challenge when integrating them
into already highly optimized steel plants. Sinter and coking plants - designed for
continuous production, with limited ability to scale down - which supply essential
resources and energy, must reduce their output if blast furnaces (BF) are replaced. This
shift disrupts the energy balance and operational efficiency of these plants.
Process simulation is invaluable for balancing complex, integrated processes and
assessing lower-carbon technologies in steel production. Different model fidelities
(black box, grey box, rigorous models) enable quick calculations of integrated
flowsheets and detailed investigations of process steps, such as the sinter strand, under
varying conditions. This highlights the importance of tailored simulations and achieve
sustainable iron and steel manufacturing.
