Successful carbon capture trial at ArcelorMittal Gent shows potential to significantly reduce CO2 intensity in steel production
Belgium, Oct. 28 -- A carbon capture trial by ArcelorMittal, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), BHP and Mitsubishi Development Pty Ltd (MDP) has successfully captured carbon dioxide (CO?) from blast furnace gas by applying MHI's Advanced KM CDR Process (TM) at ArcelorMittal's integrated steelmaking site in Gent, Belgium, concluding the first phase of the trial (phase 1).The trial demonstrated CO? capture, at pilot scale, at rates exceeding 90 per cent and provided the operational and engineering data to support the assessment of the potential for future full-scale application of the carbon capture technology at the Gent blast furnace.The assessments based on the trial results indicate that applying this technology at full scale to the...
