Energy intensity and greenhouse gases footprint of metallurgical processes: A continuous steelmaking case study
Abstract
The demand on primary energy resources of three steelmaking technologies has been evaluated using an integrated energy analysis approach that takes into account the energy equivalent of major materials and supplies used in the process, as well as the inefficiency of electricity generation. Two new parameters, Material CO2 Footprint (MCF) and Process CO2 Footprint (PCF), are defined to provide unified measures for carbon footprint of the treated …
