Project Everest

30-50%

reduction of CO2 from steel-making site

Highlights

Selection of CO2 separation technology
CO2 compressor driver study
Equipment selection
Sizing and plot space

The goal of this project was to reduce 405 million metric tons of CO2 – a 30-50 percent reduction from the steel making site. During the pre-FEED phase, a thorough evaluation and selection of CO2 separation technology and a detailed study on the CO2 compressor driver were conducted. Equipment selection, sizing and plot space planning were integral components of this project.

Project Heracless

> 95%

decarbonization with full electrification

Application of world-class

sized heat pumps

Highlights

Consultancy services as part of an integrated project management team
Focused on the implementation of Direct Reduced Iron Plant (DRI) and Reducing Electrical Furnace (REF) technology at the facility
Part of hydrogen-based steel production plan
Electrical drivers on all rotating equipment

DRI is a relatively new production technology, in which iron ores are directly reduced using natural gas or hydrogen, rather than coal. The reduced iron is then processed into hot metal in an electric furnace (REF). One major advantage of the technology is that by using green electricity and a predominant hydrogen stream, the CO2 emissions from the process are much lower than when using blast furnaces.
