Theoretical Minimum Energies To Produce Steel for Selected Conditions

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1216249· OSTI ID:1216249
An ITP study has determined the theoretical minimum energy requirements for producing steel from ore, scrap, and direct reduced iron. Dr. Richard Fruehan's report, Theoretical Minimum Energies to Produce Steel for Selected Conditions, provides insight into the potential energy savings (and associated reductions in carbon dioxide emissions) for ironmaking, steelmaking, and rolling processes (PDF 459 KB).
