Japanese steel industry has been working on the national project "CO2 Ultimate Reduction System for Cool Earth 50 (COURSE50)” since 2008, which is one of national projects commissioned by NEDO. The goal of COURSE50 project is to mitigate CO2 emissions from steelworks by about 30% by (1) technology for reducing iron ore to iron in blast furnace using hydrogen such as hydrogen contained in coke oven gas and (2) technology for capturing CO2 contained in blast furnace gas using unused wasted heat in steelworks. Using the knowledge gained from the development of COURSE50 as a foothold, the Japan Iron and Steel Federation will take on the challenge to realize “zero-carbon steel”.
