In blast furnace (BF) steelmaking, each charge of the basic oxygen furnace, in which carbon carbon-rich pig iron is refined into crude steel, typically contains 15%-25% scrap. Scrap acts as a cooling agent, absorbing excess heat from the exothermic decarbonisation process, and also as a source of iron units.

2025年2月5日 · Using recycled steel scrap instead of raw materials cuts carbon emissions by approximately 78% per ton and requires 75% less energy. This process conserves natural resources, minimizes the need for energy-intensive mining and processing of virgin materials, and supports the transition to electric arc furnace (EAF) production, which is less ...
