How much do we spend to save? Calculating the embodied carbon costs of retrofit The drive to reduce carbon emissions from domestic housing has led to a recent shift of focus from new-‐build to retrofit. However there are two significant differences. Firstly more work is needed to retrofit ex...
The appearance of stainless steel is much glossier, giving off a smooth, bright silver look. Carbon steel, on the other hand, is much duller and mostly black, so stainless steel wins the battle versus carbon steel when it comes to aesthetic appearance. The analysis of stainless steel vs carb...
Steel decarbonisation: How will Green Steel be priced?17 July 2024 8AM Europe/London webcast Find Out More About CRU's Services CRU's unique services are the product of both our in-depth understanding of the markets and close contact with our customers. We want to hear from you...
Australia has vast reserves of magnetite ore, which previously hasn�t been in as much demand. But these ore bodies will become valuable under the right economic conditions. And while we can solve steel�s carbon problem with much better recycling of this valuable material, we�ll still n...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique which enables stable formation of ingot of high-carbon steel, with uniformity of components and without troubles related to refining or tapping of molten steel, by charging a ferro-alloy effectively in forming ingot of high-carbon steel by charging a...
Motivated by this conflict, we study here two key questions that need to be answered before implementing hydrogen as a reductant at the industrial scale for green steel production: (1) How much hydrogen is in green steel? (2) Will green steel suffer from severe hydrogen embrittlement? To ...
though it is stronger and stiffer than steel, it is significantly lighter in weight than steel. These qualities make carbon fiber the most preferred element in many industries for the manufacturing of its products. Now, let’s take a look at the classification and raw materials of carbon fiber...
But sooner or later, we’ll have to close this chapter. Industrial emissions account for almost 25% of global GHG emissions, with much of this contribution supplied by smelting in the iron and steel industries (7%) as well as getting those high temperatures for reactions...
quality is poor. Therefore, manual flame cutting is often used as an auxiliary cutting method. However, due to the improvement of flame cutting technology, some factories have adopted multi-head flame cutting machine automatic cutting as the main method for cutting fluid carbon steel seamlesstubes....
’s also important to recognize that mass timber takes much less energy (and fewer carbon emissions) thanconcrete and steelto process into workable form. Concrete alone is responsible for 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and 2 tons of carbon dioxide are emitted to make 1 ton of steel....
