With the rapid expansion in BF-BOF steelmaking capacity in India, the adoption of energy efficient technologies in primary steel production will gather momentum in the coming years. Technologies such as utilisation of waste heat, efficient recycling of steel mill gases, increased use of pellets and prepared burden, the use of biochar and COG in the blast furnace and a higher share of scrap in the BOF are some of the best available technologies (BATs) essential for incremental decarbonisation in the short term.
