Global warming poses an existential threat to humanity, and nations worldwide are taking decisive steps to curb pollution and transition to clean, green energy sources. The steel industry, one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gases, is actively reducing emissions through innovative solutions like hydrogen-based iron ore reduction, coal gasification, and waste recycling.
The refractory industry, as a key segment in steelmaking, is also embracing the global trend of reducing, reusing, and recycling. With changes in steelmaking processes, understanding their impact on refractory linings is crucial.
