Located at a steel mill in Dangjin Province, South Korea, this project addresses the challenge of energy efficiency: With the help of a newly constructed cogeneration power plant, the waste gas generated by the mill’s blast furnaces and coke ovens is reused to power production processes. In addition, the electricity and steam generated by the project help reduce the mill’s power consumption from the grid.
In the absence of this project, a large amount of combustible waste gas would be flared or even released directly into the atmosphere, polluting the air and further speeding up global warming.
