The ever-increasing role of electric steelmaking is leading electric steelworks to evaluate solutions to enhance their sustainability and energy efficiency. Some benefits could be obtained through process integration solutions and are explored in the contribution through simulation investigations. The possibility of maximizing symbiosis between steelworks units and hydrogen production units is analyzed to facilitate hydrogen availability and exploitation. Off-gases waste heat recovery is explored to obtain related energy and economic benefits. Process integration of biomass upgrading units in steelworks are also investigated to enable the use of several biomass qualities.

Abstract
The ever-increasing role of electric steelmaking is leading electric steelworks to evaluate solutions to enhance their sustainability and energy efficiency. Some benefits could be obtained through process integration solutions and are explored in the contribution through simulation investigations. The possibility of maximizing symbiosis between steelworks units and hydrogen production units is analyzed to facilitate hydrogen availability and exploitation. Off-gases waste heat recovery is explored to obtain related energy and economic benefits. Process integration of biomass upgrading units in steelworks are also investigated to enable the use of several biomass qualities.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
