Part load operation of natural gas fired power plant with CO2 capture system for selective exhaust gas recirculation

Yamina Qureshi et al.

Summary: This study investigates the base and part load operation of a natural gas combined cycle power plant integrated with a post-combustion CO2 capture plant and selective exhaust gas recirculation scheme. The results show that enhancing the CO2 concentration through selective exhaust gas recirculation improves the performance of the power plant, particularly at part load operation.

Low-carbon production of iron and steel: Technology options, economic assessment, and policy

Zhiyuan Fan et al.

Summary: With the urgency to transition to a net-zero CO2 economy, governments and industries are focusing on decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors like steel making. Current decarbonization technologies have limitations, and achieving deep decarbonization in the iron and steel industry will require a combination of factors including cost and technical maturity.

How material stocks sustain economic growth: Evidence from provincial steel use in China

Yi Ding et al.

Summary: The rapid economic development in emerging economies is deeply coupled with massive material use which poses serious challenges to the environment. The steel stock plays a vital role in economic growth in China, and its productivity reflects increases with economic development but might decline at a very developed stage. Industrialization and urbanization levels positively contribute to the output elasticity of steel stock while the existing stock level plays an opposite role.

Effect of strengthened standards on Chinese ironmaking and steelmaking emissions

Xin Bo et al.

Summary: The emissions concentrations at iron- and steelmaking plants in China have decreased since the implementation of stricter standards in 2015, with particulate matter and SO2 emissions significantly reduced and NOx emissions slightly increased despite an increase in production. If all facilities meet the ultralow emission standards, emissions of particulate matter, SO2, and NOx are expected to decrease further.
