【1】 Comparison of electric furnace with blast furnace in CO2 emissions
Our DC electric furnace with single stage pre-heater (SSP) has many environmental features. It uses recycled iron scrap as a raw material for effective steel resource utilization. It also produces 1/6th the CO2 emissions of a blast furnace to make steel.
【2】Annual Total CO2 Emissions
A change of fuel from heavy oil to eco-friendly natural gas and reviews of manufacturing processes are some ways in which we actively seek to conserve energy and resources in manufacturing to achieve a low-impact production system.
1. Efforts to save energy and resources (reduce CO2 emissions)
Promote energy and resource conservation and streamlining in business activities to reduce future CO2 emissions.
2. Efforts to reduce waste and recycle (and promote a recycling-oriented society)
Promote the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) for waste generated in business activities with the goal of zero emissions.
3. Environmental protection activities
Contribute to environmental protection in various ways as a business through our environmental agreement with Himeji City.
