Research Progress on CO2 Capture in the Steel Industry Under the Dual Carbon Background by Jing WEI, Min DENG, Dengguo YIN, Long SHI, Zikang QIN, Junfeng ZHENG, Lu YAO, Wenju JIANG, Lin YANG, Zhongde DAI

“…However, the global average cost of CO2 capture remains high. Current challenges include: (1) increased energy consumption (2.5 − 4.0 GJ per ton of steel); (2) infrastructure limitations, as 80% of steel plants lack CO2 pipeline networks; and (3) insufficient carbon pricing coverage, accounting for only 30% − 40% of the capture costs. …”
