Carbon‐intensive sectors like steel or chemical industry need to reduce their emissions and their dependence on fossil feedstocks to help reaching climate goals. Coupling previously independent sectors by carbon capture and utilization and power‐to‐X technologies are promising concepts. Within the Carbon2Chem® project, a generic approach for the evaluation of various plant configurations with respect to future market and energy scenarios is presented. Economically and ecologically favorable concepts for the recycling of steel mill gases to valuable products, especially methanol, by integrating high amounts of renewable energies are identified for the year 2030.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
