Decarbonization of Industrial Sector Industry covers around 25% of the economic sector in terms of global Gross Domestic Industry covers around 25% of the economic sector in terms of global Gross Domestic Product (GDP) [7] and produced 7.8 Gt of CO2 in 2017 [8].

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states that direct and indirect (i.e., derived from energy use) on Climate Change (IPCC) states that direct and indirect (i.e., derived from energy use) emissions have to drop by 75–90% by 2050 [1].

Therefore, the to be 1.85 tonnes of CO2 per tonnes of crude steel cast in 2018 [11], and, for the same year, iron and steel industry is one of the biggest emitters in industrial sectors, producing 3.3 Gt of CO2 in 2018. Most iron and steel mills are made up of a Blast Furnace (BF) coupled with a Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF), and they are supplied with iron ore as the raw material and coke as the reducing agent.
