Introduction of Korea’s first eco-arc electric furnace that maximizes energy efficiency and reduces greenhouse gas emissions
-
Energy saving through continuous charging and preheating of steel scrap
(↓30% power usage) - Realized minimization of external emission combustion gas by application of post-combustion and combustion tower burner
Introduction of the hot charge production method that increases energy efficiency by operating the heating furnace flexibly
- Introduced hot direct rolling (HDR) at steel mill in Incheon (Rolling Mill 1) in September 2012
- 80% increase in fuel intensity and 35,000 tCO₂eq reduction in greenhouse gas emissions per year after applying HDR
Installation of solar power facilities
- Pollutants/Greenhouse gas emission “Zero” facility
- Expected to install 12.5 MW solar power in Dangjin Plant on in March 2021.
- Pollutants/Greenhouse gas emission “Zero” facility
Installation of air pollution prevention facilities to improve air quality
- Operation of 4 SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) & 13 Bag filter-Dust collector
- Operation of 11 TMS(Tele-Monitoring System) for real-time monitoring of air pollutant emission
