Abstract

The production of cement, steel, and chemicals; land, sea and air transportation; heating and cooling functions in homes and workplaces are energy-hungry and environmentally detrimental. As a new breakthrough, sustainable-renewable energy sources come to the fore in the energy context, while decarbonization takes the lead in the environmental context. Today, the question " Can carbon removal become a 1 trillion-dollar business?" is being asked in the industrial world. Obviously, a carbonless economy is difficult in heavy industry, especially in the steel sector. The main theme of this study is to discuss and examine the challenges of a decarbonized economy in heavy industry, especially in the steel sector.

Özet

Çimento, çelik ve kimyasalların üretimi; kara, deniz ve hava yolu ulaşımı; evlerde ve iş yerlerindeki ısıtma ve soğutma işlevleri enerji obur ve çevre oburdur. Yeni atılım olarak, enerji bağlamında sürdürülebilir-yenilenebilir enerji kaynakları öne çıkarken, çevre bağlamında karbonsuzlaştırma (dekarbonizasyon) başı çekmektedir. Bugün endüstri dünyasında, “Karbonsuzlaştırma 1 trilyon dolarlık bir iş kolu olur mu?” sorusu sorulmaya başlanmıştır. Ağır sanayi, özellikle çelik sektörü özelinde karbonsuz ekosistemin oluşturulmasındaki zorlukları tartışmak ve incelemek bu çalışmanın ana temasıdır.
