Estep 2024 Event aims at bringing together the European steel community to discuss two pillars of the Clean Steel Partnership towards C-lean processes: the hydrogen exploitation and the circular economy application. Achievements, challenges and future expectations will be analysed thanks to contributions from different European steelmaking actors and to the presentations of current CSP projects. The event will allow the steel sector to meet other industrial sectors involved in the European Green Deal which are active actors in industrial symbiosis (e.g. cement, water and aluminium)
The conference will focus on the following topics:
- Hydrogen based steelmaking
o Opportunity and limits
o Operating conditions challenges and optimization - Hydrogen heating technologies in downstream metal processes
- Hydrogen exploitation safety and permitting
- Renewable energy and hydrogen integration
- The new challenges for the circular economy due to the transition from traditional to C-lean production processes
- Industrial Symbiosis and sector coupling
- Residue management and valorization
- Circular economy regulations
- Digitalization, upskilling and social innovation
