High-temperature solar thermochemistry for CO2 mitigation in the extractive metallurgical industry

  • Steinfeld, Aldo

Abstract

The production of metals and synthesis gas are major consumers of high-temperature process heat and are responsible for about 10% of the total global anthropogenic CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. These emissions can be substantially reduced by combining the reduction of metal oxides with the reforming of natural gas and by replacing fossil fuels with solar energy as the source of process heat.
