| Abstract | Climate change and environmental degradation are nowadays the key challenges of the industries in Europe (according to the European Green Deal). The primary goal is to achieve a climate-neutral in Europe by 2050. Technologies with carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions should be completely stopped in the future. The iron and steel industry is among the manufacturing industries with high CO2 emissions in Europe. In Poland, steel mills produce about 9 million tonnes of steel per year (average for 2000-2021). Steel mills in Poland use two steel production technologies, EAF and BOF. The first technology is highly energy intensive, and the second has high emissions of CO2. There will be no BF technology in zero-emission smelters; this technology will be replaced by DRI (i.e., direct iron reduction) installations, and electric furnaces will be powered by renewable energy. The paper consists of two parts: a theoretical section and a practical section. In the first section, the way the steel industry moves towards climate neutrality was presented. The part of the paper was realized based on European documents and a literature review. The second part was an analysis of the CO2 emission in the steel industry in Poland. The analysis was realized based on data from the Polish Steel Association. |
