JSW Steel Joins Forces for Carbon Capture Innovation

JSW Steel has partnered with BHP and Carbon Clean to advance carbon capture technology in steelmaking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This collaboration aims to explore the feasibility of implementing Carbon Clean's CycloneCC technology, despite challenges such as cost and space limitations in existing facilities.

JSW Steel has announced a partnership with BHP and Carbon Clean, intending to advance carbon capture technology within the steel industry to curb emissions.

India's steel sector contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, with JSW Steel facing a higher emission intensity than the global average. The new pact seeks to address these issues.

The collaboration will assess the viability of Carbon Clean's CycloneCC modular technology to potentially capture up to 1 lakh tonnes of CO2 annually, despite the challenges of integrating new technology into existing sites.
