Set the boundary first. Collect site evidence before selecting a measure or reporting a result.
Separate ironmaking, steelmaking, casting, reheating, utilities and purchased energy. Keep process-route changes separate from utility measures.
Metallic inputs, coke and injected fuels, process gases, electricity, oxygen, steam, production by product, operating hours and route-specific emission factors.
Use measured surface area, temperature and operating hours to calculate heat loss from boilers, kilns, heat exchangers, valves and pipework. Inzonex supplies removable modular insulation for equipment that requires maintenance access.
Do not add a calculated reduction to an emissions report until the reporting boundary, factor, implementation date and verification method have been approved.
Compare measures on an equivalent steel-product boundary. Record interactions between gas recovery, fuel use, electricity and downstream heat demand.
Review hot-blast, steam, boiler-house and reheating services where access, temperature and maintenance requirements can be measured.
