Scrap and electric-arc-furnace production

Produce steel using an electric-arc-furnace route with scrap and, where applicable, direct-reduced iron.

Start with site dataOpen the assessment tools
01

What the measure changes

Produce steel using an electric-arc-furnace route with scrap and, where applicable, direct-reduced iron.

02

Evidence required

Product grade, scrap supply and residuals, metallic yield, electricity, electrode and fuel use, production route and reporting factor.

Inzonex removable modular insulation on industrial equipment
Equipment heat loss

Measure exposed hot surfaces

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.

  • Design target: surface temperature at or below 45 °C, subject to the application and design review
  • Claimed heat-loss reduction: up to 96%, subject to the measured boundary and insulation specification
  • Removable construction for inspection and maintenance access
  • Calculation record available for the selected equipment and operating conditions

Do not add a calculated reduction to an emissions report until the reporting boundary, factor, implementation date and verification method have been approved.

03

Constraints and risks

Route comparisons must use equivalent products and include electricity and upstream metallic inputs.

04

Possible applications

Sector membership does not establish feasibility. Confirm the actual process duty.
