EAF steelmaking is the key technology for decarbonised steelmaking, either in scrap-based plant by modification of existing processes for further decarbonisation, or as new EAF installations in decarbonised integrated steel works to (partly) replace the classical BF-BOF production.  Consequently, it was selected as main focus of GreenHeatEAF. Then project develops and demonstrates the most important decarbonisation approaches at EAFs including the use of hydrogen to replace natural gas combustion in existing or re-vamped burners or innovative technologies like CoJet.  The project includes the  Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the proposed scrap management and the assessment of economic viability by a Life Cycle Costing (LCC) analysis. TeCIP Institute of SSSA coordinates the  project and SUM Lab of Institute of Management is involved as LCA and LCC expert.
