Description

Hyundai Steel Waste Energy Recovery Co-generation Project The Hyundai Steel Waste Energy Recovery Co-generation Project is a 400MW cogeneration plant developed by Hyundai Green Power CO., Ltd. The project is situated at Hyundai Steel and utilizes surplus waste gasses including BFG (Blast Furnace Gas), COG (Coke Oven Gas), and LDG (Converter Gas) produced by Steel to generate electricity. Key Highlights: - The project reuses waste gasses created by Steel, reducing the amount of harmful emissions released into the atmosphere. - Approximately 2,741,035MWh electricity will be sent to a power grid, while 1,285,000 ton steam will be produced and sent to Steel. - The proposed project is a significant step towards sustainable energy production and contributes to the global effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Hyundai Steel Waste Energy Recovery Co-generation Project has a crucial role to play in the reduction of carbon emissions globally. Without this project, the waste gasses created by Steel would be emitted to the atmosphere after incineration, adding to the already high levels of carbon emissions. By reusing these waste gasses, the project generates electricity and steam, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels and the amount of harmful emissions released into the atmosphere. The project is a significant step towards sustainable energy production and plays a crucial role in the global effort to combat climate change.
