ArcelorMittal investigates industrial use of hydrogen

To permanently reduce CO2 emissions, ArcelorMittal has developed a low-emissions technology strategy, which targets not only the use of alternative feedstocks and the conversion of CO2 emissions, but also the direct avoidance of carbon (Carbon Direct Avoidance, or CDA).

Stainless strips for auto mufflers

ThyssenKrupp Nirosta has developed a lightweight solution for auto manufacturers, reducing CO2 emissions using ThyssenKrupp Tailored Strips, which comprise strips of different thickness matched exactly to the stresses acting on the part.
