Green Steel World is a platform that promotes and advances technologies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the steel production process. Green Steel World is a global online magazine focused on establishing a global network of professionals involved in the production, distribution, and use of low carbon steels.
Green steel refers to steel produced using environmentally friendly and sustainable methods. This usually involves using renewable energy sources, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and minimising and recycling waste during the production process.
“We are very glad to sign this partnership agreement with SSAB,” says Christophe Gourlay, Alstom Chief Procurement Officer. “By supplying steel with low carbon emission footprint for our Traxx Shunter™ locomotive, SSAB will contribute in the delivery of Alstom’s sustainable procurement strategy, which includes the reduction of the carbon emissions of Purchased Goods & Services by 30% by 2030.”
By using SSAB Zero™ instead of traditional steel, Alstom will significantly reduce the embodied carbon footprint in the material of their new locomotive platform.
The Traxx Shunter™ platform is compatible with hydrogen, battery and catenary systems. The Traxx Shunter H™ hydrogen locomotive is an innovative shunting solution designed by Alstom, with funding from France Relance, France 2030 and NextGenerationEU, as part of the IPCEI Hy2Tech programme. It combines the latest hydrogen fuel cell and battery technologies to achieve zero direct carbon emissions.
Low-emission steel is steel that is produced using methods and technologies that result in lower emissions than traditional steel production. The steel industry is a major contributor to climate change, accounting for about 7% of human greenhouse gas emissions.
Steel production is a major contributor to global carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas emissions. To reduce these emissions, steel producers are exploring new technologies and strategies. Recycling scrap metal into new steel is less energy-intensive and emits fewer carbon emissions than primary production.
“We are proud to work with companies like Alstom that prioritize reducing fossil carbon emissions in their materials with a clear and ambitious target to decarbonize,” says Huy Nguyen, Sales Director for SSAB in Southern Europe. “At SSAB, we are committed to largely eliminating CO2 emissions from the steelmaking process and to create a fossil-free value chain with our customers and partners.”
Classification of stainless steel pipes1. Classification by production method:
(1) Seamless tubes - cold drawn tubes, extruded tubes, cold rolled tubes.
(2) Welded pipe:
(a) Classification by process - gas shielded welded pipe, arc welded pipe, resistance welded pipe (high frequency, low frequency).
(b) According to welding seam - straight seam welded pipe, spiral welded pipe.
2. Classification according to cross-sectional shape: (1) circular steel pipe; (2) rectangular pipe.
Spiral steel pipe stacking requirements1. The principle requirement for stacking spiral steel pipes is to stack them according to types and specifications on the premise of ensuring stable stacking and ensuring safety. Different types of materials should be stacked separately to prevent confusion and mutual erosion;
Difference Between Straight Seam Steel Pipe and Spiral Steel Pipe
Advantages of Using Carbon Steel in ConstructionSteel is an alloy metal, which means it’s a combination of several types of elements. In the case of steel, this is a combination of iron, carbon, and trace elements. It has a number of advantages for construction applications due to the fact that it’s fairly inexpensive to manufacture and has a very high tensile strength.
What determines the type of steel is the ratio of elements used to produce it, and it’s the magic formula of the carbon steel alloy created that makes it preferred for many projects. While there are thousands of different types of steel, these types are generally bucketed into four categories: carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and tool steel.- Anti-corrosion steel pipe classificationPN8710 anti-corrosion
When there are many types of corrosive media in steel pipes, such as acids, alkalis, salts, oxidants and water vapor, the coating must be chemically inert and resistant to acid, alkali and salt corrosion. The coating film should have a dense structure, good waterproof permeability and strong adhesion. , tough and plump. In this case, IPN8710 anti-corrosion is suitable. 
Global crude steel production fell 4.3% year-on-year in MarchOn April 23, the World Steel Association (WSA) released global crude steel production data for March. In March, crude steel output in the world's 71 countries and regions included in the statistics was 161.2 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 4.3%. In the first quarter of this year, crude steel output in the world's 71 countries and regions included in the statistics was 469 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 0.5%.
