Emirates Steel Arkan, a prominent steel producer based in Abu Dhabi, is forging ahead in its commitment to sustainability with a groundbreaking initiative aimed at reducing its carbon footprint. Recently, the company entered into a strategic memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Danieli, a global leader in engineering solutions, to explore innovative methods for carbon reduction.
At the heart of this initiative is the installation of an e-PGH (Electrical Pulse Gas Heater) at Emirates Steel Arkan's Direct Reduction Plant #1. This cutting-edge technology promises to revolutionize production processes by integrating renewable energy sources, thereby enhancing operational efficiency and sustainability.
