Preface

The global steel manufacturing center moved from UK to the United States at the beginning of the last century, to Japan and South Korea in the 1960s and 1970s, then to China at the beginning of this century. R&D of steel technology followed a similar path, and many steel enterprises in China have provided sufficient spaces for its progress. Following the economic restructuring of China, energy conservation and low-carbon economy have become the key points of the transformation and development of China's steel industry, promoting common technology R&D of the energy conservation and emission reduction in China’s iron and steel industry. In the past decade, China has developed a number of internationally leading common technologies for low-carbon and energy-efficient steel. With the green manufacturing as the research background, the low carbon and high energy efficiency as the technological goal, and the energy conservation and low carbon common technology problems in the steel industry as the research objects, this book shares the progress and achievements made in R&D, engineering and commercialization by individuals, teams and a group of like-minded people in China's iron and steel industry from their respective positions through theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, scientific experiments, engineering applications and commercial promotion.
