Nonferrous metal (except aluminum) smelting and refining

Copper rolling / drawing / extruding and alloying

Emission intensity of steel - plate. worldsteel 2023 study. A flat steel sheet rolled on a hot rolling mill. It can be found on the market in sheets and is further processed into finished products by the manufacturers. Heavy plate is used in a large number of sectors: structural steels shipbuilding pipes pressure vessels boilers heavy metal structures offshore structures etc. Typical thickness between 2 to 20 mm. The maximum width is 1860 mm. System expansion was used on the steel e.g. for blast furnace slag and other co-products. The influence of system expansion to the GWP for steel products is 3 to 7% lower GWP.  Contact Worldsteel for more information. At an EOL recovery rate of 85%. Module D impact of -1.22 kg CO2e per kg ('-' magnitude is a benefit '+' magnitude a burden). This gives a net life cycle inc Mod D of 1.16 kg CO2e per kg. The source does not clarify if the kgCO2e value is calculated using the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) or IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) or IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) methodologies.
