Steel - Cold Rolled Coil

Emission intensity of steel - Cold Rolled Coil. Obtained by a further thickness reduction of a pickled hot rolled coil. This step is achieved at low temperature in a cold-reduction mill. It can be found on the market in coil but requires a further heating process before being manufactured into finished products. The various types of cold rolled steel are used as primary material for finished cold rolled coils & coated coils. Typical thickness between 0.15 - 3 mm. Typical width between 600 - 2100 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.

This gives a net life cycle inc Mod D of 1.26 kg CO2e per kg. The source does not clarify if the kgCO2e value is calculated using either IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) or IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) methodologies.
