Rio Tinto has commissioned a carbon capture trial facility at Shougang Group's steel plant in China to capture carbon dioxide from blast furnace gas, aiming to reduce emissions in steelmaking as part of a 2022 collaboration agreement.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech, and 3 sources have reported it between 28 Sep 2026 and 5 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Steel founders working on emissions reduction can now position carbon capture as a deliverable rather than a concept. The trial at Shougang signals an opening to commercialize carbon capture tech for blast furnace emissions immediately.
