Shougang Group and Rio Tinto have commissioned a large-scale carbon capture trial facility at Shougang’s Jingtang steel operations in China, capable of capturing up to 10,000 tonnes of CO2 annually from blast furnace gas. This facility is part of ongoing collaboration to develop technologies reducing emissions in steelmaking, including carbon capture utilising waste heat to lower costs and potential CO2 reuse in steel production.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Industrial, and 3 sources have reported it between 28 Sep 2026 and 2 Oct 2026.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Steelmakers using blast furnaces need to watch this as lower-cost carbon capture tech is now industrial-scale in China. You can target mills scaling decarbonisation and carbon reuse to open sales or R&D partnerships.
