5 Preface Recently, many improvements have been made in ironmaking processes. Additionally, legislative regulations have been modified. As a result, an updated approach to, and description of, the new problems is not present in the literature as a scientific book. Recent technological and metallurgical improvements due to the new regulations and the provisional future regulations need a key point in the scientific literature. Our book offers a complete panorama of industrial steelmaking problems, leading to partial or total solutions of high-quality products with low greenhouse emissions impact. The aim of the book is to provide readers with an in-depth knowledge of specific topics within the field of steelmaking with a focus on greenhouse emissions control and reduction. The chapters are written by acknowledged specialists in their fields. Beginners and experts will both find in the book a useful instrument and resource for topics relating to steel-production-product quality and plant efficiency-greenhouse emissions abatement. The book describes the main phases of steel production, from raw materials to refining, through the discussion of the control, operations, and instrumentation, always relating to the effect on the emissions and pollutants. The book gives also a broad panorama of the different legal regulations all around the world, coupled with the different technological solutions, thanks to the contribution of scientists from 18 different countries. The book is divided into four main parts reflecting the following broad areas of steelmaking: Sintering plants operations, from raw material handling to the big plants productivity to the most innovative technologies available for hazardous emissions control and reduction Blast furnace operations, from CO 2 mitigation to recent technologies finalized to the furnaces efficiency to the numerical modelling of blast furnaces operations Electric arc steelmaking, from the emissions control to the most recent technologies available for carbon and special steel Greenhouse emissions, from the energy consumption to the radically innovative technology to the future trends of steelmaking v

6 vi Preface Due to the importance of the topic, it is believed that the book will be revised in the future reflecting changes in technologies and legal regulations and standards. My special acknowledgments to the passion and cooperation of all the authors and reviewers who made possible the realization of the book and the reduction of the publication time with their hard work and prompt responses. My special thanks to the professionalism of the editorial office assistants. Finally, I would like to dedicate the work to my parents and to my children, Paolo and Alessandro.
