Life Cycle Assessment of a steelworks

Abstract

The purpose of this work is that of carrying out an accurate and extensive environmental analysis of the steel production in the Taranto district, in order to highlight its main hot spots. The development for such an analysisis based on a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of steel production. The analysis has the specific objective of identifying the use of material and energy together with the quantities and qualities of the emissions during all the lifecycle phases. The LCA has a cradle to LD-converter gate approach that covers the stages from raw material extraction to solid steel production. The results give an indication of the most burdening phases of the steelmaking process, in terms of impact categories and energy consumption, and at the same time they represent an information basin that can be used for the identification of possible improvements needed to progress the sustainability of the steelworks and its surrounding productive district
