    Research and analyze actual conditions of Eastern-Asian steelindustry in the field of energy conservation and environment

     protection by referring to the Japanese countermeasures and to

    specify effective energy saving and CO2 emission reduction

    measures for each country. And build up the global database of

    the Eastern-Asian steel mills, and execute trial calculation of the potential CO2 emission reduction volume.

    Target countries

    Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Brunei Darussalam,

    Vietnam, Laos PDR, Myanmar, Cambodia, China, India, Republic of Korea,

    Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

    CO2 Data Collection System

    (Worldsteel)

    Worldsteel has issued the

    method as a guideline . And

    actual data collection among

    worldsteel members based

    upon the guide started in

    2007.

    This standard stipulates the method of comparing and evaluating thequantity and emission factor of CO2 emissions by the entire steel

    production process. This means that regardless of the equipment

    configuration of each steel plant, it is possible to compare and evaluate

    CO2 emissions of steel production processes worldwide by the same

    method

     Standardization of Steel Data Collection

    In many ERIA countries, energy consumption and CO2

    emission data are not collected nor statistically analyzed.

    Japan Environmental Issues

    26

    Followings are the proposals for environmental issues.

    1. Stimulate more concerns on environment. Managers should appoint a person to treat environmental

    issues. Education for environmental protection is

    recommended.

    2. Environment friendly operation and maintenance of

    environment protection facilities are recommended.  Adopt low dust emission operation and plan periodical

    maintenance of filters.

    3. Make laws for utilization of steel by-products.

      Make plans for effective use of slug.

    4. Environmental protection regulations should be technicallyand economically adoptable.

      If not adoptable, they may hinder economic growth.

    Prevalence of the Results

    The report has been translated into English, and it will be open to public.

    The report will be sent to Iron and Steel Institute of ERIA countries, steel

    companies who have accepted our visit and all the representatives of ERIA

    countries.

    Acknowledgements

    We would like to thank SEAISI and Iron and Steel Institutes of ERIA

    countries for providing us valuable information. We also would like to thank

    some steel companies for accepting our site visit and giving us operation data.

    The advices and suggestions from the members of ERIA Project Advisory

    Board which is organized in Japan are highly appreciated and were helpful for preparing our final report.
