Unlock the Digital and Sustainable Path of Green Steel Transformation
The Steel industry is at a tipping point where sustainability and greenhouse gas emissions are top items on CEOs’ agendas. The old philosophy of engineering and production for profit is giving way to engineering and production for sustainability. Steel producers are adapting their business models, changing their priorities, and shifting their strategies as a response to the shifting market conditions. We know that this involves a transformation towards new ways of production limiting emissions like the direct reduction, but also capturing the CO2 emissions and optimizing the whole production chain.
Dassault Systèmes provides a collaborative work environment (3DEXPERIENCE) and comprehensive set of solutions that focus on green steel to enable and help accelerate this transformation. Solutions range from design, engineering and industrial process simulation capabilities to environmental assessment tools to calculate the impact of a plant over the course of its lifecycle. It includes a set of solutions to operate facilities such as steel production planning & scheduling. It provides capabilities for certification of sustainable operations and logistics through tracking of all plant data in a single source of truth platform.
Find out how Dassault Systèmes and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform make it possible to manage all industrial projects for green steel in the same collaborative space, for all roles involved, from design to production.
