The " Forward-Looking Technology and Industry-Academia Collaboration Project – Development of Low Carbon Emission Technologies for Blast Furnace Ironmaking Process " proposed by CSC and National Cheng Kung University was approved by the National Science and Technology Council in November 2022. The project will be implemented over a three-year period from November 2022 to October 2025. CSC combined R&D capabilities of industry and academia to develop next generation low carbon iron making technologies suitable for Taiwan. After analyzing benchmark national programs and public information disclosed by major companies worldwide, we planned a roadmap of short-term, mid-term, and long-term developments for low carbon iron making technology for blast furnace, which is simultaneously carried out with other research topics, including: (1) charging low carbon iron-bearing materials ; (2) hydrogen-rich gas injection; (3) top gas refined by the removal of CO2. The technologies are applied in the blast furnace production site of CSC and further reduce carbon emissions. Benefits from low carbon iron making technologies directly spill over to domestic industries that use steel, reducing the carbon footprint of domestic steel products. CSC hopes to thus enter the green supply chains of industries around the world, enhance the overall competitiveness of Taiwan's exports, and gain bargaining chips for political and economic negotiations. Furthermore, Taiwan had a relatively late start in low carbon iron making technology, and domestic talent and professors in the field of high temperature iron making are aging and retiring. As we face the crisis of a gap in high temperature iron making talent, we hope that this project will cultivate 20 Ph.D.-level talent in next generation high temperature iron making technology. This project will be implemented over a 3-year period with a total budget of 470 million TWD, which will be executed for projects each year. CSC will provide approximately 40 million TWD in subsidies to companies in the first year, and also plans to invest approximately 54 million in R&D of related topics, which will be jointly executed by the Iron & Steel Research & Development Department and Green Energy & System Integration Research & Development Department.
