Steel industry characteristics:
�Global overcapacity since 2006/7
�Steel is most recycled material (“circular economy proof”)
�Extremely capital intensive
�Cyclic financial performance
�Growth opportunities (green field) not in Europe
�Non levelled playing field (e.g. CO2 pricing, imports etc.)
Just imagine : you have an invention that can change the rules of the game !!!

Steel: the ultimate sustainable material
� Never consumed – once made, it is used again and again without loss of quality or strength
� The most recycled material in the world
� Long-term investment that does not go to waste
� Efficient – light yet strong
Steel enables sustainability
The only truly cradle-to-cradle recycled material

Business case depends on “local” conditions
We have to understand “entire” impact on this highly symbiotic system in order to answer the simple question:
“where and when are you planning to implement”
� Slightly different composition slag
� Offset of gas balances
� Site energy balance (e.g. O2 need changes)
� Scrap logistics to be redesigned
� Less ore and coal preparations will affect site performance
� Liquid metal treatment (S, P etc.)
� And many more………..

Summary
� European steel sector is facing huge challenges to maintain a sustainable business
� Tata Steel is among the best in the world with respect to re-use of materials and energy efficiency: optimised integrated site
� But: Conventional technology still depends on iron ore and coal
� Tata Steel is actively working on HIsarna breakthrough technology which offers a unique opportunity, with respect to:
� CO2 emission reduction
� Raw materials flexibility
� Environmental footprint
� Zero waste scenarios
� Circular economy and Industrial symbiosis
� In order to be successful Tata needs:
� Support to get access to risk bearing capital (e.g. EIB) and European funding
� A consistent Industry policy addressing longer term needs of the manufacturing industry
� Legislation and industry policy that supports circular economy
� A levelled global playing field

Challenge for the coming decade
� Energy transition
� Can we replace carbon with hydrogen or electrons?
� Raw material transition
� Steel life cycle impact
� Closer interaction with customers
� Use of scrap as the future raw material
� Upcycling instead of downcycling
� How can we integrate other industries in our processing chain? Industrial symbiosis is an opportunity but also a risk
