CCUS

Carbon capture and utilization

Technology to capture CO2 from the gases generated during industrial processes and to convert them into fuels or chemical products

Industry

Bio-based raw materials/products manufacturing technology

Technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by converting petroleum-based basic/applied raw materials and plastics into biomass-derived basic/applied raw materials and plastics

Industry

Low-carbon production of iron and steel

Technology to lower CO2 emissions by reducing carbon use necessary for reduction in the blast furnace and by increasing the use of scrap in the converter instead of molten iron.
