Abstract
As a basic raw material industry, metallurgical industry is crucial for national economy and defense construction. Its development level reflects the industrialization process of a country. The metallurgical industry currently faces multiple constraints in terms of resource, energy, and environment. To address these constraints, green metallurgy is the only way and can create a sustainable development mode for future development of the metallurgical industry in China. Considering the background of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, domestic and international dual circulation, as well as supply-side structural reforms, we analyze the current status and development trend of steel and nonferrous metals in China and abroad, and review the development status of metallurgical technologies. Moreover, we examine the innovative development of green metallurgy from the perspective of resource, energy, and environment, and summarize several major problems. Based on the prediction and potential analysis, we present the major strategic demand for green metallurgy and propose the following countermeasures: enhancing the strategic position of the metallurgical industry, developing disruptive technologies for waste-free metallurgy, deploying major innovation projects regarding resource and energy substitution as well as control of environmental pollution and carbon emission, implementing green metallurgy policy and standards, and creating an innovative talent training system and science popularization platforms.
