Be it steel, copper or aluminium – the metal industries boast the technologies needed to achieve the climate targets. The pathways to the decarbonisation of their respective companies, however, are as manifold as are the challenges faced by steel mills and foundries, aluminium and copper smelters, forging and rolling mills. An overview of the technological spectrum of metal industries with their varying transformation paths to climate neutrality and the breakthrough technologies by metallurgical plant builders will be provided by “The Bright World of Metals” in Düsseldorf from 12 – 16 June 2023. Like every four years, Messe Düsseldorf will present the metal industry champions with their future solutions at the world’s biggest metallurgy trade fairs – at the trade fair quartet GIFA, METEC, THERMPROCESS and NEWCAST. The metal industries maintain a key position for achieving the climate goals. The production of ferrous and non-ferrous metals accounts for some 8% of all greenhouse gases emitted globally. If the production of ores and other raw materials required for metal manufacturing are factored in, this figure amounts to around 10%.
