U.S. Steel and a Texas company recently announced an innovative project to cut up to 50,000 tons a year of planet-warming carbon dioxide from U.S. Steel’s Gary Works plant.

Construction vehicles park at the site of the construction of a new pig iron caster at U.S. Steel Gary Works on Thursday, May 26, 2022. The mill is taking part in a carbon capture project slated to be up and running by 2026.

CarbonFree Chemical Holdings, of San Antonio, plans to install its SkyCycle technology at Gary Works to capture carbon dioxide from the steel company’s blast furnaces, which turn iron ore into iron. “We want to know more about it,” said Dorreen Carey, president of Gary Advocates for Responsible Development. “What is their plan? We’d love to hear them make a presentation on what they’re going to do.”

A 50,000-ton reduction in carbon dioxide emissions with SkyCycle would be about one-half of 1% of the total.
