The long dance of Arcelor and the government over the corpse of Ilva. And over the workers.
The only viable alternative to save the factory is to bring Vulcan Green Steel to Taranto. But it's a race against time because the Franco-Indian giant is working on shutting down the plants.
Companies increasingly "involved" in decarbonisation
"RIMINI – A path that is still long and full of unknowns. But it is becoming increasingly popular within companies, involving all divisions. It is the path towards zero emissions in the national and European steel industry, which was the topic discussed in the round table, moderated by Francesca Morandi, siderweb content manager, who animated the
conference «Steel: ecological transition between raw materials, market and CBAM» organized today by siderweb in collaboration with Consorzio Ricrea Acciaio."

A Steel Hope for the Future
An Italian company is about to open the first furnace to produce metal without using coal and without releasing carbon dioxide. Perhaps the first step in a revolution in one of the most polluting supply chains.

Former Ilva, incoming commissioner: a decree to eliminate ArcelorMittal
"Last call for Ilva"
"Many steel mills, from Acciaieria Arvedi S.p.A. to Marcegaglia which, not having the debt situation of Adi at all clear, are no longer focusing on an investment in Taranto. Rather they are cannibalizing Adi's market shares ex Ilva. They aim to become producers of primary steel themselves, investing in the latest generation electric furnaces, capable of producing steel starting from biocarbon, a material generated from end-of-life wood and sludge, that reacts with the mineral iron in an electric pre-reducer furnace, and produces primary steel with low environmental impact.
The technology is owned by I-Smelt (https://www.ismelt.it/), a company owned by Carlo Mapelli, professor of Materials Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano, previously on the board of directors of the former Ilva, whose role was to bring green technology to Taranto.
A first example of an active I-Smelt electric oven is in Sovere's (BG) steelworks, and Marcegaglia, Zanardi Fonderie S.p.A., Acciaierie Venete spa, Acciaieria Arvedi S.p.A., Feralpi Group, but also Ferriera Valsabbia Spa and Tamburi were present. Soon it will be the turn of three American multinationals. All interested in the project to create zero-impact plants by the first half of 2024."

Elsafra II and the Politecnico di Milano, an epochal turning point in the production of hydrogen: goal achieved.
Goal reached
Carlo Mapelli returns from Boston where he was called by the Boston Metal for technical and scientific advice
"Technology and sustainability; the construction industry rediscovers the wood supply chain.
Not only are wooden buildings less harmful to the environment, they can even generate a positive impact."
less emissions, now more training and research
Sustainable steel and hydrogen, Elsafra II aims with two startups on the Nasdaq
Through a strategic collaboration with the Politecnico di Milano and under the scientific direction of Prof.Ing. Carlo Mapelli, the financial holding Elsafra II S.p.A. is at the forefront in the selection of innovative projects. These are developed, patented, and subsequently integrated into special purpose companies. The latter, unique in their kind, represent a "turning point" both in the steel and metallurgical industry and in the production of hydrogen.
Falck's one-two with Carlo Mapelli in hydrogen and steel
Enrico Falck joins the company born from a project by Carlo Mapelli, professor of Politecnico di Milano, to produce green hydrogen with a technology different from the most widespread ones. The company is called I-H2 and Falk, president of the historic family group, took over 2% of it through the Larry family office, alongside other investors. I-H2 has finished testing and is creating the first production module at the Agrimeccanica of Crema. The technology is based on the breakdown of methane and, in addition to producing hydrogen at lower costs than electrolysis systems, it obtains crystalline graphite as a resulting material, which can be used as a raw material. Falck's Larry also took over 1% of I-Smelt, another company born from Mapelli's ideas, which aims to produce pre-reduced products to fuel green steelworks.

Green Economy
We have reached an agreement that will allow us to satisfy our internal market, allowing the formation of the Italian supply chain thanks to our institutional relations at the highest levels with the Senegalese government. Our extremely important objectives are: to follow the path of the green economy through logics of international cooperation in a country undergoing enormous development, yet conditioned in equal measure by emissions, and to start an international production process.
