12/20/2023 - ArcelorMittal Belgium has commissioned a facility that converts waste wood into bio-coal for use in its Gent blast furnace, the company has announced.
The first batch of bio-coal from the Torero plant was charged into the furnace on 18 December, ArcelorMittal said, with a successful outcome.
