Strategies for Decarbonising Energy-Intensive Industries: The University of Adelaide's High Temperature Minerals Processing Forum
Key Ideas
  • The University of Adelaide hosts the High Temperature Minerals Processing Forum to address challenges in decarbonising energy-intensive industries like iron, steel, cement, and aluminium.
  • Experts from around the world gather to discuss latest developments in technologies, policies, and finance to transition high temperature industrial processes to net zero CO2 emissions.
  • The forum focuses on finding technology-driven solutions to facilitate the transition to a net zero future, minimize costs and risks, and enable companies to remain competitive.
  • Australia's potential in lower cost net zero energy sources, including hydrogen, can lead to the country transitioning from exporting ore to green value-added materials for global supply chains.
The University of Adelaide is hosting the annual High Temperature Minerals Processing Forum to tackle challenges in decarbonising energy-intensive industries. Chaired by Professor Gus Nathan, the forum aims to discuss strategies for transitioning high temperature industrial processes to net zero CO2 emissions. The forum will focus on technologies, policies, and finance to address barriers and identify enablers for decarbonisation. Australian companies are encouraged to seize emerging opportunities in the low-carbon transition. The integration of renewable energy sources with industrial processes and the development of technology-driven solutions are key themes. Experts will explore the role of hydrogen, carbon capture and reuse, storage, electrification, and net zero electricity in achieving emission reduction targets. Presenters like Professor Greg Metha and Professor Alfonso Chinnici will share research on hydrogen production, sustainable heat transfer, and renewable energy integration. The forum highlights Australia's potential to become a major player in producing green raw materials by leveraging locally-generated renewable energy. By transitioning from exporting ore to manufacturing green products, Australia can benefit from global supply chain opportunities and contribute to a sustainable future.
