    Product Profile: Dry De-SOx/De-NOx System Dry De-SOx De-NOx System 1 Overview The Dry De-SOx/De-NOx System (DDDS) uses activated coke to remove environmental pollutants from the flue gases emitted from industrial equipment such as sintering machines, electricity generation boilers, waste incinerators, and cement kilns. Sumitomo Heavy Industries (SHI) began research and development of the technology as an environmentally friendly form of flue gas treatment in the 1960s, and it has since become established in practical use. The first system for a sintering machine was supplied to Nagoya Figure 1 Overview of DDDS process Steel Works of Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal in 1987, activity of the activated coke causes NOx to break down with a further 10 systems having since been supplied in into water (H2O) and nitrogen (N2).

The rate of growth however was quite irregular: strong until 2011, substantially flat in the following 4 years (averaging +0.5%) and from 2016 rising again. Between 2016 and 2019, growth in global LNG trade averaged a very healthy +9% y-o-y, reaching almost 350 mln tonnes a year in 2018. Such an irregular development is mostly due to the complexity of liquefying the natural gas before loading it on ships and the regasification process to make LNG available for consumption. Rather than pure supply and demand of natural gas, the real bottlenecks so far have been mostly at the infrastructure level, at the beginning and at the end of the voyage by sea. In particular the major constrain of the last 10 years was that liquefaction capacity was unable to produce enough LNG for exports. With new liquefaction capacity entering in service the trade is now flourishing again. On the supply side, the two largest exporters are Qatar and Australia, together accounting for almost half of the total volumes exported worldwide.

  • Shareholder Letter March 2013
    Shareholder Letter March 2013 On October 1, 2012, Nippon Steel Corporation and Sumitomo Metal Industries, Ltd. merged to become Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation (NSSMC). This report explains the NSSMC Group’s management policies and overview of business operations. We hope you find it useful. We would like to ask your continued support to the NSSMC Group. Kimitsu Steel Works To Our Shareholders Let us thank you first and foremost for your support. Since the integration on October 1 last year, we have made a good start as Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation (NSSMC). We are striving hard to raise our corporate value by integrating the strength of the two former companies. Harsh business environment continues The global economy is seeing signs of a modest pick-up in the U.S. and emerging countries while Japan’s economy is Representative Director, President and COO, Tomono(left) experiencing only a sporadic recovery in Representative Director, Chairman, and CEO, Muneoka(right) some areas, partly due to the correction of the overvaluation of the yen in the Specifically, many steelmakers, for construction, manufacturers world currency market.

Its aims are to further public interest in and awareness of environmental issues, and to take part in responsible actions regarding conservation and environmental issues. After much careful thought and discussion, about the uranium issue, members of the organisation have agreed that the mining and export of Australian uranium must not proceed until there has been widespread, lengthy public debate and discussion. We feel that the discussion to date has been minimal and very one-sided: the uranium debate has only begun.
