The pilot captures CO₂, converts it into reducing gas using renewable electricity, and feeds it back into the furnace. This 500-kilowatt project targets processing 1,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually, with VITO’s electrode demonstrating over 2,000 hours of operation, marking progress from lab validation to industrial-scale demonstration." datetime: "2026-07-30T09:10:06.000Z" locales: - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/294332763.md) - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294332763.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/294332763.md) generator: "portal-rs" --- # Tencent backs CYCO2STEEL blast furnace carbon recycling pilot at HBIS Serbia steelworks - Tencent highlighted CarbonX 2.0 support for CYCO2STEEL, a blast-furnace retrofit aimed at cutting steelmaking emissions via a closed carbon loop. \* The process captures blast-furnace CO₂, uses renewable electricity to convert it into a reducing gas, then feeds it back into the furnace. \* A 500-kilowatt pilot is being deployed at HBIS steelworks in Serbia, designed to process 1,000 tonnes of CO₂ per year. \* VITO’s electrode has operated for more than 2,000 hours, shifting the project from lab validation toward industrial-scale demonstration.
