3. Impacts and indications for steel in ecological engineering
3.1 Overview of steel life cycle analysis
Steel is over 98% iron. Iron is extracted from iron oxide ores such as hematite, magnetite and limonite. The main iron producers are in Australia, Brazil, China, India and Russia.
The consequences of iron mining on the environment are numerous:
Iron mining can lead to the emission of combustion products such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide....
