[Seminar] Pathway to Carbon Neutrality in Sectors Where Emission Reduction is Difficult

Sectors that are hard to abate

Our company will hold a business seminar. The steel and chemical industries are considered hard-to-abate sectors, making carbon neutrality challenging. This is due to the use of fossil resources such as oil and coal as raw materials in industries like chemicals, as well as the significant energy required in the production process. On the other hand, the materials industry can be seen as one that generates substantial added value, as products are created through relatively long supply chains. Recently, the Society of Chemical Engineers published a position paper on pathways to carbon neutrality for hard-to-abate industries. This seminar will explain the contents of this position paper and outline pathways to achieving carbon neutrality, including reforms to social systems, utilizing the supply chain. [Seminar Details] ■ Date and Time: February 19, 2025 (Wednesday) 16:30 - 18:30 (Doors open at 16:00) ■ Speaker: Professor Masahiko Matsukata, Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering, Waseda University *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
