ASU-led initiative announces first decarbonization projects for US industry

Fulton Schools researchers are aiding efforts by the U.S. Department of Energy to provide cost-effective, electrified alternatives for industrial process heating. Narayanan Neithalath, Fulton Professor of Structural Materials in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment,  is leading work to reduce the amount of environmentally harmful carbon dioxide emissions in the production of cement. ASU Regents Professor Vijay Vittal in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering aims to decrease those emissions from iron and steel production. The projects support the national Electrified Processes for Industry Without Carbon initiative to cut back on industrial greenhouse gas emissions.
