The Impact

The article is devoted to the review of the main materials of the international conference Eurocoke-2021, which took place on October 5-6 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Despite the fact that the conference is named as European, the representatives of the world's leading firms and research centers from the EU, England, Australia, India, USA, China, Ukraine and other countries took part in its work. The article summarizes the main results and conclusions of the reports and discussions. As the most of speakers noted, that despite the impact of the global recession and the logistical difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the China's ban to use Australian coal, a significant change in the global coal market is not expected in the near future. China's trade policy has led mainly to a redistribution of markets for Australian, American, Canadian and Russian coal. Technologies and researches to replace some of the components of the coking coal charge with a cheaper coal grades or carbonaceous materials of plant origin in order to reduce the cost of coke and steel are still relevant. The strict requirements for limiting greenhouse gas emissions are forcing coke and steel producers to modernize the existing traditional production facilities (including using integrated technologies) to reduce emissions and improve the efficiency of the CO2 capturing and utilization. In the world steel production in the next decade, a significant increase in the share of technologies focused on abandoning coke and blast furnace production is hardly possible due to the high cost and duration of the corresponding projects. Keywords: coke production, steel industry, world coking coal market, steel market, trends, recession, logistics, COVID-19, greenhouse gas emissions, decarbonization, direct iron reduction, integrated technologies, stamped charge coking, biomass, catalysis.

Scenario Approach

On the eve of the worldwide negotiations of a new climate agreement in December 2009 in Copenhagen it is important to clearly understand what Russia can do to mitigate energy-related greenhouse gas emissions in the medium (until 2020) and in the long term (until 2050). The paper investigates this issue using modeling tools and scenario approach. It concludes that transition to the "Low-Carbon Russia" scenarios must be accomplished in 2020—2030 or sooner, not only to mitigate emissions, but to block potential energy shortages and its costliness which can hinder economic growth.

Global Problems

Aim. Proper development of animal breeding in the conditions of current global problems and the decrease of anthropogenic burden on environment due to greenhouse gas emissions, caused by animal breeding activity, require the study of interaction processes between animal breeding and external climatic conditions. Methods. The theoretical substantiation of the problem was performed based on scientifi c literature, statistical informa- tion of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization and the data of the National greenhouse gas emissions inventory in Ukraine. Theoretically possible emissions of greenhouse gases into atmosphere due to animal breeding in Ukraine and specifi c farms are calculated by the international methods using the statistical infor- mation about animal breeding in Ukraine and the economic-technological information of the activity of the investigated farms. Results. The interaction between the animal breeding production and weather-and-climate conditions of environment was analyzed. Possible vectors of activity for the industry, which promote global warming and negative processes, related to it, were determined. The main factors, affecting the formation of greenhouse gases from the activity of enterprises, aimed at animal breeding production, were characterized. Literature data, statistical data and calculations were used to analyze the role of animal breeding in the green- house gas emissions in global and national framework as well as at the level of specifi c farms with the consid- eration of individual specifi cities of these farms. Conclusions. Current global problems require clear balance between constant development of sustainable animal breeding and the decrease of the carbon footprint due to the activity of animal breeding.
