MACC project*:
Rio Tinto Fer et Titane energy efficiency
Project summary:
Decrease natural gas and reductant consumption by
various energy efficiency initiatives
Business case overview:
First abatement
2021
Details:
Optimising operation parameters with lean indicators and new
instrumentation to improve the process for rotary kiln at the Ore
Preparation Plant
Increase valorisation of the CO gas produced on site (by-product of the
ilmenite smelting process) to displace natural gas at the Up-Graded
Slag plant's boilers
More energy efficiency projects on the way to deliver more abatement in
the coming years
Abatement (2025)
>32ktpa CO₂e
MACC (US$/tCO2)
<$0/t CO₂e
*Marginal Abatement Cost Curve for Scope 1 & 2 emissions Under assessment through the planning process. The project has a positive NPV
at a carbon price of zero
