About this Symposium

This symposium focuses on experimental or computational efforts to decarbonize steel - via modification of steel production, design or applications - for higher energy efficiencies and lower emissions, including (but not limited to):
- Designing robust alloys or processing routes to minimize production energy and emissions and to improve scrap recyclability
- Designing high performance steels or low-density steels for low weight applications, e.g. automotive applications
- Designing microstructures in optimized chemical compositions for extreme environments, e.g. extreme temperatures and/or pressures, hydrogen environments, etc.
- Steel alloy and processing developments for renewable energy applications
