Decarbonization Options for Industry — •Uwe Riedel — DLR Institut für CO2-arme Industrieprozesse, 03046 Cottbus, Deutschland

Industrial decarbonization is pivotal to achieving emission targets. In 2024, CO2-emissions from the industrial sector amounted to approximately 153 million tons, accounting for around 25% of Germanys total CO2-emissions.

However, decarbonizing this sector is challenging due to the wide variety of processes involved. In some cases, electrification is a viable solution, but often, sector-specific approaches are necessary. The presentation will show examples from various sectors and explain the options available for different process temperatures.
