Guided by the Dual Carbon Goals, the Iron & Steel Industry Marches Toward Green Development
As a core technology for energy conservation and carbon reduction in the ironmaking system, the belt roaster has become a key breakthrough for the green transformation and high-quality development of the steel industry, thanks to its distinct advantages: low energy consumption, high productivity, strong adaptability, and superior product quality.
To advance technological upgrading of Handan's iron and steel industry and support low-carbon regional industrial development, the Handan Iron & Steel Industry Belt Roaster Technology Promotion Conference will be grandly held on April 23, 2026, at the Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel in Handan.
The conference is hosted by the Handan Development and Reform Commission, and co-organized by Handan MER Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd., Danieli NewDT, NewFer, and WISDRI.
Based on Handan's industrial foundation in iron and steel, this promotion conference focuses on cutting-edge belt roaster technologies and practical applications. It will bring together government authorities, authoritative industry experts, leading steel enterprises, core equipment suppliers, and technical service providers to build an in-depth exchange platform integrating government, industry, academia, research, and application.
The conference will conduct in-depth discussions on key topics including process innovation, equipment upgrading, intelligent operation and maintenance, energy conservation and carbon reduction, and cost optimization for belt roasters. It will share advanced technological achievements and benchmark project cases from home and abroad, providing efficient, green, and intelligent ironmaking front-end production solutions for steel enterprises in Handan and surrounding areas. These solutions will help enterprises break through energy consumption bottlenecks, enhance product competitiveness, and achieve sustainable development.
