Environmental Considerations
Promotion of Environmental Risk Management
Nippon Steel is promoting management of environmental risk with the aim of continually enhancing preservation of the environment in various regions, with due consideration of environmental risks, which differ by each steelworks and factory, and with due consideration to compliance with Japan’s Air Pollution Control Act and other regulations.
■Atmospheric risk management
In order to reduce emissions of sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), Nippon Steel is taking measures such as using low-sulfur fuel, adopting low NOx generating burners and installing effective equipment.
■Water risk management
We use approximately 90% recycled or reused water to reduce wastewater discharge, at all of our steelworks and factories combined.
