1 Patented or in submission process. ² Considering substitution of sintering. ³ Considering scope 1 and 2. Briquetting
process also has 99% less SOx, 75% less NOx and 20% less particulates emissions than pelletizing process.
Briquetting is a disruptive technology developed
in-house and patented by Vale
Uses
Sinter, pellet and lump substitute in blast furnaces
