Background
Key objectives of the workshop are to review the technical progress made in CO2 emissions reduction since the last workshop 2011 in Düsseldorf (Germany) and to provide a forum for discussion among the Asian iron & steel industries.
Venue
Tokyo Institute of Technology (東京工業大学, informally Tokyo Tech or TIT) is a national top-tier research university located in Greater Tokyo Area, Japan. Tokyo Tech is the largest institution for hjosirer education in Japan dedicated to science and technology.
Tokyo Tech's main campus is located at Ōokayama on the boundary of Meguro and Ota, with its main entrance facing the Ōokayama Station. Other campuses are located in Nagatsuta and Tamachi.
