The iron and steel industry plays an important role in China's national economy, and it is also the largest pollution-carbon emission in China. In April 2019, five ministries and commissions jointly issued the "Opinions on Promoting the Implementation of Ultra-low Emissions in the Iron and Steel Industry", leading to a beginning of ultra-low emissions for industrial flue gas, and the air pollution emissions of China's steel industry achieved a significant reduction. Since the "14th Five-Year Plan", under the background of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, with the proposal of pollution and carbon reduction, the problem of carbon incremental effect caused by ultra-low emission technologies has gradually become prominent, which has brought new technological needs to the steel industry. This work expounds the technological progress of ultra-low emissions in China's steel industry, summarizes the development direction of pollution and carbon reduction in the steel industry, and puts forward suggestions for the green and low-carbon development of the steel industry in the future, providing a reference for promoting the high-quality green development of China's steel industry.
