Hosted by the BHP Centre for Sustainable Steelmaking Research (SSR) (formerly the Centre for Ironmaking Materials Research) at the University of Newcastle, the 2025 International Conference on Sustainable Cokemaking and Ironmaking aims to facilitate collaboration to identify future research opportunities, and to understand the challenges and opportunities the steel industry is facing as it transitions towards net-zero carbon.
With the global imperative to implement low-emission cokemaking and ironmaking, the University of Newcastle, through the SSR, is seizing the opportunity to host academic and industry experts in an international conference to exchange knowledge and communicate technological developments in sustainable ironmaking.
The inaugural event was held in 2023 and was an outstanding success. You can access the highlights from this event via the button below.
