hot gas dedusting

– (ES) Mr President, Commissioner, this was a good proposal in the form in which it came from the Commission, not only because of the sulphur reductions but also because of its new Article 7a, which demanded a gradual reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from suppliers, and because it resolved the old vapour pressure problem for petrol-bioethanol mixtures in countries such as mine that have hot summers.

All processes directly or indirectly linked to the process units blast furnace, hot metal treatment units, blast furnace blowers, blast furnace hot stoves, basic oxygen furnace, secondary metallurgy units, vacuum ladles, casting units (including cutting), slag treatment unit, burden preparation, BF gas treatment unit, dedusting units, scrap pre-heating, coal drying for PCI, vessels preheating stands, casting ingots preheating stands, compressed air production, dust treatment unit (briquetting), sludge treatment unit (briquetting), steam injection in BF unit, steam generation plant, converter BOF gas cooling and miscellaneous are included

I'm trying to understand—just to back up, when you watch the weather on TV at night, you see there's a cold front coming from the far north and there's warm air coming from the south, etc.—if there is any possible way that you know of to measure the effectiveness of environmental programs to reduce greenhouse gases, when we really only occupy half of one continent.

Hon. Stéphane Dion: But in the plan it's very clear that first, it should be to decrease greenhouse gas emissions; it should not be for so-called “hot air” in Spanish.
