The iron and steel industry is an energy-intensive sector, producing large amounts of waste/by-products, such as CO2, metallurgical slag, and wastewater. Effective treatment of steelmaking waste contributes to environmental sustainability and resource conservation. This work presents a summary of recent research on steel slag-based carbon capture and storage (SS-CCS) via mineralization, an approach harnessed due to the high basicity of steel slag. We compared three SS-CCS routes: direct gas-solid carbonation, direct aqueous carbonation, and indirect carbonation, each with unique mechanisms and efficiencies. The challenges associated with these methods, including scalability and economic viability, are discussed alongside the prospects for advancing SS-CCS technologies. Overall, the ability to utilize steel slag for CO2 mineralization not only provides a viable strategy for carbon emissions reduction but also offers a pathway for sustainable waste management in the steel industry.
