Question:

How much CO2 is emitted when you produce 1 metric ton of iron or steel? Both for new (iron ore) and recycled?

I need to find out how much co2 is produced when you produce 1 metric ton of iron or steel from iron oreand how much co2 is produced when you produce 1 metric ton of iron or steel from recycled iron or steel

Answer:

Personally I bought a Spectra from Pepboys for my Mazda and with the tubing and everything it cost me about 80 bucks, what your looking at looks alright to me though
I've used off brand filters before, and They worked just fine for me. sounds like a good deal. You may not get much of a increase tho. I never got a huge increase with kn or an off brand, it just has a growl when you accelerate. don't spend too much.
How much CO2 is produced will depend on the power source, which I can't speak for. The majority (I believe 98%) of all steel is recycled, so very little is being made from new ore.
Fe2O3(l) + 3CO(g) -- 3CO2(g) + 2Fe(l) Fe2O3 MW 159.69 g/mole 1 * 10^6 g metric ton 1 metric ton 6382 moles of iron ore produces 3 moles CO2 per Fe2O3 19146 moles CO2 44g/mole 19146 moles CO2 842424 g 0.84 metric tons
