Использование биомассы может внести свой вклад в уменьшение выбросов СО₂ в черной металлургии. Концепция стабильного использования биомассы должна учитывать различные технологические, экономические, экологические и социальные аспекты. В данной статье основное внимание сфокусировано на источниках биомассы, ресурсах и их доступности, технологических стадиях переработки и видах продукции, а также на торговых и финансовых аспектах. Рассмотрены три основные возможности использования биомассы в черной металлургии: вдувание, включение в состав шихтовых материалов и выработка восстановительного газа. Две возможные технологии — вдувание в доменную печь и внедрение самовосстанавливающихся гранул и композитов с включениями древесного угля — рассмотрены более подробно.
