Prof. XUE Qingguo said that low-carbonization and intelligent steel are two major issues in the steel industry. Among them, low-carbonization is the top priority for metallurgical workers. As a university with industry characteristics, USTB was born for iron and steel, it is duty-bound to make its due contribution to technological innovation and talent training.

Prof. WU Aixiang said that China, as the center of the world's iron and steel industry, can only rely on our own core technological innovation and breakthroughs, the industry must focus on key generic technologies to strengthen research. USTB will give full play to its technological and innovation-leding advantages, vigorously promote the technological transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and contribute to the development of the industry and the progress of the society.

Mr. HUANG Dao, Deputy Secretary General of CISA, pointed out that according to various data, time is tight and task is heavy for the iron and steel industry to achieve "carbon peak emissions". Efforts should be made to save energy in process structure, raw material structure and energy structure. At the same time, USTB is expected to make greater contributions in cross-border integration and collaborative disposal.
