Overview: U.S. Steel Group is part of USX Corporation, which is headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Coke is an essential input to the steel-making process and is produced by heating coal in coke ovens. The boilers supply steam for electricity generation, turbine-driven equipment such as pumps and fans, and for process heat. USS targeted their blast furnaces as a potential use for the COG because the furnaces use a significant amount of natural gas.
