Poland is one of the most important producers of raw steel and steel products in Europe. During the past decade a considerable number of companies in steel sector in Poland efforts to reduce their impact on the environment, applying the principles of cleaner production (CP). The restructuring of the industry and implementation new eco-technologies caused an increase in share of material recycling, including steel scrap recovered in production processes and from post-use recycling. Depending on the type of steel waste, it can be returned to the process as energy source or raw material for steel fabrication or else be traded as co-product to other industrial applications. The reuse of these products is of great importance for the sector owing to economical and environmental aspects Such directions of steel waste utilization are consistent with the ‘zero waste’ strategy and they should be further investigated in Polish conditions, taking into account the possibilities of development, modernization and construction of new installations. These eco-technologies will be especially supported by European funds in new programming period 2014-2020.
