From Furnace to Footprint
Product Carbon Footprints for Steel A Practical ISO 14067 Training Guide
Can you trace every tonne of CO₂e from the furnace to the finished steel product—and defend the result? Learn ISO 14067 through worked calculations, three steelmaking routes, and a complete industrial case study.

About the Book
From Furnace to Footprint is a practice-oriented training book for engineers, sustainability professionals, consultants and technical reviewers who need to work with product greenhouse gas data in industrial settings. Its central example is the fictional Delta Steel Group, whose integrated BF–BOF, scrap–EAF and DRI–EAF routes let the reader follow the same decisions from goal and scope through material balances, source data, calculation and interpretation.
The ten core levels move from GHG accounting and life-cycle assessment foundations to steel-process calculations, product studies, data quality, reproducible calculation systems, a standards and CBAM crosswalk, and a consulting capstone. Worked examples expose the reference flows, assumptions and intermediate arithmetic. Exercises and diagnostic quizzes let readers test each step; Appendix B contains the worked answers, while Appendix A records the sources, symbols, assumptions and numerical lineage.
The Delta Steel Group figures are teaching models, not measurements of operating plants. The book distinguishes published reference values from invented inputs and identifies where a partial or selected-source result stops. It does not reproduce the licensed text of ISO 14067 or turn an example into a verified CFP, an Environmental Product Declaration or a CBAM declaration. For a real assignment, the practitioner must obtain facility and supplier evidence, apply the relevant licensed standards and product rules, and check the regulation in force for the reporting period.

About the Author
Eng. Ahmed Samir Farag
Eng. Ahmed Samir Farag is a Mechanical Power Engineer and a CBAM & Decarbonization Strategy Advisor based in Egypt. my work sits where three fields meet — heavy industrial operations, greenhouse gas accounting and carbon regulation — and that position shapes the way this book is written: every concept is tied to a measurement, a calculation and a decision that a real facility has to make.
I am a Certified Carbon Footprint Auditor, officially accredited by the Egyptian Organization for Standardization and Quality (EOS), Egypt's national standards body. This gives him direct experience of GHG assertions from the auditor's side of the table: the evidence a verifier asks for, the gaps that lead to findings, and what makes an inventory defensible.
As CBAM & Decarbonization Strategy Advisor at Ta-meri Systems LLC, he leads the development of three industrial carbon platforms: SteelCarbon, for ISO 14064-1 organization-level GHG inventories; CBAMCalc, for compliance under the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (Regulation (EU) 2023/956); and CemIntelligence, for life cycle assessment and Environmental Product Declarations for cement under EN 15804+A2.
I advise Egyptian steel and cement producers on GHG inventories, CBAM readiness and decarbonization pathways. my engagements range from rebuilding an entire inventory at the level of individual evidence items and defending it before an audit, to feasibility studies on renewable power, green hydrogen and carbon capture for EAF steelmaking and cement kilns. I write my board-level recommendations in both English and Arabic.
I am completing a Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) specializing in strategic decarbonization.my research takes the same practitioner view as this book: a framework counts only if a plant can apply it.
I wrote this book for the professional I wished I could have hired earlier in my career — one who understands the standard clause by clause, calculates emissions correctly the first time, and can defend every number in front of a verifier.
