NLMK Group, a global steel company, has topped the ComNews Awards 2021 in the Best Digital ESG Solution nomination. The jury commended NLMK’s digital environmental service: Video Analytics of Air Emissions.

The digital service is based on machine learning algorithms. Using 64 video cameras installed at NLMK Lipetsk and around the city, the system monitors air emissions in real time. It automatically detects any emission deviations at specific sources and notifies the company’s production shops and environment team.

This solution enables a reduction in the environmental service’s reaction time to deviations. All historical emissions data is stored, making it possible to analyze past events and prevent them from recurring.
