Hydrogen-based Steelmaking
To decarbonize steel production, the industry is turning to a revolutionary new process: hydrogen-based steelmaking. This method uses green hydrogen to reduce iron ore, directly replacing the traditional blast furnace process.
The key advantage is that its main byproduct is water vapor, not CO₂, making it a cornerstone of the steel industry's decarbonization strategy. This innovative approach is vital for companies to meet global climate targets and secure a competitive edge in a future where sustainable production is non-negotiable, according to organizations like the World Steel Association.
