Hydrogen Blast Furnace for Steel Production – by Cleveland-Cliffs
Here’s an article from nwitimes about the new step taken by Cleveland-Cliffs towards Green Steel future.
According to the post,
- First in the USA: Inject hydrogen into a blast furnace, reducing CO2 emissions.
- Cleaner Steel: Produces “clean pig iron” for high-end steel without sacrificing quality.
- Game-Changer: Paves the way for wider adoption of hydrogen-powered blast furnaces.
- Market Leader: Cliffs positions itself as a leader in sustainable steel production.
