WP1: Development of green hydrogen use in iron
and steel making
Unlock the Future of Steelmaking with Hydrogen
Establish Comprehensive Guidelines: Ensure the safe and reliable integration of hydrogen (H₂) in industrial steelmaking plants.
Boost Confidence in the technological approach: Demonstrate the feasibility and benefits of incorporating hydrogen into the steelmaking process.
Assess strategy Impact: Analyze the effects of varying H₂ percentages in CH4+H₂ blends on plant equipment and localized distribution piping within steel plant areas.
Enhance Knowledge and Standards: Advance the standards and regulatory framework for designing and implementing hydrogen-specific components in steelmaking, addressing all health, safety, and environmental (HSE) concerns.
