Researchers create green steel from toxic red mud in 10 minutes

Researchers have devised an economically viable way of reducing the environmental impact of both the steel and aluminum industries by using hydrogen to melt down the toxic red mud left over from aluminum production to produce green steel in around 10 m… Continue reading Researchers create green steel from toxic red mud in 10 minutes

How to decarbonize 85% of all industry using today’s technology

The industrial sector is responsible for about 25% of global CO2 emissions – or about 9.3 billion metric tonnes per year and growing. But a team at the University of Leeds says we don’t need to wait for magical new tech to clean most of it up.Continue … Continue reading How to decarbonize 85% of all industry using today’s technology

Thyssenkrupp may have just cleared the path to bulk green steelmaking

German steel giant Thyssenkrupp is investing US$1.9 billion in a hydrogen-powered direct-reduction system that can create high-quality steel without needing the rare, high-grade iron ore required by most green steel processes. This could open the flood… Continue reading Thyssenkrupp may have just cleared the path to bulk green steelmaking
