A Thermochemical Shift in Steelmaking: Replacing Carbon with Hydrogen to Mitigate CO₂ Emissions
Introduction The steel industry is one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, accounting for approximately 7–9% of global CO₂ emissions. Traditional steelmaking processes, particularly the Blast Furnace-Basic Oxygen Furnace (BF-BOF) route, rely heavily on coal-based reductants like coke, resulting in substantial CO₂ emissions. A promising solution gaining momentum is the use…
