Modeling and optimizing electricity consumption in the steel industry, particularly within direct reduction units, represents a critical challenge due to the sector’s substantial energy demands.

Direct reduction of iron oxide using hydrogen offers a sustainable route to lower carbon emissions in steelmaking. Although iron oxide feedstocks consist of polycrystalline pellets, the influence of ...

Instead, you use green hydrogen in a direct reduction process, both as your reductant and to power an electric arc furnace to supply the heat. Instead of tons of carbon dioxide, this process emits ...

SHANGHAI-- China Baowu and Rio Tinto have successfully completed industrial-scale pelletisation and shaft furnace trials in China using Rio Tinto’s Pilbara Blend iron ore, as part of their broader ...

The Western Australian government has welcomed Rio Tinto’s new low-emissions iron-ore processing pilot in Kwinana, describing it as a key initiative to decarbonise the state’s largest export and ...
