The injection of alternative reducing agents into blast furnaces is recognized for its potential to enhance both the carbon footprint and operational costs. Specifically, the use of hydrogen-bearing gases can shift the reduction of iron oxide from carbon to hydrogen, resulting in significant environmental benefits. Recent projects and experiences from the authors' company highlight a changing...

Gas-based direct reduction (DR) is a key process in low-emission steelmaking due to its flexibility to utilize a variety of reducing agents with lower GHG emissions compared to blast furnace (BF) ironmaking. While direct reduced iron (DRI) and hot-briquetted iron (HBI) produced from low-gangue iron ore are commonly used in electric arc furnaces (EAFs), efficient processing of DRI made from...
