💡 We are thrilled to share that Calderys is featured in the 𝗠𝗮𝘆/𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 issue of Steel Times International with the article“𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗹.” As the steel industry explores cleaner alternatives to traditional processes, hydrogen produced using renewable energy offers a promising path towards carbon neutrality. Authored by Bruno Touzo and Sangram MOHAPATRA, this editorial explains how the transition to green hydrogen-powered steel production will be driven by exciting technological advancements, including the development of new refractories. Innovative processes such as hydrogen based 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻 (𝗗𝗥𝗜), electrolysis iron of iron ore, hydrogen injection into blast furnaces coupled with 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 (𝗖𝗖𝗦) are among the cutting-edge approaches discussed. Calderys is developing adapted refractory solutions for its customers, at its state of the art research and development facility in the USA, Europe and Asia Pacific. Further by partnering with a number of external laboratories and joint industrial research projects Calderys is moving ahead of competition. ▶️ Discover the full article starting from 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟰𝟬 by visiting the link below: https://lnkd.in/ehGxU6rC Bruno Touzo, Bertrand Hiot, Sangram MOHAPATRA, Michael Clark, Crawford Murton, Craig Willoughby, Salih Erez #WeAreCalderys #GreenSteel #Sustainability #Innovation #Refractories #SteelIndustry #DRI #HydrogenSteelmaking

The current discussion on steel, in the UK, is not short on opinion; but it is short on evidence. The debate seems to be polarised between pro and cons of Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs). This is not the right debate. Syndex advocated for the role of EAFs in the decarbonisation of the UK steel industry years ago[1]. Being supportive of the role of EAFs doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t underestimate the challenges and risks of a switch to 100% EAF steelmaking… [1] https://lnkd.in/efryJ9pT. In this paper we have also introduced the idea of a shared DRI facility for the UK steel industry. Despite its limitation on operational costs resulting for the need to use briquettes instead of hot DRI, this would allow to spread of the CAPEX among several stakeholders. Question 1 :

#steeltimesinternational always a must read for steel enthusiasts!!!! This issue with the perspective from Dr. Nils Naujok and myself on the transformation of the steel industry #greensteel

It’s not too late! There is still time to submit a concept paper for the U.S. Department of Energy’s $83M funding opportunity to decrease emissions in the hardest to decarbonize industrial subsectors. Concept papers are due March 19. Specifically for iron and steel this funding opportunity has areas of interest in: 1) Alternative ironmaking process technologies 2) Ore beneficiation 3) Improving steel recyclability through reducing tramp metal contaminants 4) Low-carbon steelmaking technologies Find out more here: https://lnkd.in/gs6Mvw2Z

Direct-reduced iron (DRI) is increasingly recognized as a crucial raw material for low-carbon steel owing to its sustainability benefits. In the latest article in Steel Times International, Pasi Mannisto and Daniele Pedron, Global Industry Segment Managers at ABB Motion, highlight the importance of having the right process equipment, including motors and drives, for scaling up DRI production.
