Summary of the lecture
This course introduces the principles, technologies, and development status of hydrogen-based steelmaking. Learners explore how hydrogen can reduce reliance on fossil fuels in existing and future steel production routes, examine the metallurgical fundamentals of hydrogen reduction, and compare the main reactor technologies used in low-carbon iron and steel production. The course also reviews the technological maturity and industrial readiness of current hydrogen-based steelmaking solutions.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this course, participants will be able to:
