Hmmm I heard of studies/prototyping/research to completely overhaul steel production in order to reduce the (gigantic) carbon footprint. It might be linked?
Not just heating it differently, really change the process…
Searching for source, will update.
Using hydrogen instead of coal, not for heating but for the reaction actually creating iron.
I remeber reading about rotating furnace, like the one used to create cement.
It’s this BS where everything done with renewables is green
So if you burn green hydrogen to make iron, the iron is green
