Green CO2-free steelmaking route based on H2-plasma technology

Project focus

The main objective of H2PlasmaRed is to develop a green CO2-free steelmaking route based on H2-plasma technology while promoting a circular economy by valorizing industrial sidestreams to meet the targets of the European Green Deal for reducing CO2 emissions in the steel industry across Europe.

Meet the targets of the European Green Deal

Our ambition is to introduce a

Near CO2 free reduction process

Explore the Hydrogen plasma smelting reduction (HPSR) process

Develop HPSR from TRL5 to TRL7

Innovative solutions for process control and modeling

Framework for upscaling and uptake

Long-lasting impact and deployment

Documentary:

Made in Europe: from mine to electric vehicle

The documentary “Made in Europe: from mine to electric vehicle” investigates the challenges faced by Europe as it attempts to set up its own, fully integrated, mine-to-EV value chain.

 

The film acts as a wake-up call to avoid that Europe’s decarbonisation strategy leads to a nightmarish de-industrialisation. Instead, the documentary shows that Europe’s transition to climate neutrality can go hand in hand with a cleantech-based re-industrialisation. Made-in-Europe.
