Project description
Hybrid technologies for low-CO2 steel manufacturing
Steel production is an energy-intensive process that generates a significant environmental footprint. Although hydrogen technology is decarbonising upstream processes in Europe today, downstream processes still exclusively depend on natural gas during thermal treatment and reheating. The EU-funded HyTecHeat project aims to validate hybrid heating technologies based on natural gas with the progressive increase of hydrogen in downstream processing. It will create a prototype multifuel combustion system that will be tested in three pilot studies to achieve technology readiness level 7. It will also assess the resulting steel quality and determine optimal operating conditions to ensure that there are no defects in the final product.
