[QUOTE="renewablejohn, post: 7741110, member: 1136"] I agree with most of what your saying here but from what I can see your LKAB plant has nothing to with producing high grade carbon steel. As far as I am aware the problem comes with the quality of injected carbon EAF being lower than blast furnace carbon steel. (Not to be confused with recycled scrap EAF which retains its original composition) [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.lkab.com/en/about-lkab/technological-and-process-development/research-collaborations/hybrit--for-fossil-free-steel/pilot-plant-in-lulea/[/URL] All the pilot plant is doing is reducing iron ore using hydrogen instead of LNG. Nothing to do with high grade carbon steel. As I keep saying its greenwash by people who should know better comparing two totally different end products. Turn the clock back 300 years and you had fossil free steel production in the UK but we soon ran out of trees. Could do the same now with the waste tyre mountain as the technology already exists.
