The new facility will capture more than 95% of CO 2 produced by generating hydrogen from the feedstock natural gas and store it safely back underground (i.e., Hydrogen-fueled electricity will offset the remaining five percent of emissions. The project relies on an innovative combination of well-established technologies. blue hydrogen).

The CO 2 produced from the BF is used in the TC cycle to produce more CO, therefore creating a closed carbon loop, allowing for the decoupling of steel production from greenhouse gas emissions. The novel recycling system captures the CO 2 from the top gas and reduces it to CO using a perovskite crystalline mineral lattice.
