ArcelorMittal Germany World first for steel: In early 2019, the ArcelorMittal plant in Hamburg started a project to use hydrogen industrially for the direct reduction of iron ore in the steel production process for the first time. A pilot plant is to be built in the coming years, which will initially produce 100,000 tonnes of pig iron per year.
Already today, the Hamburg plant has one of the most efficient production processes of the ArcelorMittal Group due to the use of natural gas in a direct reduction plant (DRI). The aim of the new hydrogen-based process is to be able to produce steel with the lowest CO2 emissions. The project costs amount to around 65 million euros.
