Steel has been made the same way for almost two centuries. It’s responsible for almost 10% of global CO2 emissions - more than any other heavy industry. Now, Hertha Metals has developed a single-stage #steelmaking process that replaces the high-carbon, high-emission metallurgical coal traditionally used in #steel production with either natural gas or #hydrogen. Using natural gas cuts emissions by half, and using clean hydrogen, as is Hertha’s eventual aim, eliminates CO2 emissions altogether. Here, founder and CEO Laureen Meroueh explains how the process works. Hertha Metals is a World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer, part of a community of start-ups from around the world involved in the development of #technologies for social good.
