Thomas Hansmann, Head of Metallurgy, SMS group and CTO for Paul Wurth, said, “We are thrilled to be the forerunners in the green steel revolution. Also included is the latest innovation from Midrex, an electric heater for the recirculating hydrogen gas designed and supplied in partnership with the Tutco SureHeat business of Flex-Tek Group, a division of the UK-based engineering company Smiths Group plc.ĭr. The plant is designed to simultaneously produce hot DRI for use in the adjacent EAF as well as hot briquetted iron (HBI). This first-of-a-kind DRI plant will be provided by a consortium of Midrex and Paul Wurth. “This is where Midrex wants to be – at the leading edge of technology.” Montague, President and CEO of Midrex Technologies, Inc. There is simply nothing like it – 100 percent hydrogen from day one to produce over 2 Mt/y of DRI with up to 95% reduction in CO 2 emissions,” says Stephen C. “This unique project is a ‘lighthouse’ to our industry and sets the standard for green steel. The plant is expected to begin production in 2025 and ramp up during 2026. By replacing coal with green hydrogen powered by renewable electricity, water and heat become the primary emissions. H2 Green Steel will produce green steel, reducing CO₂ emissions by up to 95 percent compared to traditional steelmaking. The 2.1 million tons per year MIDREX H2 TM Plant will be located in Boden, northern Sweden. (Midrex) and Paul Wurth, an SMS group company, announce a signed agreement with H2 Green Steel to supply the world’s first commercial 100 percent hydrogen direct reduced iron (DRI) plant. Major well-known plants manufacturing Sponge Iron segmented by appropriate countries are listed.12th October 2022 Midrex and Paul Wurth selected by H2 Green Steelġ00% green hydrogen to produce 2.1 million tons of DRI per yearĬHARLOTTE, USA / LUXEMBOURG (October 12, 2022) – Midrex Technologies, Inc.
