• SteelmakingRelated: It provides a low-impurity alternative or supplement to scrap.

• Iron oreRelated: High-grade ore can feed direct-reduction processes that avoid blast furnaces.

• Electric arc furnaceRelated: It supplements or replaces scrap when steelmakers need more consistent metallic feedstock.

• Steel industryRelated: It supplies iron units to electric furnaces while avoiding the blast-furnace melting stage.

• Green hydrogenRelated: Hydrogen-based reduction is a route to lower-carbon iron for steelmaking.

• Hydrogen productionRelated: Hydrogen-based reduction could replace coal-derived gases in lower-emission steelmaking.

• Iron(II) oxideRelated: FeO is one oxide stage that must be reduced to make metallic iron.
