Tata Steel Europe announced that the company has been carrying out long-term testing of its HIsarna plant at the Tata Steel site in IJmuiden, the Netherlands. HIsarna is a completely new technology for producing iron which consists of a reactor in which iron ore is injected at the top. The ore is liquefied in a high-temperature cyclone and drips to the bottom of the reactor where powder coal is injected. This significantly reduces the number of energy-intensive steps required for the traditional steelmaking process. Testing has already shown this technology can lead to a significant reduction in CO2 emissions from the steel production process. During the final test campaign, experiments were done with the use of steel scrap and biomass. This revealed it was possible to achieve a CO2 reduction of more than 50%*.
Hans Fischer, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technical Officer of Tata Steel’s European operations, said “HIsarna’s results show we can make a significant contribution to improving the sustainability of steel production with this Tata Steel technology. The development of this technology forges our ambition to become a steel company which is sustainable in all respects.”
The HIsarna plant has now become a permanent part of the production chain at the IJmuiden site with molten iron joining that from the blast furnaces in the steelmaking process. Meanwhile, the design of an industrial scale HIsarna plant capable of making up to 20 times more liquid iron has started. It could be put into operation in seven years.
