Traditional Iron and steelmaking technology is very mature, with rudimentary blast furnaces being first developed thousands of years ago. For hundreds of years this technology has controlled iron and steel production, gradually becoming more efficient and greater understood. However, the use of this legacy technology generates larges amount of greenhouse gas emissions, which are now understood to be harmful. Therefore, the progress of new breakthrough technologies in iron and steel making are now essential to significantly lower carbon emissions and combat climate change.
