It surveys and compares the applicability, economics, and emissions-reduction potential of key technologies\u2014including waste heat recovery, system efficiency improvements, and hydrogen-based metallurgy\u2014through in-depth case studies (HBIS Group&#039;s hydrogen metallurgy, Shougang Jingtang&#039;s process interface optimization, and Sinosteel\/CISP&#039;s hydrogen-based smelting reduction, among others).
