Nippon Steel successfully tested direct reduced iron production from low-grade iron ore using 100% hydrogen at its pilot-scale shaft furnace.
The test produced more than 1,000 tonnes of direct reduced iron over more than 300 hours of continuous operation.
The Hasaki Research & Development Center furnace began operating in March 2026, with production capacity of 1 tonne per hour.
Stable production relied on thermal compensation for hydrogen reduction and techniques to suppress low-grade ore powdering.
