HBMER Pioneers Green Steel Transition with Innovative H2-DRI and HBHIsmelt Technologies

Hebei, China – [Jan 13, 2025] – As a global leader in direct reduced iron (DRI) technology, HBMER is accelerating the steel industry's green transformation through its integrated EPCO+Financing solutions and two groundbreaking production technologies: hydrogen-based H2-DRI and carbon-optimized HBHIsmelt melting reduction systems.

H2-DRI Technology: Hydrogen-Powered Steel Production
HBMER's H2-DRI technology, compatible with both Midrex and HYL Energiron systems, offers annual capacities from 800,000 to 2,500,000 tons. By replacing carbon-intensive blast furnaces with hydrogen-based reduction, this technology achieves dramatic CO₂ reductions while maintaining exceptional cost efficiency.

The system's flexibility extends to raw material utilization, accommodating various iron ore grades without compromising performance. This adaptability, combined with significantly lower operational costs compared to conventional methods, positions H2-DRI as the optimal solution for steel producers targeting sustainable, economically viable production.

HBHIsmelt Melting Reduction Technology: Carbon-Optimized Production
Complementing the hydrogen-focused approach, HBMER's HBHIsmelt technology (600,000-1,200,000 tpa) represents a major advancement in carbon-based reduction. This melting reduction process minimizes CO₂ emissions through optimized carbon efficiency and enhanced energy recovery mechanisms.

The technology's compatibility with diverse iron-bearing materials and reduced dependence on coking coal translates to both environmental benefits and improved cost competitiveness, making it particularly suitable for regions transitioning gradually to full decarbonization.

Comprehensive Solutions for Green Steel Development
"HBMER's dual-technology approach enables tailored solutions for steel producers worldwide," stated a company representative. "Our EPCO+Financing model ensures clients can implement these advanced technologies with minimized risk and optimized investment structures."

Both technologies align with global decarbonization goals while addressing the economic realities of steel production. The H2-DRI system offers a direct path to near-zero emissions, while HBHIsmelt provides a practical transition technology with significantly improved environmental performance.
