The Australian Renewable Energy Agency is investing A $59.1 million (US $3,794) to support local research and development activities in low-emission steel and promote the commercialization of hydrogen energy projects.
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency said that the funding of the low carbon emission steel project aims to gradually improve the emission reduction path of local steel production and promote the transformation of low carbon achievements; The Hydrogen project aims to accelerate the commercialization of the local hydrogen industry through innovative hydrogen production, storage and transportation technologies.
The list of projects specifically funded by the Australian Renewable Energy Agency is: Reduce the risk of large-scale fine ore hydrogen reduction iron making, research on direct reduced iron in hematite - goethite electric smelting, research on low temperature electrochemical reduction of low carbon emission steel, use seawater reverse osmosis brine project to upgrade the direct reduced iron process of iron ore, reuse of steel slag tailings, research on low temperature sintering process of iron ore, promote sustainable transformation of low carbon iron making, use powder to transport hydrogen, Promote the commercialization of solar direct hydrogen production technology, super-insulated, fully sealed, zero evaporation of ultra-large scale liquid hydrogen storage research, the use of nano-stent gas hydrate capsule + geothermal energy to achieve hydrogen storage, solar driven scalable, modular green wastewater hydrogen production device research and development, The scale expansion and demonstration of axial flow electrolyzer developed by Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization of Australia.
