Researchers discover using nickel oxides during hydrogen-based steel production can double the production speed; traditional steel and metal production account for roughly 10% of global greenhouse gas

Nickel oxides catalyse hydrogen-based steel production, making the process faster and more energy efficient, and thus advancing sustainable metallurgy.

That's cool I guess, but I'm not convinced that hydrogen reduction is as good a solution as MOE (I.e. reducing molten iron ore via electrolysis).
