Nippon Gases Euro-Holding S.L.U. (NGE) is supporting initiatives for carbon neutrality by working in collaboration with Sarralle to introduce the world’s first ladle preheating station running entirely on green hydrogen at the Sestao Plant of ArcelorMittal Sestao, which realized zero CO₂ emissions. The purpose of this project was to reduce CO₂ emissions to a minimum by improving the ladle preheating operation and to switch the fuel from natural gas to green hydrogen. As a result, it was verified that the ladle was able to reach the necessary temperature under all conditions when preheated using only green hydrogen as fuel.
