Indian steelmaker Jindal Steel and Power Limited (JSPL) said it has ordered a gas injection system for its blast furnace from UK-based plant manufacturer Primetals Technologies, which will be installed on the No.1 blast furnace of JSPL India's Angul steel plant, which can replace some traditional carbon-containing fuels with hydrogen.

This can not only reduce the carbon emissions of the blast furnace but also reduce the operating costs of the factory and the cost of hot metal.

The No.1 blast furnace was also provided by Primetals Technologies in 2017. This time, it is equipped with a new system from Primetals Technologies and will further contribute to the goal of reducing carbon emissions.
