Water Electrolysis for the Production of Hydrogen to Be Employed in the Ironmaking and Steelmaking Industry
The way to decarbonization will be characterized by the huge production of hydrogen through sustainable routes. Thus, the basic production way is water electrolysis sustained by renewable energy sources allowing for obtaining “green hydrogen”. The present paper reviews the main available technologie...
