                              In a smart steel mill, thermal imaging cameras can monitor inside of a furnace better than humans.              In nature, iron is bound to oxygen. To produce steel, coal (carbon) was used to separate the two
            Tidbit            They analyze real-time temperature readings and distinguish minute differences in heat color,   Tidbit          elements. Today, hydrogen reduction iron and steel-making uses hydrogen to extract iron, thereby
                              allowing prompt responses to quality defects.                                                                   eliminating carbon release.
