NSF-funded research project led by Professor Guangwen Zhou to understand the fundamental mechanisms of hydrogen-based direct reduction in steel manufacturing at the atomic level. The project aims to optimize the process by studying intermediate reactions and identifying factors that can improve efficiency.
