I spend much of my spare time doing outdoor activities such as mountainbiking, hiking, diving and riding my motorcycle. Had I not become a metallurgist, I would have entered the field of science and gone on to study nature and examine natural phenomena.</p></div></div><p><strong>How do the technologies you specialize in enable the transition to green steel?</strong></p><p><strong><strong><strong>脟atan</strong>:</strong></strong> Electrification鈥攖he field I specialize in鈥攊s geared toward replacing processes that rely on fossil fuels. It will forever change our idea of the steel-production process. Electric arc furnaces are also designed to recycle the material that is already there; they take us one step closer to the circular economy. Electrification implies a streamlining of the overall process without CO2-emissions-heavy steps such as sintering or coking. I enjoy the future-oriented nature of electric steelmaking and am currently working on some projects designed to further extend the scope of what EAFs can achieve.</p><p class="has-background"
