Last year UO chemist Paul Kempler and his team reported a way to create iron with electrochemistry, using a series of chemical reactions that turn saltwater and iron oxide into pure iron metal.

Instead of burning coal, the researchers use electricity to transform iron oxide into pure iron using a saltwater-based system. This eliminates the need for carbon-heavy fuels.

In a significant advancement for the metallurgical and powder metallurgy industries, INVOLUTE has developed a proprietary homogenisation process that efficiently converts a wide range of iron ...
