Ferrous products obtained by direct reduction of iron ore (DRI / HBI). Used as low-carbon feedstock for EAF steelmaking.

Why is DRI lower-carbon than pig iron?

DRI uses natural gas (or hydrogen) to reduce iron ore -- bypasses the coke-fired blast furnace. Direct emissions are 0.6-1.0 t CO2/t for gas-based DRI; near-zero for hydrogen DRI.

Methodology guide -- CN 7203 (DRI / HBI)

DRI (Direct Reduced Iron) and HBI (Hot Briquetted Iron) are low-carbon iron feedstocks. Strategic CBAM imports as the EU steel sector decarbonises.

Step 1 -- understand the natural-gas vs. hydrogen split. Most current DRI is gas-based (Midrex, HYL); hydrogen-DRI is starting to scale (HYBRIT in Sweden, H2 Green Steel). Hydrogen DRI is near-zero emissions; gas DRI is 0.6-1.0 t CO2/t direct.

Step 2 -- request verified data with the reduction pathway. Verifier should disclose the reductant gas mix (natural gas / hydrogen / blend) and the upstream electricity source for the DRI plant.

Step 3 -- monitor growing low-carbon DRI supply. Several global projects (HBIS, Hyundai, MIDREX licensees) are developing low-carbon DRI capacity. Strategic CBAM advantage for early-mover importers.
