It is with great pleasure and honor that we welcome all visitors to the official website of the Hydrogen-based Steelmaking Research Institute (HySRI). As Co-Directors, we are delighted to present the vision and mission guiding our Institute.
The global steel industry currently faces an extraordinary turning point in its pursuit of carbon neutrality. This transformation necessitates unparalleled research focus, technological innovation, and, above all, robust collaboration among industry, academia, and government sectors.
HySRI was established at POSTECH to serve as a dedicated platform addressing these complex challenges. Our Institute is committed to advancing fundamental research and engineering principles crucial for hydrogen-based ironmaking and sustainable metallurgical processes. Our key research areas, encompassing reaction kinetics, multiphase modeling, process integration, carbon management, and policy studies, reflect a comprehensive approach to creating a truly sustainable steel value chain.
The strengths of HySRI are found in its people and partnerships. It is an honor to work alongside distinguished faculty members, dedicated researchers, and internationally renowned collaborators. Their expertise and insight constitute invaluable assets to our mission. In the same way the COOLIT (CO2-Lean Ironmaking & Steelmaking Technology) International Symposium has fostered essential dialogue, HySRI aspires to be a permanent hub, transforming these discussions into actionable and industry-shaping solutions.
We encourage you to explore the Institute's activities, engage with our community, and join in the shared endeavor for carbon-neutral steelmaking. Your partnership is vital to realizing this vision.
Thank you for your interest in HySRI.
We anticipate productive collaboration and lasting innovation.
