About HySRI Mission & Vision
Mission & Vision
[ Vision ]
The Pragmatic Leader in Decarbonized Steel Technology
To become a world-leading research institute, accelerating the steel industry's transition to carbon neutrality and contributing to sustainable global development through innovation in hydrogen-reduced steelmaking technology.
[ Tribal Knowledge ]
To drive fundamental innovations in green steel by
converting tacit knowledge into deployable technologies and
bridging the gap between research and industrial application.
Fundamental & Applied Research
Clarify the core reaction mechanisms of hydrogen-reduced steelmaking and develop essential original technologies for industrial application.
Talent Development
Cultivate global-caliber, multi-disciplinary leaders (Steel, Materials, Chemical Engineering, Environment) for the future steel industry.
Industry-Academia Ecosystem
Establish a strong collaboration network with partners like POSCO HyREX and other domestic/international institutes to facilitate open innovation and rapid industrial implementation.
[ Key Pillars ]
HySRI is committed to
leading global efforts in
hydrogen-reduced steelmaking through
strong global partnerships.
Strategic Research
Partnerships
Strengthening research capabilities through joint R&D with global leaders:
• POSCO HyREX Project: Maintain the primary cooperation channel for research validation and industry-driven technology development.
• International Institutes: Conduct joint projects with renowned foreign institutions (e.g., BHP-supported SSR at Newcastle University, Columbia University) to promote knowledge exchange and synergy.
• Joint Ph.D. / Researcher Programs: Boost international stature through global talent exchange via joint degree and researcher programs.
COOLIT Event Hub
Establishing the COOLIT Symposium as the key venue for global technological exchange:
• Year-Round Engagement: Host regular international workshops and technical briefings.
• Resource Integration: Integrate all COOLIT materials (presentations, photos, press releases) into the HySRI website's Event Hub for comprehensive digital archive.
Open Innovation & Standards
Ensuring research impact aligns with global industry needs:
• Global Standard Leadership: Actively participate in global policy and technology bodies to influence the standardization of carbon-neutral steel processes (LCA/TEA).
Industry Collaboration: Maintain continuous engagement with industry bodies (e.g., Korea Institute of Metals and Materials) to ensure alignment with the demands of industry transition.
