Company aiming to create oxygen on moon finds process to make steel plants cleaner

Helios claims that replacing carbon with sodium to prise oxygen out of iron ores — an early stage in steel manufacturing — can slash carbon emissions, energy and production costs.

An Israeli company working on technology to produce oxygen on the moon for future settlement has hit on a recipe it says could substantially reduce carbon dioxide emissions and costs for the steel industry.

According to Jonathan Geifman, co-founder and CEO of Helios, based in central Israel, around two tons of global warming carbon dioxide are emitted for every ton of steel produced, making the industry responsible for eight percent of humanity’s carbon footprint.
