Toward Fossil‐Free Steelmaking: Overview of Physiochemical Properties of Hydrochar and Its Application in Blast Furnace and Electric Arc Furnace Processes

cScience, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The steel industry is among one of the largest CO2 emitters in the world. To meet climate targets, replacing fossil‐based carbon with renewable biocarbon in metallurgical processes, particularly in blast furnaces (BFs) and electric arc furnaces (EAFs), has emerged as a viable short‐ to mid‐term solution.

Magnetic Multifunctional Nanoparticles for Effective Targeted Cancer Therapy

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 5, Issue 10, October 2025.
To overcome physiological barriers and achieve prolonged tumor retention, core–shell nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2@Au, termed FSA‐NPs) with gold‐decorated surfaces are constructed. FSA‐NPs exhibit strong magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast and potent anticancer effects through the synergistic action of chemotherapy, magnetic targeting, and ...

Sodium Oxide-Fluxed Aluminothermic Reduction of Manganese Ore with Synergistic Effects of C and Si Reductants: SEM Study and Phase Stability Calculations

Reactions
Aluminothermic reduction is an alternative processing route for the circular economy because Al is produced electrochemically in the Hall–Héroult process with minimal CO2 emissions if the electricity input is sourced from non-fossil fuel energy sources ...

A Perspective on Powder Metallurgy and Additive Manufacturing of High‐Nitrogen Alloyed Stainless Steels

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 14, July 2025.
This perspective article explores an innovative powder metallurgical approach to producing high‐nitrogen steels by utilizing a mixture of stainless steel and Si3N4. This mixture undergoes hot isostatic pressing followed by direct quenching. The article also examines adapting this method to laser powder bed fusion (PBF‐LB/M) to overcome nitrogen ...

A Novel Approach on Rapid Alloy Development of Tool Steels for Laser Powder Bed Fusion by In Situ Alloying

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 14, July 2025.
A novel approach for alloy development in laser powder bed fusion is introduced. Instead of producing massive samples of one composition at a time, prepressed powder bed samples produced from powder mixtures are processed. Guidelines for the selection of precursor powders are developed.
