firebricks store heatNew Atlas

Stanford study suggests using 'firebricks' to store most industrial process heat in a 100% renewable world.
Using firebricks avoids the need for battery storage or green hydrogen storage of renewable electricity as electricity storage is replaced by firebrick storage.
Firebricks can store heat or insulate, depending on what they’re made from.
Stanford researchers propose that electric arc furnaces, resistance furnaces and boilers could cover industrial combustion not covered by firebricks.
The CO2 emissions from steel manufacturing could be addressed by using green hydrogen instead of coke or coal to reduce iron ore to pure iron.
CO2 from cement production could be eliminated by using basalt (calcium silicate rock with no carbon) instead of limestone during ordinary Portland cement production.
