Fives showcases hydrogen combustion innovations at INFUB 2026

Fives participated in the 15th European Conference on Industrial Furnaces and Boilers (INFUB), held from April 7 to 10, 2026 in Porto, Portugal. This key industry event brings together experts to explore advanced industrial technologies and carbon-neutral solutions for thermal processes.

Driving hydrogen-based solutions for steel

As the steel industry accelerates its transition toward decarbonization, hydrogen is emerging as a key alternative fuel. One of the main challenges lies in developing combustion systems capable of operating with flexible fuel mixes, up to 100% hydrogen. At INFUB 2026, Fives highlighted its latest developments in hydrogen combustion, with a focus on AdvanTek® burners designed to meet these evolving industrial needs.

Sharing expertise through technical presentations

Throughout the conference, Fives’ experts contributed to several technical sessions, presenting innovative approaches to hydrogen combustion in industrial furnaces:

  • Flexible roof burner solutions for hydrogen integration in steel reheating furnaces
  • High-efficiency combustion systems for radiant tube furnaces
  • A modeling approach based on chemical reactor networks to optimize hydrogen-enriched industrial furnaces

Supporting the energy transition

These contributions reflect Fives’ ongoing commitment to advancing combustion technologies and supporting the steel industry’s transition toward more sustainable processes.

By combining experimental development, advanced modeling and industrial expertise, Fives continues to play an active role in shaping the future of low-carbon steel production. Participation in INFUB 2026 reinforces the Group’s position as a key partner for customers seeking to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions.
