The project meeting took place in Naples from May 26–27, hosted by Osvalda Senneca and her team at Istituto Motori – CNR. All partners (CNR, RUB, Doosan, RWE, and e-loop) were present. Initial results from the fluidized bed reactor using various iron ores were presented, including kinetic evaluations and reduction trends. Constructive discussions between academia and industry helped identify key focus areas. The evening social dinner with a stunning view of Naples and Mount Vesuvius fostered team spirit and sparked new ideas. On the second day, goals for the upcoming work packages were defined and participants visited the laboratories of STEMS and the University of Naples Federico II.
