At what ratio does this process produce steel and Cl2? I'm guessing it's not a ratio of 20:1, but I don't know. The final paragraph of the article suggests it's not an awful ratio:
> Even so, scaling production to match industrial chlorine gas needs would still produce tens of millions of tons of CO2-free iron and chlorine annually
