Metallurgy steelmaking

Over 95% of the world s DRI production is consumed in electric arc furnace steelmaking. The remaining 5% is spHt among blast furnaces, oxygen steelmaking, foundries, and ladle metallurgy (qv) faciUties.

After the Second World War, the technical innovations, both in steelmaking and in the physical metallurgy of steels, continued apace. A number of industrial research laboratories were set up around the world, of which perhaps the most influential was the laboratory of the US Steel Corporation in Pennsylvania, where some world-...

Because carbon is a ubiquitous element in both iron- and steelmaking processes due to its essential use as a reductant during the extractive process of iron from its ores, carbon has a predominant role in siderurgy (i.e., the metallurgy of iron and its alloys). Although other... 

Common industrial uses for fused silica are steelmaking, coke making, metallurgy, glass production, nonferrous foundries, precision foundries, ceramics, the chemical industry, the nuclear industry, and finally aeronautics.

You may have heard of Coras - it s the largest steelmaker in the UK. I work for a company that is half owned by them called SMS Mevac. We are internationally active in plant construction and mechanical engineering relating to the processing of steel, non-ferrous metals and plastics. We are specialists in secondary metallurgy.

As product specifications become more demanding, manufacturers require steel with ever more specific functional properties. As a result, there has been a wealth of research on how those properties emerge during steelmaking. Fundamentals of metallurgy summarises this research and its implications for manufacturers.
