About one-quarter of the world's steel is produced by the electric-arc method, which uses high-current electric arcs to melt steel scrap and convert it into
Steel is primarily produced using one of two methods: Blast Furnace or Electric Arc Furnace. The blast furnace is the first step in producing steel from
The basic principle of electric steelmaking today is that the furnace is a “melting machine” that produces liquid steel with required chemistry, temperature,
furnace. Electric steel processes are based on the use of scrap, with small amounts. of solid pig iron. Over 90 % of all electric steel produced is by the
Stainless steel is produced in an electric arc furnace where carbon electrodes contact recycled stainless scrap and various alloys of chromium (and nickel,
