Steel is made from iron ore, a compound of iron, oxygen and other minerals that occurs in nature. The raw materials for steelmaking are mined and then transformed into steel using two different processes: the blast furnace/basic oxygen furnace route, and the electric arc furnace route
Iron ore is mixed with coke (a fuel with few impurities and a high carbon content), usually made from coal. When these are heated together in a blast furnace molten iron, also known as pig iron, is formed. There are two different methods to make steel, basic oxygen and electric arc furnace
Read MoreThe pig iron, limestone and iron ore go into an open-hearth furnace. It is heated to about 1,600 degrees F (871 degrees C). The limestone and ore form a slag that floats on the surface. Impurities, including carbon, are oxidized and float out of the iron into the slag. When the carbon content is right, you have carbon steel
Read MoreTo make steel, iron ore is first mined from the ground. It is then smelted in blast furnaces where the impurities are removed and carbon is added. In fact, a very simple definition of steel is iron alloyed with carbon, usually less than 1%. The following text is taken from the Structural Manual For Ironworkers Manual V-Volume I
Read MoreAug 21, 2020 Ironmaking, the first step in making steel, involves the raw inputs of iron ore, coke, and lime being melted in a blast furnace. The resulting molten iron—also referred to as hot metal—still contains 4-4.5% carbon and other impurities that make it brittle
Read MoreScrap metal is charged into one of our steelmaking vessels (or convertors) and the liquid iron is then added to the vessel. Using a water-cooled lance, high purity oxygen is blown at twice the speed of sound onto the surface of the liquid iron at very high pressure

Read MoreJun 22, 2016 Jun 22, 2016 It is produced by baking coal until it becomes carbon by burning off impurities without burning up the coal itself. When coke is consumed it generates intense heat but little smoke, making it ideal for smelting iron and steel. Prior to the 1880’s, steel was produced using charcoal. By 1920, nearly 90% of US steel was produced using coke
Read MoreThe steel is of the spring steel family and have a 0.6 – 0.7 present of carbon in it. presumably the more carbon the better the sparks. Any way the sparks that steel produce is good enough to light a char fabric or better still a 000 grad steel wool

Steel industry advocates would be quick to point out that plenty of the steel it produces is used within the renewable energy space and more than makes up for its carbon footprint over its lifetime
