Steel is an alloy of iron & carbon containing less than 2%carbon & 1% manganese & small amounts of silicon, phosphorous, Sulphur & oxygen. Because of its high tensile strength & low cost, it is a major component used in buildings, infrastructure, tolls, ships, automobiles, machines, appliances & weapons. Steel is produced via two main routes: the blast furnace-basic oxygen furnace (BF-BOF) route and electric arc furnace (EAF) route. Variations and combinations of production routes also exist. The key difference between the routes is the type of raw materials they consume. For the BF-BOF route these are predominantly iron ore, coal, and recycled steel, while the EAF route produces steel using mainly recycled steel and electricity. Depending on the plant configuration and availability of recycled steel, other sources of metallic iron such as direct-reduced iron (DRI) or hot metal can also be used in the EAF route. About 75% of steel is produced using the BF-BOF route. First, iron ores are reduced to iron, also called hot metal or pig iron. Then the iron is converted to steel in the BOF. After casting and rolling, the steel is delivered as coil, plate, sections or bars. Another steelmaking technology, the open hearth furnace (OHF), makes up about 0.4% of global steel production.
