Steel Production Film

This lecture delves into the intricate process of steel production, starting from the early stages of metallurgy over 3000 years ago to the modern, environmentally conscious techniques used by companies like Arcelor. The lecture covers the production steps at Sidmar, a leading steel company, from the preparation of raw materials like iron ore and coal to the transformation into high-value carbon flat steel products. It explores the environmental policies implemented by Sidmar, the conversion of iron ore into molten iron in blast furnaces, the refinement into steel through oxygen blowing, and the various quality control measures in place. The lecture also details the continuous casting, rolling, galvanization, and coating processes involved in producing steel sheets used in construction, appliances, and automotive industries.
