SMS to Modernize Kardemir Wire Rod Mill Karabuk based Turkish steel manufacturer Kardemir has placed an order with SMS group for the replacement of selected key components of its wire rod mill. The wire rod mill to be modernized is part of the Special Bar Quality plant supplied by SMS group in 2013, which has an output of 700,000 tonnes of bar steel, bar in coil and wire rod every year. The aim of the modernization is to produce more compact coils specifically for transport and container shipping. The packing density will be improved thanks to the new ring distribution system: The outside diameter of the coils will be reduced from 1.080 to 1.040 millimeters. To ensure that the coil height remains unchanged, the inside diameter will be reduced from 850 to 820 millimeters. The scope of the modernization by SMS group covers a loop laying head, a coil forming chamber, a new laying pipe holder and a laying pipe with new diameter, as well as the automation system for the new coil forming area, which will be integrated into the overall automation system of the SBQ plant. Commissioning of the plant will take place at the beginning of 2021 and secure Kardemir's leading position in the market for containerized quality products. Kardemir processes billets with dimensions of 150 x 150 millimeters and 170 x 170 millimeters and a length of 6 to 12 meters. The processed material ranges from high-carbon prestressed concrete wire and cold-heading steel to ball bearing and free-cutting steels. Bar steel, bar-in-coil and wire rod are produced at a rate of 150 tons per hour. The wire rod is produced in diameters of between 5.5 and 25 millimeters and laid to coils. Founded in 1930, Kardemir ranks among Turkey's largest industrial companies. It has 4,500 employees and a production capacity of 3.5 million tonnes per year. Source - Strategic Research Institute

Primetals Quantum EAF & Ladle Furnace Start at Guilin Pinggang An EAF Quantum electric arc furnace at Chinese steel producer Guilin Pinggang Iron and Steel Co Ltd with a tapping weight of 120 tonnes and a 120 tonne twin ladle furnace supplied by Primetals Technologies were started up in December 2020. The furnaces were set up in a new production facility in Pingle near Guilin in Guangxi Province, which is intended to serve the growing market for rebars. The EAF Quantum is designed to handle scrap steel of varying composition and quality. The electrical energy requirement of the electric arc furnace is extremely low because the scrap is preheated. This reduces both the working costs and the CO2 emissions. Primetals Technologies will supply the complete mechanical and electrical process equipment for the new EAF Quantum electric arc furnace and the twin ladle furnace. The balance of plant equipment and services will be provided by a local design institute. The EAF Quantum developed by Primetals Technologies combines proven elements of shaft furnace technology with an innovative scrap charging process, an efficient preheating system, a new tilting concept for the lower shell, and an optimized tapping system. This achieves very short tap-to-tap times. The electric energy consumption is considerably less than that of a conventional electric arc furnace. Together with the lower consumption of electrodes and oxygen, this gives an overall advantage in the specific conversion cost of around 20 percent. In comparison to conventional electric arc furnaces, total CO2 emissions can also be reduced by up to 30 percent per metric ton of crude steel. Guilin Pinggang is privately owned and located in Pingle near Guilin city in Guangxi Province. The enterprise has an annual production capacity of 1.25 million tonnes and produces rebars, wire and other steel elements for the construction industry. Source - Strategic Research Institute
Tata Steel Suports Renovation of Seabird Nesting Site in Wales The UK’s largest steelmaker Tata Steel is giving time and material to help renovate safe nesting sites for the common tern at its site in Shotton in North Wales. The Tata Steel Nature Reserve is home to one of the UK’s biggest common tern colonies and today 130 tonnes of shingle was moved from the shore on to the nesting islands by helicopter. The project, funded by Welsh Government, will safeguard the colony for years to come. Tata Steel apprentices have given their time to help clear the nesting islands and spread the newly dropped shingle, while the company has also donated steel which has been processed and used as a base for the stone. The former British Steel company created the first safe nesting area for the common terns of the Dee Estuary in 1970 with the construction of a small raft on the cooling lagoons for the blast furnaces. It was an immediate success: 12 pairs nested and 17 chicks fledged. Since then more than 20,000 common tern chicks have hatched and flown from the Site of Special Scientific Interest. Common terns are long-lived birds, often surviving for more than 20 years. With their normal wintering grounds on the West coast of Africa it means they can fly more than 250,000km in a lifetime, the equivalent of six times round the earth.

thyssenkrupp Digitizes Cooling Process of Coils in Hohenlimburg For shorter lead times & stronger customer focus, thyssenkrupp’s site in Hohenlimburg has digitized its shower cooling area for hot strip. The shower cooling area, where coils are cooled off before passing on to the pickling line, was integrated into the existing digital structure in 2020. This allows reducing the lead times of the hot rolled precision strip significantly. Since November 2020, the shower cooling area has existed as a digital twin, a mathematical image of the real site, and the cooling of hot strip is no longer left to chance: the system signals a coil’s readiness to be further conveyed and processed and this as a function of its temperature. The water shower cooling has several advantages over the conventional air cooling process. Quality defects like corrosion pits can be avoided by the controlled cooling process. Another important feature is that the coils are cooled down in the shower cooling area and the storage area preceding the pickling line only to the extent that is optimal for the pickling process. The basis for this, apart from the consolidation of various process data, is a self-developed mathematical model on the basis of which each individual coil knows when it reaches the optimum temperature. The globally unique method thus has two important benefits: it optimizes warehouse logistics and increases productivity in the manufacturing process. This means that it is always possible to see where a specific coil is located on the plant floor. The forklift is also integrated in real time. With the digitization, the precision steel specialist follows the path toward a fully connected steelworks and creates the conditions for giving customers extensive scope of action in the future. Under the catchword “Rolling as a service“, customers are already today involved in determining what’s next up on the Hohenlimburg site’s rolling program. Short lead times are essential to ensure that this business model also works without large inventories. The digital warehouse management system also meets with a positive response from the employees. It enables forklift drivers to spot or deposit coils more quickly and provides information about where the load can be deposited safely, a benefit for occupational safety and health. It starts with the optimization of logistics processes and ends with controlling, where information on material stocks, turnover rates and tied up capital can be easily retrieved.

Cleveland Cliffs chairman, President & Chief Executive Officer Mr Lourenco Goncalves said “Without question, 2020 was the most transformational year in our company's 173 year history. We completed two seminal acquisitions, AK Steel and ArcelorMittal USA that transformed us from an iron ore miner into the largest flat rolled steelmaker in North America. We also completed our Toledo direct reduction plant, which began operations in the fourth quarter. We were able to accomplish all of this while navigating through the COVID-19 pandemic and taking action to preserve the health and safety of our workforce and our company for the long-term.” 2020 Consolidated Results Consolidated revenues were USD 5.4 billion, compared to the prior year’s revenues of USD 2.0 billion. Company recorded a net loss of USD 81 million, which included USD 186 million of acquisition related, amortization of inventory step-up and severance costs. This compares to 2019 net income of USD 293 million, which included USD 9 million of acquisition-related and severance costs. Adjusted EBITDA was USD 353 million, compared to USD 525 million in 2019. Regarding business outlook, Mr Goncalves said, “We expect the continuation of the favourable market environment we are in now, and an increasingly positive impact of the well-known lagged pricing mechanisms common in our steel sales. With the contribution of steel sales from Cleveland-Cliffs Steel LLC for a full quarter, we expect first-quarter 2021 steel product shipments of approximately 4 million net tons, and a significant improvement in first-quarter 2021 Adjusted EBITDA from the fourth quarter of 2020. Additionally positive, our second-quarter 2021 profitability should be enhanced even further by the impact of our initial sales of HBI to outside clients.” Cleveland Cliffs Inc is the largest flat-rolled steel producer in North America.

IG Metall Strike for 4% Pay Increase in German Steel Industry Germany's largest trade union IG Metall has called on workers in German iron and steel industry to stage warning strikes to raise pressure on employers to agree to a 4% wage increase, reduced working hours and re-training to safeguard jobs. IG Metall district manager in North Rhine-Westphalia Mr Knut Giesler had recently said “In the fourth round of negotiations, the employers did not make any specific and binding proposals on the topics of job security, future collective agreements and pay. Therefore, a labor dispute is now inevitable after the end of the peace obligation. Our planning is complete. From March 2nd, we will call on employees in North Rhine-Westphalia to go on warning strikes.” IG Metall Chairman Mr Joerg Hofmann told Reuters "Employers and the labour union last year agreed to not raise wages and instead focus on safeguarding jobs during the crisis. We said let's put in a moratorium and you will secure employment in return. But now, what we have to say is that we already have 120,000 fewer jobs in the sector. Employers are using the COVID-19 pandemic as a pretext for job cuts. There has been a V-shaped recovery during the crisis in the main industries since the summer break. This means orders recovered significantly by the end of the year. That's why it is necessary to put the topics of job security, shaping the future and stabilising income on the agenda. Employers have a responsibility to do their part now by keeping purchasing power stable. In 2020 there was no tariff increase. We need them this year because otherwise the workers will suffer a loss in real wages.” In addition to the 4% pay hike, IG Metall wants to define a framework for future collective agreements at company level which should secure employment in the transition to electric mobility and digitisation through re-training.

Nippon Steel to Speed up Decarbonisation of Steel Making World’s No 3 steelmaker Nippon Steel will boost research and development spending to speed decarbonisation in steelmaking. Nippon Steel Executive Vice President Mr Katsuhiro Miyamoto told Reuters in an interview “Nippon Steel will step up development of hydrogen use in iron ore reduction, carbon capture and storage technology, and ways to make high end steel in electric furnaces. We will input considerable resource into R&D on decarbonisation technology. The government, however, will need to develop a strategy to provide cheap carbon free electricity. Further details will be laid out in March.” Japanese steelmakers account for 14% of Japan’s carbon emissions. Nippon Steel and peers have been working together to develop iron ore reduction technology that uses hydrogen in blast furnaces to cut CO2 emissions by 30% by 2030. But Japan’s pledge in October to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 has forced the Japanese steel industry to look for ways to accelerate its shift towards carbon-free steel. The Paris Agreement on climate change in 2015 requires reduction of global greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2050 to 2070. For most steelmakers, steel is inherently green but energy intensive steel industry accounts for 7-9% of global carbon dioxide emission. Calls are intensifying to reduce its emissions and become completely climate neutral in just a few decades ie by 2050. Is it possible, or is the steel industry an oil tanker, too slow and too large to change course in time as sector needs huge investment to enable it to transition? Steel is one of the economic sectors that are the hardest to decarbonize, due to tough global competition, the dependence of the production process on carbon, and the need for new breakthrough technologies with high abatement cost and long investment cycles. An Innovative and climate-neutral steel comes with higher production cost compared to business as usual and faces several other systemic barriers such as a lack of infrastructure, weak trust in long-term climate policy, technical uncertainties, and immature market knowledge. The prescribed climate policy solution for reducing emissions has been the pricing of carbon on a free carbon market but carbon pricing alone cannot alleviate all of these disadvantages. The blast furnace is the largest emission source in the steel value chain and further efficiency potentials are small. Net-zero emissions means the steel industry must replace current primary production processes, namely the blast furnace route, with low or preferably zero emission production processes. Set of technologies have been identified and a variety of research projects aims to develop these breakthrough technologies. Most of these projects follow one of two distinct strategies either using renewable fuels hydrogen, electricity, biomass or end-of-pipe capturing of CO2. Keeping the blast furnace means that in order to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions CCS must be installed and a part of the coal injection needs to be done with biogenic carbon with a net-zero carbon footprint BF CCS/CCU; BF Bio, BF BioCCS. In theory it is possible to reach zero emission with a blast furnace by using both biomasses that can replace up to 40% of coal use and complementing this with CCS on the major point sources. Instead of avoiding emitting CO2 to the air altogether, CO2 can be captured and used as a feedstock for further processing into chemicals thus replacing fossil feedstock through Carbon2Chem, Steelanol, FresMe, Carbon4PUR etc. A zero emission option for the direct reduction plant is to use renewable hydrogen. Direct reduction with natural gas complemented with an EAF has a substantially smaller carbon footprint compared to current blast furnaces. Producing secondary steel from scrap in an EAF is substantially less carbon intensive if the indirect emission from the electricity is excluded and if natural gas is replaced with a renewable heat source. Production Route BF - Emission intensity 1682, Relative emissions vs BF 100% BF CCU - Emission intensity 673-1682, Relative emissions 40-100% BF CCS - Emission intensity 673, Relative emissions 40% BF Bio - Emission intensity 1009, Relative emissions 60% BF BioCCS - Emission intensity <100, Relative emissions <6% NG-DRI - Emission intensity 1020, Relative emissions 61% EAF without fossil fuels - Emission intensity <100, Relative emissions <6% H-DRI - Emission intensity <100, Relative emissions <6% Electrowinning - Emission intensity <100, Relative emissions <6% NG-DRI Natural Gas Direct Reduction H-DRI Hydrogen Direct Reduction CCS Carbon Capture & Storage CCU Carbon Capture & Utilization Source - Strategic Research Institute
JSW Steel Ready to Pay for BPSL by March End Economic Times reported that JSW Steel has formally written to committee of creditors its intent to complete the acquisition of Bhushan Power and Steel by transferring the deal amount of INR 19,350 crore into a PNB escrow account, with conditions, bringing the four year-old resolution process a step closer to completion. CNBC TV in a separate report said that lenders will vote next week on JSW Steel’s proposal for taking over the troubled company. BPSL lenders will be voting to decide if they would be returning JSW Steel’s money in case there is an adverse order by the Supreme Court after the deal has been closed. JSW Steel has sought an indemnity cover from the banks in case the order in the BPSL case is unfavourable to it. JSW’s readiness to pay is a change from an earlier stance. In June, after the Covid-19 pandemic, it had sought flexibility in payment schedule for its bid, but lenders had rejected the demand. Between then and now, however, the fortunes of the Indian steel industry have changed. The closure of BPSL would add about 3 million tonnes capacity to JSW Steel’s existing 18 million tonnes.

British Business Bank Removes Guarantee on Loans to Greensill Sky News reported that Britain’s state owned business bank has stripped Greensill Capital of a government guarantee on loans to Mr Sanjeev Gupta’s empire, after deciding it had breached the terms of pandemic lending programmes. British Business Bank has informed Greensill that it is removing a taxpayer guarantee following an investigation into the UK based fintech company's compliance with the rules of the Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme. City sources said that the accountancy firm EY and the law firm Hogan Lovells had been drafted in by the government to assess whether Greensill was in breach of the CLBILS rules. One banking insider said the advisers had concluded in recent days that the terms had been breached in relation to areas such as the adequacy of the security taken by Greensill over assets owned by GFG Alliance, the network of companies headed by Mr Gupta. Under the schemes introduced early in the COVID-19 crisis by Mr Rishi Sunak, the chancellor, taxpayers guarantee 80% of the value of the loan, although borrowers remain fully liable for the debt. The CLBILS programme has been extended until the end of the month, and Mr Sunak plans to set out further details of a successor scheme in his Budget this week. Greensill has raised billions of dollars in equity from shareholders including SoftBank's Vision Fund, which has backed prominent tech companies including Uber Technologies, WeWork and the British augmented reality start-up Improbable. General Atlantic, the private equity firm, is also an investor. Greensill helps clients manage cash by paying their suppliers early in return for a discount. According to company data, it provided more than USD 143 billion to more than 10 million customers and suppliers in 2020. It describes itself as the world's leading non-bank provider of supply chain finance. It has also emerged that Greensill is in talks about USD 100 million sale of its operating business to Apollo Global Management, with the alternative outcome a possible administration handled by Grant Thornton.
