environments which exhibited variations in the configuration of their constituents (suppliers, customers, research agencies, government, and competitors) influenced the rate at which the steel industries of Japan and the U.S. adopted a single technique, oxygen steelmaking (BOF) [12]. Roger Miller used a similar approach to compare the speed with which new techniques pread among European and Ame...

Electric arc furnaces (EAFs) are widely used in steelmaking and in smelting of nonferrous metals. The EAF is the central process of the so-called mini-mills, which produce steel mainly from scrap. Typical EAFs operate at power levels from 10MW to 100MW. The power level is directly related to production throughput, so it is important to control the EAF at the highest possible average power with ...

The creation of a market for steel produced by less carbon-intensive production processes, here called ‘green steel’, has been identified as means supporting the introduction breakthrough emission reduction technologies into production. However, numerous details remain under-explored, including exactly what ‘green’ entails in context steelmaking, likely competitiveness green products domestic a...

The in-plant recycling routes of several side streams produced in Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steelmaking remain under-explored. In article 2100472, Abdelrahim and co-workers characterize eight use them to produce seven different briquettes. Briquettes are assessed for their suitability be used EAF through a series mechanical high-temperature tests, reflecting intended use.
