This book describes the operations and industrial processes related to
the production of steel. The chapters cover the second part of the
iron and steelmaking process, called steelmaking, presenting the
stages of the process until obtaining the finished steel product in
different formats for distinct applications. This book reports
significant operating variables of the processes and basic operations
of the steelmaking. The chapters contain numerous solved exercises
conceptually supported on the thermodynamic and kinetic fundamentals
of the production of steel from the pig iron in the Basic Oxygen
Furnace (BOF) and the production of steel and ferroalloys in Electric
Arc Furnaces (EAF). The thermal and mechanic fundamentals of the hot
rolling operations and the mechanical fundamentals of the cold
rolling, forming, and wire drawing to obtain different steel products
are also reported. The book summarizes the strengths and uncertainties
of steel as a structural material.
