ArcelorMittal Eisenhüttenstadt steel plant, also known as Eisenhuttenkombinat 'J.W. Stalin' (predecessor) and Eisenhüttenkombinat Ost (EKO) (predecessor), is a 2400 thousand tonnes per annum (TTPA) blast furnace (BF) and basic oxygen furnace (BOF) steel plant operating in Eisenhüttenstadt, Brandenburg, Germany.
Location
The map below shows the location of the steel plant in Eisenhüttenstadt, Brandenburg, Germany.
- Location: ArcelorMittal Eisenhüttenstadt GmbH, 15888 Eisenhüttenstadt, Germany[1]
- Coordinates (WGS 84): 52.168649, 14.623473 (exact)
Background
History
In the 1950s, a pig iron works with six blast furnaces was built in Eisenhüttenstadt, Germany.[2]
In 1984 a turnkey oxygen conversion (Linz-Donawitz process) based steelworks was installed by Austrian supplier Voestalpine.[3]
In 1997, a new blast furnace (blast furnace 5A) was built.[4]
Transition
In March 2021, ArcelorMittal announced plans to transition the Eisenhüttenstadt plant from BF-BOF production to to DRI-EAF by 2030.[5] They will add 1750ttpa of EAF capacity and a DRI plant with unknown capacity.[6]
