  • Location: Hüttenwerke Krupp Mannesmann GmbH Ehinger Strasse 200, 47259 Duisburg, Germany[1]
  • Coordinates (WGS 84): 51.371279, 6.723310 (exact)

Background

The Hüttenwerke Krupp Mannesmann (HKM) steel plant is also listed in a Sandbag report as "Glocke Duisburg" which means "Bell Duisburg".

Transition

HKM has announced plans to shift away from BF-BOF technology in favor of DRI-EAF. They will shut down one blast furnace in 2025 and the second by 2045, replacing these by hydrogen-based alternative reduction technology.[2]
