  • Location: Pivdenne Hwy, 72, Zaporizhzhia, Zaporiz'ka oblast, Ukraine, 69061
  • Coordinates (WGS 84): 47.868380, 35.161773 (exact)

Background

Zaporizhstal works closely with Zaporizhzhia Coke Plant and Zaporizhogneupor, which are both controlled by Metinvest Holding.[1] Zaporizhzhia Coke Plant (Запорожкокс, Russian) supplies coke to Zaporizhstal.[2]

The plant was mothballed in March 2022 due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[3] At the end of March, rolling shop resumed operations but steel production remained suspended.[4] As of August 2022, the plant was operating at 50% capacity including steel-making.[5][6][7] The plant resumed iron-making operations with the blast furnaces #3 and #4 in April 2022.[8] Blast furnace #2 restarted in March 2023.[9] As of December 2023, the plant is operating at 70% capacity.[10]

New OHF proposal

A new 3200 TTPA BOF was planned to replace some of the existing OHFs by 2022.[11][12][13][14]
