Background

History

Formation

On April 19, 1917, H.J.E. Wenckebach presented his plans which included the establishment of three blast furnaces, a coking plant, and plants for utilizing the by products of the process (coking gas, and slag). In May 1917 a Comité voor oprichting van een hoogovenstaal- en walswerk in Nederland (Committee for establishing blast furnaces and steel rolling mill in the Netherlands) was set up, with the aim of creating a steel works and rolling mills.[1] The plan received support from the large industrial concerns and capitalists of the Netherlands, including Stork, Royal Dutch Shell, Steenkolen Handels-Vereeniging (SHV) and Philips; Hendrikus Colijn, Frits Fentener van Vlissingen, and J. Muysken. Additionally the Dutch state and the city of Amsterdam contributed 7.5 million and 5 million of the 30 million Dutch guilders required to capitalize the project.[2]

On September 20, 1918 the company Koninklijke Nederlandsche Hoogovens en Staalfabrieken N.V. (KNHS) was created in The Hague. Wenckenbach was the Director, Geldolph Adriaan Kessler the secretary, and A.H. Ingen Housz the company's assignee.[1] One of the motivations for the creation of a steelworks was to remove the reliance on imported steel.[2][3] The country's resources of coal and iron ore were also limited, so IJmuiden was chosen over sites at Rotterdam and Moerdijk for being more suitable for both import and export by sea.[2]

By 1924 the first blast furnace, casting hall, coke plant, and an electricity generating plant powered by waste gases from the coke ovens and blast furnaces. The second of two blast furnaces begun in 1919 became operational in 1926.[4] A third blast furnace started operation in 1930.[5]

During the 1930s the plant was further developed, turning from raw iron production to steel production using open hearth furnaces.[6] By 1956 the plant had six furnaces, each of 190t capacity.[7]

1945-1999

After the end of World War II reconstruction of the Netherlands began; as part of this process the steelworks was invested in. A separate company, Breedband NV, was established 19 June 1950, receiving funding from both the state and the United States Marshall Plan. The project introduced a hot and cold rolling mills for thin plate, of 60 and 75 thousand tonnes per year capacity respectively, and a galvanising line. All three installations were operating by the end of 1953.[3]

During the 1950s and 1960s the facilities were extended; the plant's first oxy-steel converted was put into operation in 1958.[8] The sixth blast furnace began operation in 1967, and a second oxy-steel plant in 1968. In 1969 a block mill capable of handling 45t blocks, and another hot strip mill with a capacity of over 3.5 million tonnes pa were opened.[9]

In 1972 the first two blast furnaces were decommissioned.[4] The same year (1972) the IJmuiden steelworks (Hoogovens IJmuiden BV.[10] KNHS formed its interests that were to be merged (the IJmuiden steelworks) into a company Hoogovens IJmuiden BV, "Estel is founded, 7 July 1972"</ref>) were formed into a 50:50 joint venture named Estel with Hoesch of Germany as the other partner,{{#tag:ref|In the late 1960s Hoogovens and Hoesch had planned to build a second Dutch steel plant in Rotterdam. The proposal was blocked by the Rotterdam council, having received opposition from the public and green groups.[6] who merged their Dortmund steel plant into the concern. IJmuiden with good access to seaborn raw materials was to act primarily as a raw steel supplier to the plant in Germany, which was closer to a large market for finished steel products - the steel crisis of the 1970s prevented any positive expansion and the company was disbanded in 1982 when funding arrangements for the loss making Dortmund plant could not be agreed.[11]

In the late 1990s two blast furnaces were purchased by the Indonesian steel group Gunawan Steel Group and dismantled and shipped to its development in Malaysia; Gunawan Iron and Steel. The dismantling work was carried out by a Chinese contractor which was found to be paying its 120 Chinese workers less than the Dutch minimum wage, with poor safety conditions, with 14 accidents resulting in 2 fatalities due to falls from height. The Chinese contractor was fined for breaches of safety practice, and made to improve working conditions, as well as retrospectively paying its workers 15,000 Guilders.[12][13][14][15][16]

In 1996 the company changed its official name to Koninklijke Hoogovens.[17] A new continuous caster was installed between 1998 and 2000.[18]

Corus group 1999-2007

In June 1999 British Steel plc and Hoogovens announced that they were to merge under the name "Corus", with Hoogovens forming 38.3% of the new group; the new company provisionally title 'BSKH' was then the third largest in the world, with sales of £9.4 billion.[19]

Tata Steel IJmuiden was formerly known as Koninklijke Nederlandse Hoogovens en Staalfabrieken (KNHS) until 1996 (informally Hoogovens), and then Koninklijke Hoogovens.

Tata Steel 2007-present

In 2007 Tata Steel acquired Corus and subsequently renamed it Tata Steel Europe in 2010.[20] In 2008 due to lack of demand the Corus steel group cut production by 20%; in IJmuiden one blast furnace was taken out of production.[20]

In June 2020, Tata Steel workers went on strike at IJmuiden plant to protest planned job cuts in the Netherlands. Unions reported that Tata aims to cut more than 1,000 of the 9,000 jobs at the IJmuiden plant in the Netherlands to improve the profitability of its European business.[21]

In November 2020, Swedish steelmaker SSAB was reported to be in talks with Tata Steel about potentially buying the Indian group's Dutch steel mill in IJmuiden. According to statements from SSAB, “SSAB has participated in several different discussions concerning consolidations in the European steel industry. The discussions with Tata are ongoing but no decisions have been made.”[22]

Tata aims to reduce emissions 30% by 2030 and to be carbon neutral by 2050. In 2018, the plant's HIsarna technology test installation was included in the IJmuiden production chain in line with Tata Steel's stated intentions.[23] This also started the endurance test, to demonstrate that the HIsarna installation can also produce pig iron for long consecutive periods. In addition to high process stability, it had to prove high plant availability and reliability; these objectives have been achieved. The longest run within this trajectory lasted 19 days – producing 2,000 tonnes of pig iron.[23]

Tata Steel plans to replace both blast furnaces with DRI/EAF technology by 2030[24][25]; they are currently trying to use hydrogen, but this will depend on availability (they may use gas instead).[26]

Environmental Compliance

In February 2022, the Environment Service Noordzeekanaalgebied issued the company a fine and they are currently under investation for spreading pollutants, carcinogens, and other hazardous waste in the region;[27] The plant has been emitting large amounts of graphite dust into the surrounding atmosphere, leading to "black snow" falling in nearby areas. The IJmuidar Courant also found that Tata was dumping waste from the plant into the port of IJmuiden by allegedly paying shipworkers to sweep raw materials into the water after departure from the plant's docks. [28][29]

Tata has announced several projects to reduce emissions at the IJmuiden site by 30% by 2030 and entirely by 2050; this includes the Everest project, which will capture CO2 emitted from production; the ATHOS project, which will set up a transportation network and storage hub for the captured CO2 from the first project; the Hermes project, which will explore the use of hydrogen injection in the steelmaking process and set up a hydro-powered electrolysis facility for hydrogen production; and the scaling up of HIsarna technology toe replace blast furnace capacity by 2033.[30] While these plans have been put forward, many elements are still in the early stages and it is not guaranteed that they will be put into operation as stated.
