Even though Electric Arc Furnaces are so high tech these days, its easy to forget they're not a modern invention. The EAF was invented in 1889 and first used in steelmaking in 1932, but it didnt become popular until 1966. Today, EAF's produce 70% of the world's steel.

Hi Paul, we will no longer be creating molten iron from imported iron ore in our blast furnaces then converting that into steel. Instead, we will be recycling the abundance of steel scrap we have in the UK in our new electric arc furnace. One of the wonderful things about steel is it can be infinitely recycled without losing its properties. So we will no longer be reliant on other countries for the raw materials going into our furnace, we will also be drastically reducing our carbon footprint.

Temps get the dangerous jobs in the blast, and the least pay.
