Iron Steel : -  An in depth look at the Iron and Steel Industries and associated process equipment. Overview of the trends, products, markets, competitive issues specific to the Iron and Steel Industries.

As the iron and steel industry has the input within almost all manufacturing sectors, it plays an important role in the industrialization and development of a country. It is a general tendency that the production and consumption of steel are high in the developing countries and the developed countries.

The remarkable increase in casting production and exports is due to the increasing domestic demand and government policies, which encouraged many entrepreneurs to invest in the foundry sector. Turkish foundry men have managed to improve productivity with the use of new technologies and attain low production cost with high quality. The ever developing Turkish foundry industry is currently in a phase of expansion and at the same time aims production at international standards.

Many of the other technologies described in the report are in a similar state of deployment: they are used in steel industries throughout the world, including the U.S., but the wider use of some of these technologies in the U.S. would help improve competitiveness and energy efficiency.
