The country's goal of achieving a 15% share of steel production in the EAF by 2025 looks somewhat optimistic

The increase in the indicator was facilitated by the improvement in demand for steel and a low base of comparison

More and more factories are completing annual overhauls of blast furnaces

During the year, Chinese steelmakers produced 36 million tons of stainless steel

Emissions of sulfur dioxide per ton of steel were 0.21 kg/t, smoke and dust – 0.25 kg/t, nitrogen oxide – 0.42 kg/t

The company became the second in China to operate on Energiron DRI technology

This figure is higher than the target set by Beijing for last year
