Description:
The extension of the raw material basis for the steel making industry represents a priority nowadays, within the context of sustainable development. The issue is of utmost importance particularly now when the environment legislation sets strict dumping conditions on the one hand and, on the other hand, when huge quantities of waste, already deposited in dumps and ponds raise serious problems in terms of meeting such conditions. The paper introduces some researches on exploiting waste containing iron and carbon in steel making; this powdery and small-grain waste is to be processed into briquettes. The self-reducing briquettes can be used in steel elaboration in electric arc furnaces, replacing the scrap, which is scarce.
