Structure of the Russian export and import of steel industry products presented by results of 9 months of 2019 operation. It was shown, that the total share of pig iron, ferroalloys and semi-products (40.3%) in the ferrous metals export from Russia is practically the same as the share of rolled products and steel pipes (39.4%), whereas the shares in the import structure were 7.7 and 75% accordingly. The share the far abroad countries in the Russian export and import of finished steel products (in natural terms) accounted for 80.6 and 28.7% accordingly, while the share of CIS countries – 19.4 and 71.3% accordingly. For 9 months of 2019 the Russian export of semi-products declined by 10.9% comparing with the analogue period of 2018 and accounted for 10.9 m tons. 54.6% of the total export shipping of semi-products were directed to Mexico, Turkey, Egypt and Taiwan. Within the nearest years the Russian export of semi-products and billets, in particular, will be effected by the further development of the semi-products production in in the countries of Middle East, Turkey, Vietnam and India. The domestic market remained to be more attractive for many Russian companies. For the 9 months of 2019, export of long and flat products accounted for 3 and 5.7 m tons accordingly, declining comparing with the analogue period of the previous year by 11 and 15.6% accordingly. Import of long and flat products decreased by 12 and 0.5%, accounting for 1.0 and 2.9 m tons accordingly. By the results of 9 months of 2019, import declined and export shipping of coated sheet increased. Taking into account the expansion of steel grades assortment by Russian plants, increase of capacities for production of sheet with different coatings, this tendency is likely to remain.

Analysis of main indices of world steel industry presented, as well as those of some countries and of Russia for 2017– 2018. Dynamics and structure of production, consumption, export and import of main kinds of Russian steel industry products by results of 2018. In 2018 growth of world consumption amounted to near 80 Mt to the level of 2017, the main input made by Asian region. Its share amounted to near 90% of the growth, mainly by China. Excluding China, the Asian region amounted to 13% of the growth. Russia takes the 7th place in the world rating by steel consumption in 2018, by consumption per capita – the 16th position. In 2018 in Russia, 71.8 Mt of steel were produced, amounting to 6th place in the world rating. By results of 2018 Russian plants increased production of steel, finished rolled products and steel pipes comparing with 2017. The volumes of world trading by steel products keep growing. The world export by volume is estimated as 454.5 Mt. Countries with the biggest share of steel export of production volume presented. By the results of 2018 the steel industry of Russia is still export-oriented industry and keeps the 5th position among countries with the highest share of steel products export in the production and the 3rd place by the volumes of export shipping. During the last years the Russia’ external trade by ferrous metals is characterized by increase of export and import volumes. Structure of Russian finished rolled products export and import presented, as well as geography of supplies. The share of import rolled products in the domestic consumption amounted to about 14%. Main countries – net exporters and net importers of steel products presented. Russia being a net importer on the whole, takes the 3rd position by volumes. However, during several years by some groups of rolled products, Russia is a net importer. The domestic market is surely a key one for Russian plants. Howeve, the Russian plant not always manage to compete with cheaper import. Besides, some kinds of products are produced in insufficient volumes.

Lean duplex stainless steels have similar corrosion and better mechanical properties than the austenitic grades, which ensure their extensive spreading in industrial applications as a substitute of austenitic grades. In the construction of liquid tanks, however, it is often necessary to weld such steels with a range of fittings which are commonly fabricated with austenitic stainless steel grades. Therefore, this paper examines dissimilar welded joints between LDX 2101 (or X2CrMnNiN22-5-2) lean duplex stainless steels plates and austenitic stainless steel pipes, carried out by different arc welding processes. The investigation focuses on the correlation between the welding procedures and the microstructural and mechanical properties of the welded joints.

The year 1873 marked the zenith of the German free-trade movement, which had been gathering impact since 1818 when Prussia first established a tariff along free-trading lines. Promulgated at the peak of prosperity, the law of 1873 abolished immediately the duties on pig iron, raw steel, and ships, but, as a concession to the protectionists, only reduced the rates on other iron products and provided for their repeal on January 1, 1877. Despite the dissatisfaction of many free-traders, the latter provision opened the door for the repeal of other protective rates. Germany thus stood at the threshold of complete free trade.

Over the past decades, the world’s steel industry has implemented two areas of its development: construction and commissioning of modern mini-plants; modernization of enterprises with a full metallurgical cycle. Despite a number of advantages of mini-plants, the global growth of steel production since 2000 has been largely due to the construction and commissioning of Converter production in China. The article presents data on the development and restructuring of metallurgical enterprises with a full cycle, primarily in the conditions of ferrous metallurgy of the CIS and former USSR. The main technological equipment for metallurgical processing, including the production of iron, steel, blanks, finished products, as well as the volume of production per year for the leading enterprises of the CIS and the former USSR was described in the article.It is also noted that in connection with the annual re-equipment of the production capacity of the main workshops in the steel industry of the former USSR, the training of highly qualified engineers and workers was the most important task of the state.

AbstractConsiderable progress in developing flat-rolled steel grades has been made by the Chinese steel industry over the recent two decades. The increasing demand for high-performance products to be used in infrastructural projects as well as in production of consumer and capital goods has been driving this development until today. The installation of state-of-the-art steel making and rolling facilities has provided the possibility of processing the most advanced steel grades. The production of high-performance steel grades relies on specific alloying elements of which molybdenum is one of the most powerful. China is nearly self-sufficient in molybdenum supplies. This paper highlights the potential and advantages of molybdenum alloying over the entire range of flat-rolled steel products. Specific aspects of steel property improvement with respect to particular applications are indicated.

Measures aimed at the transition of the global iron and steel industry to carbon neutrality by 2050 or beyond are in the focus of scientific, business, and political circles of many countries. If this target is to be attained, it is important to understand how demand for ferrous metals will be evolving, and when and to what extent the sector can be modernized on the low carbon basis. The paper explores the possibility and conditions for the full-scale decarbonization of the global iron and steel sector, looks into current trends in the production of key products of steel industry and related greenhouse gas emissions; estimates the contributions of all the factors behind these trends in 1900‒2019. By analyzing the relations between the economic growth and ferrous metals consumption as “services‒materials stock‒materials flow‒environment” model, the paper shows that a mechanical extrapolation of the earlier trends to 2050 and beyond may result in erroneous conclusions about the sector’s development perspectives. The factors that will eventually ensure the decoupling, i.e. a dramatic weakening or a complete rupture of the connection between economic growth and steel demand. The paper provides an analysis of the iron and steel sector decarbonization perspectives and estimates the scale and intensity of the forthcoming technological change.
