Abstract
The evolution and some highlights of iron making in Western Europe are reported, including ideas for CO2 lean steelmaking: Introduction into the development of hot metal production in Europe, progress of the structure of reductants and ore burden materials, sintering of iron ores, evaluation of constructional features and equipment of the blast furnaces and further outlook for the European ironmaking scenario. The integrated steel works in Western Europe operate modern plants for the production of a wide variety of high grade steel products. The blast furnace/converter route will remain dominant. One main focus is set on the future CO2 trading system based on benchmarks with non reachable values as set by the European Commission.
