Outokumpu to Invest in Biocoke & Biomethane Plant in Finland

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
3 Oct, 2022, 6:18 am

Helsinki Finland headquartered stainless steel giant Outokumpu plans a significant investment in a biocoke and biomethane plant, aiming at reduce climate emissions and increasing self-sufficiency in energy in Finland. As a part of its ambitious climate actions, Outokumpu is planning an investment in a biocoke and biomethane plant at its stainless-steel production site in Tornio in Finland. This large-scale biocoke project has now proceeded to a phase where Outokumpu is applying for investment support totalling EUR 25 million. If realized, this project would significantly increase self-sufficiency in energy in Finland and it also has the potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 200,000 tonnes per year. This project supports significantly the Finnish and European energy and climate targets for 2030.

The new biocoke and biomethane plant would show that it is possible to produce a new raw material from the forest industry waste that is currently burned for low-efficient energy creation purposes. The new raw material, which is called biocoke, could replace the coke that it currently imports and that is used as reductant in Outokumpu’s ferrochrome production process.

Outokumpu’s biocoke project is a result of the research done in the Towards Carbon Neutral Metals or TOCANEM program, financed by Business Finland. The biocoke project would, if realized, be one of the first new significant industrial investments to reduce carbon dioxide emissions as a result of the TOCANEM program. In the TOCANEM research program, the metal industry and research organizations have together researched possibilities to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the production of steel and other metals.

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
3 Oct, 2022, 6:20 am

Sweden’s leading steel maker SSAB announced that Turkish crane manufacturer Hidrokon is using SSAB’s Strenx high-strength steel to make its crane components lighter, safer and more durable. Hidrokon uses Strenx 700 E, Strenx 700MC Plus, Strenx 960 E, Strenx 960MC, Strenx 960 Plus and Strenx 1100 E steel across its various product ranges. Strenx steel is used to make parts including booms, outriggers and, for some crane models, the upper chassis

Since mobile cranes are mounted on vehicles, the weight of the crane and the capacity of the carrier vehicle are decisive factors for Hidrokon. With Strenx steel lighter structure is placed on a vehicle with higher lifting capacity. Upgrading from mild steel to Strenx high-strength steel has significantly increased the reliability of his company’s products and, when Strenx products are combined with Hidrokon engineering, the company is able to produce high-quality cranes without any safety concerns.

Hidrokon designs and manufactures four principal crane product groups.

The first is the knuckle boom crane, its flagship design that continues to be in great demand mainly on the domestic market.

The second is the loader crane series, developed both for the European and global markets.

The third is the telescopic boom crane, which is used for applications on vehicles, mainly in the Far East and Eastern European markets.

The last product category is marine cranes that are used in applications such as fish farming and fishing net collection.

Other Hidrokon product ranges include heavy recovery trucks and aerial lifting platforms. In addition, the company has undertaken custom projects in Turkey, such as self-propelled telescopic cranes and numerous defense industry projects, and it has also built catenary maintenance vehicles and fire trucks for foreign customers.

Located in Konya in the Anatolian region of Turkey, Hidrokon was founded in 1993 as a joint venture between three business partners but has operated as a family business since 1997. These days, Mr Memis Kütükcü runs the company alongside his son Mr Yildirim Esat Kütükcü and daughter Ms Sevde Kütükcü Aydin.

TRA Changes Recommendations on AD Duty on Chinese Rebar

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
3 Oct, 2022, 6:31 am

In a change to its interim conclusions, the UK’s Trade Remedies Authority has proposed that measures on imports of rebars from China be kept. Although the TRA’s initial findings in its statement of Essential Facts indicated that keeping the measure could result in supply issues for HFP Rebar, the TRA has considered import data and economic forecasts which have become available since the publication of the SEF, and responses to the SEF received from case participants, and now propose to change its recommendation. The Trade Remedies Authority plans to recommend that existing measures that have been in place since 2016 on imports of High Fatigue Performance Steel Concrete Reinforcement Bars from China be extended.

Following publication of its interim findings, the TRA considered additional submissions from case parties and new import data. This indicated that the falling levels of imports from Russia and Belarus were being compensated for by rising imports from other countries. In addition, forecasts for the UK economy have declined since the SEF analysis was conducted so the TRA expect demand from the UK construction industry to grow less rapidly. Taking this additional data into account, the TRA now recommends extending the measure on HFP Rebar imports.

Earlier, as part of its transition review into anti-dumping measures on HFP Rebar, the TRA conducted an Economic Interest Test which considered a range of factors, including the impact of maintaining or revoking the measure on UK producers and consumers. The TRA’s investigation analysis indicated that falling imports from Russia and Belarus could cause significant issues to the supply chain and have a damaging effect on the UK’s construction industry. Therefore the TRA concluded that extending the measure would not be in the overall economic interest of the UK.

HFP Rebar, also known as reinforcement steel and reinforcing steel, is typically used in the construction industry to reinforce concrete and masonry structures to strengthen and hold the concrete in tension.

Jingye Seeks Government Support to Scunthorpe BF’s Operational

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
3 Oct, 2022, 6:45 am

Sky News has reported that Jingye Group has indicated that British Steel's two blast furnaces will not be commercially viable without hundreds of millions of pounds of taxpayer support and is seeking an urgent package of financial support from taxpayers amid renewed fears for thousands of industrial jobs in the north of England. The report said “While the precise scale of the support being sought by the Chinese industrial group is unclear, insiders suggested that it would need hundreds of millions of pounds to keep the Scunthorpe blast furnaces operational. It is also unclear whether any financial subsidy would be in the form of a loan or grant.”

The report quoted an insider as saying that Jingye is prepared to make thousands of people redundant if ministers rejected its request and would then plan to import steel from China to roll at British Steel's UK sites

British Steel had been formed in 2016 when Tata Steel sold the business for GBP 1 to investment firm Greybull Capital. British Steel, which is headquartered in Scunthorpe in north Lincolnshire, employs about 4,000 people, with thousands more jobs in its supply chain dependent upon the company. Jingye Group had bought British Steel out of insolvency in 2020 for GBP 50 million. As part of the deal that secured ownership of British Steel for Jingye, the Chinese group said it would invest GBP 1.2 billion in modernizing the business during the following decade.

Tata Steel, which owns the vast Port Talbot steelworks in Wales, remains Britain's biggest steel producer. It, too, has sought government support in recent months, with the Financial Times reporting in July that the Indian-owned group was seeking GBP 1.5 billion of taxpayer funding to help it decarbonize its operations.

Europe largest steelmaker ArcelorMittal has confirmed to S&P Global Commodity Insights that it has gone ahead with its plan to temporarily shut down some of its blast furnaces in France, Poland, Spain and Germany as announced in September, due to the challenging European steel market. ArcelorMittal told S&P Global that it has not put restart dates on any of the assets, as the restart will be dictated by market conditions.

-------

Spain

On September 29, ArcelorMittal idled Blast Furnace A at its 4.5 million tonne per year Gijon plant in Spain, after 1 September announcement of closure due to strong competition from imports and weak demand.

The move follows the steelmaker delaying the restart of its 2 million tonne per year electric-arc furnace at Sestao, Spain, after concluding maintenance in August.

German Steel Association Welcomes Electricity & Gas Price Brake

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
3 Oct, 2022, 6:50 am

German federal government announced a comprehensive package of measures to contain the energy price crisis on 29 September. German Steel Federation W Stahl President Mr Hans Jürgen Kerkhoff said “The announced brake on energy prices, including industry, is an important step in the right direction. The steel industry and the steel-based value chains face intense international competition. They are under existential pressure due to the exploding prices for electricity and gas. Now it's all about speed and effectiveness. It is about bridging the crisis and preventing serious damage to the industrial base.”

The Federal Government wants to use a 200 billion euro package financed by the Economic Stabilization Fund to alleviate the consequences of the drastically increased energy prices for business and private consumers. In addition to direct support, the planned "economic defense shield against the consequences of the Russian war of aggression" also includes an electricity and gas price brake. The federal government wants to do without the controversial gas levy. Important branches of industry would welcome the plans, but they urged that they be implemented quickly and decisively.

Extrapolated for the year as a whole, the additional costs for electricity and gas in steel companies in Germany are currently around 10 billion euros compared to the beginning of the previous year. This is around a quarter of the turnover that the industry has achieved on average in recent years.

Spanish scrap prices retreat more than expected
452 Views

Spanish scrap prices are continuing the downtrend started at the beginning of September, Kallanish learns from local market sources. The month started with a price of almost €450/tonne ($439.8/t) for new grade E8 and progressively decreased to end down €55/t on Friday.

“Prices have retreated after the August high by more than expected. Price deceleration is set to continue also in the first week of October as values remain impacted by softening domestic demand and production cuts at certain large mills,” one source comments. "However, the situation could be reversed, driven by movements in the international market, mainly if the latest, higher Turkish purchase prices are confirmed.”

Spanish scrap demand remains weak, with mills buying small tonnages of material to make use of an uptick in billet and rebar export offers, another source says.

“The domestic market situation looks depressed, so mills see a good opportunity in exporting rebar and billet, although shipping small volumes,” says a market participant. “Producers, however, say that, currently, their long steel prices are not very competitive and the gap with other markets will soon widen as a result of rising production costs.”

New E8 quality in the domestic Spanish market is now offered at €395/t delivered. E40 and demolition quality grade (E3) are at €360/t and €335/t delivered, respectively. E1 quality is delivered at €285-290/t.

Sentiments Softening in Ship Recycling Market

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
4 Oct, 2022, 6:08 am

World's leading cash buyer of ships for recycling GMS said that “Sentiments have softened across sub-continent markets once again last week, as buyers appear increasingly reluctant to commit on fresh tonnage whilst fundamentals remain so shaky, especially as the markets have witnessed across the last couple of weeks, where currencies and steel plate prices took turns in tumbling. The Pakistani Rupee has breached historical lows and despite the odd flash of appreciation, has given Gadani Buyers extreme discomfort over the course of a torturous year of monumental declines.”

GMS said “Bangladesh, likewise, has suffered a currency calamity of its own, coupled with declining steel plate prices and increased limits on establishing fresh LCs due to a dire shortage of US Dollars in the country, most Chattogram Buyers are holding back or simply unable & unwilling to offer at all on any of the freshly proposed units.”

GMS said “India has lost about USD 80 per LDT on steel prices over the last several weeks and despite gaining a marginal USD 5 per tonne last week, remains under pressure as the lowest placed of all sub-continent markets once again. The Indian Rupee has also crossed the psychologically worrying INR 80 mark, leaving Alang Buyers as worriedly cautious as their competitors.”

GMS also said “Finally, the Turkish market remains depressed and unchanged for yet another week, as there are no units available to this market and at these current levels most owners & cash buyers wouldn’t commit their units to Aliaga Buyers anyways.”

GMS concluded that “The supply of tonnage in the sub-continent had started to marginally improve but remains relatively strained as all freight sectors continue to perform, leaving demo markets starved of vessels once again. Prices therefore remain stranded below USD 600 per LDT for another week with little chance of crossing that psychological barrier any time soon. The tendency indeed seems to suggest that levels will cool off again, perhaps down to the low USD 550s in worrying signs for the recycling markets once again.”

GMS Price Assessment - India/Bangladesh/Pakistan – Week 39 Unchanged

Russian steel giant Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works has adopted an updated Environmental Program. According to the document, the company's investments in environmental protection activities in the current year will amount to 26,847 million rubles. The main investments will be related to the construction of new environmental facilities in the coke production of PJSC MMK as part of its comprehensive reconstruction, including the construction of a coke oven battery No. 12, as well as the reconstruction of a biochemical plant and a shop for capturing and processing chemical products. In total, about 14 billion rubles will be allocated to these facilities.

The environmental program for 2022 provides for the implementation of 29 measures to protect atmospheric air in all key areas of the plant. The total investment in this area will exceed 9 billion rubles. Projects have already been implemented for the reconstruction of dust and gas collection plants and gas exhaust tracts of converters No 1, 2 and 3, as well as the pig iron overflow department of the oxygen-converter shop; a project for the reconstruction of gas cleaning and gas exhaust tracts of electric arc furnaces in an electric steel-smelting shop. The implementation of all planned activities will reduce gross emissions of pollutants by six thousand tons per year and reduce the value of the complex index of air pollution (KIZA) of Magnitogorsk to the level of 5.4 units.

Also this year, eight projects are planned aimed at reducing water consumption and reducing pollutant discharges. Their implementation will reduce discharges by 600 tons due to zero discharges into the Magnitogorsk reservoir and a reduction in discharges from the Limestone Pit. At the same time, water consumption from the Magnitogorsk reservoir is planned to be limited to no more than 122.46 million cubic meters per year. Stocking activities will continue: in 2022, 30,000 juvenile grass carp and 50,000 silver carp will be released.

Among other areas of the Environmental Program are measures to reduce and prevent the impact of industrial waste on the environment, as well as land reclamation and landscaping. The key event in this direction will be the liquidation of the Eastern Quarry of Magnitnaya Mountain with the restoration of disturbed lands on an area of more than 100 hectares. 1.2 billion rubles will be allocated for these purposes. 826 trees and 4,449 shrubs will be planted to restore the landscape and greenery on the territory of PJSC MMK, and another 1,915 different plants will be planted in the city.

For the full FY22, Hiap Teck's net profit slipped by 5% YoY to MYR 156.01 million from MYR 163.43 million despite revenue climbing by 46% to MYR 1.58 billion from MYR 1.08 billion.

Hiap Teck said it takes cognizance of the challenges and heightened volatility in steel prices and financial markets, and will continue to adopt prudent procurement strategies and inventory management to optimize financial performance and preserve balance sheet strength. Given the higher cost of inventories, Hiap Teck's management is highly cautious about the group's performance in the coming quarter as the recent decline in steel prices will have an adverse effect on the group's margins.

Hiap Teck Venture Berhad in Malaysia was incorporated in 1993. Through its successful wholly-owned subsidiaries, HTVB holds more than 25 years of extensive steel industry experience, offering one-stop steel product solutions for steel application to a diverse customer base both domestic and international in multiple sectors such as building construction, manufacturing, engineering and oil and gas.
