steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. This steelTalks will give an overview of how stainless steels are produced and the growth potential in applications. The lecture will also differentiate the different types of stainless steel and address how the industry is addressing the sustainability credentials of stainless steel.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. During this light, uplifting and practical webinar you will learn how to achieve the following: Understand the emotional impact of change; Pace yourself well through volatility and disruption; Live well with uncertainty and reduce anxiety; Build personal resilience through challenges and change; and Prioritise self-care and support your overall wellbeing.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. This talk will focus on the challenges associated with retrofitting natural gas (methane + other gases) for hydrogen/gas mix transport. Focus will be placed on structural integrity aspects, mainly on the new working conditions, the inherited aged structure and the associated damage mechanisms operating on steels and other metals. An overview of current research efforts, main barriers and the research needed will be discussed and will hopefully trigger new ideas for addressing some of these issues.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. In this talk, we will get to know about this New Normal and which are the main skills that we will need to develop in ourselves and in our teams. For this fast-changing environment, we need a new mindset in order to be agile leaders and enablers for new opportunities.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. This course will touch upon topics like energy efficiency, resource efficiency and carbon footprint of EAF steelmaking. The concepts will be defined and factors influencing the sustainability will be discussed. Finally, options to increase the sustainability of EAF steelmaking like fossil carbon substitutes, energy efficiency improvements and circular economy approaches will be presented.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. This lecture examines the basic operating principles of EAF steelmaking. How the process is a combination of electrical and chemical energy inputs, what the typical steelmaking process cycle is and the importance of understanding the total energy balance for optimising EAF performance. It looks at methods for reducing total energy requirements and the continuing drive to develop low-carbon steelmaking practices which will drive down CO2 emissions further.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. In this talk, we will get to know the role of stakeholders in the steel industry for the expansion of the floating wind industry. In this context, this lecture will share the speaker’s experience of participating in the development of floating wind substructures.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. In this talk, we will get to hear the main findings of this study on megatrends, how they are expected to shape the global socioeconomic landscape and the future of steel using sectors and the global steel industry.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. In this talk, the importance of implementing new fracture mechanics-based criteria to understand the cracking behaviour and in-service performance of high strength sheet materials will be shown. This behaviour can be addressed by understanding their fracture toughness properties. Accordingly, fracture toughness can be used to address many issues related to the cold formability of high strength steels and predict their fracture behaviour in different forming operations such as stamping, punching, hemming, deep drawing or high demanding bending.

Sustainability is on everyone’s lips these days. Everyone is talking about decarbonising the steel industry, but this does not stop at ironmaking, even though this process is currently responsible for the largest share of CO2 emissions in the steel industry. Sustainability covers more aspects than just the CO2 emissions of a process, but what does it mean for EAF steelmaking?

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. In this masterclass we will dive deep into the heart of steelmaking, focusing on the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) and Secondary Steelmaking (SS) processes. Whether you're an experienced professional looking to refine your skills or a newcomer to metallurgy, this session is designed to meet your learning needs. We'll start by laying a solid foundation to ensure you understand the basic concepts of EAF and SS processes. Our lecturer will then provide practical insights and insider knowledge of these critical steelmaking processes.

steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of interest to the global steel community. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. This presentation will address the focus on EAF technology over the past 20 years and look ahead to the next 10 years. The presentation will review technologies and tools that can assist the EAF operator in achieving operational consistency and improved productivity and product quality.
