Abstract

Technological progress in the iron and steel industry of the U.S.S.R. is discussed with reference to energy conservation in the context of existing trends toward decreasing growth in iron and steel production, metal saving due to the improved quality and changing mix of rolled products, and changing materials input to the industry. The intensity of energy consumption for the industry as a whole, for steel making, shaping and treating and for smelting are presented, as well as major opportunities for energy conservation (increased scrap use, continuous casting, increased use of waste heat, and blast furnace improvements). Methods for comparing the energy intensity of the iron and steel industries of the U.S.S.R. and U.S.A. are described and a comparison made.
