Abstract
At the European congress held on September 12-14, 2016 in Linz major attention was given to the prospects of iron metallurgy development. The fl ow “blast furnace – basic oxygen furnace” is expected to remain the main steelmaking process giving way to steelmaking in electrical furnaces starting from 1960s. Development of hydrogen metal lurgy and occurrence of industrial microbial fermentation of metallurgical gases with subsequent production of ethanol and other chemical products from them are forecast.
