Electric Arc Furnace Electric arc furnaces are the most widely used steel furnace around the world. It can be used to smelt high-quality steel and other special steel. Advantages - capable of producing the full range of steel-grades - not dependent on a particular type of charge (scrap, sponge, iron, pig iron, hot metal), - low capital outlay, - the melting process can be programmed and automated - high efficiency and flexibility The use of EAFs allows the steel to be made from a 100% scrap meta
