Overview

Ferrous scrap markets have seen significant disruption in recent years due to the Covid pandemic, trade restrictions and Ukraine war. Numerous blast furnace-based mills, especially in Europe, are meanwhile converting to the direct reduced iron-electric arc furnace route, where DRI produced using hydrogen is sure to be supplemented with scrap as EAF feedstock. In the meantime, however, BF mills will increase their use of scrap as a fast way of reducing carbon emissions, thereby tightening the market and keeping prices elevated. India is moreover likely to require more scrap going forward, firmly cementing itself as challenger to Turkish mills for global supply.

Alongside scrap, the growth in consumption of low- or zero-emission, hydrogen-reduced ore-based metallics – direct reduced iron and hot-briquetted iron – is likely to accelerate as a result of decarbonisation. As more production capacity is built, the long-standing issue of insufficient high-grade iron ore pellet feedstock availability will need to be resolved once and for all.

Steel Scrap 2024 will aim to discuss all of these issues in detail and provide steel participants from the whole supply chain with a unique opportunity to come together and discuss global scrap, DRI and HBI market trends.

Key Questions:

• Will rising energy costs intensify competition for higher scrap grades?
• How likely are we to see more countries resort to restricting scrap exports to maintain their competitive advantage?
• How will global scrap trade evolve in 2024?
• How can DRI-EAF steel supply chains ensure sufficient high-grade raw material availability?
