14^th European Electric Arc Furnace Con­fer­ence (EEC)

(together with EMECR 2026)

The European Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) Con­fer­ence is an important event in the steel industry that focuses on the tech­no­lo­gies, innov­a­tions, and devel­op­ments sur­rounding electric arc furnaces. Electric arc furnaces are a key part of the steel pro­duc­tion process, using elec­tri­city to melt scrap steel and produce new steel. The con­fer­ence gathers pro­fes­sionals, industry leaders, and researchers from the steel and metal­lurgy sectors to discuss the latest trends, share know­ledge, and explore ways to improve energy effi­ciency, sus­tain­ab­ility, and safety in EAF oper­a­tions.

ESSC & DUPLEX will focus on all the aspects of development, production technology (hot and cold rolling, heat treatment, etc.), welding, corrosion and applications of stainless steels and duplex stainless steels and it addresses delegates with both academic and industrial backgrounds. The results shall contribute to the advancement of existing and potential applications and will help to guide future development. The event will bring together developers, designers, manufacturers and users of stainless steel from industry and academia and will compare the present and future needs to satisfy these demands now or in the future.

Short and medium term perspectives of European stainless steel flat, long products, forgings and castings will be widely discussed during the Stainless Steel Market Outlook session. It is expected the presence of speakers representing the most important European stainless steel associations and reports coming from the big stainless steel companies.

5^th Inter­na­tional Con­fer­ence on Ingot Casting, Rolling and Forging (ICRF)

The purpose of ICRF is to provide a forum for present­a­tions on metal­lur­gical and tech­no­lo­gical devel­op­ments for ingot casting and pro­cessing, with areas of interest ranging from vacuum and remelt pro­cessing, through casting and refract­ories, forging and rolling, to heat treating and quality eval­u­ation.  Addi­tional topics include mod­el­ling, which has seen wide­spread applic­a­tion to all areas of devel­op­ment and pro­duc­tion, as well as the rise of Digit­al­iz­a­tion/Industry 4.0, which has started to trans­form the industry.

7^th International Conference on Thermomechanical Processing of Steel (TMP)

ThermoMechanical Processing (TMP) is a well-established and strategic approach for enhancing and controlling the mechanical properties of metallic materials. By combining deformation and heat treatment, TMP enables the optimization of microstructural features, allowing metals to meet the demanding requirements of modern mechanical and structural applications. The TMP 2026 Conference continues this tradition, while also addressing today's pressing challenges such as sustainability, digitalization, and the development of new material systems.

The 6^th International Conference on Energy Material and Energy Technology will be held from 10-12 November 2026 in Nanchang, China.

The provision of sufficient and reliable energy to meet the demands of rapidly developing technologies in society is a great challenge facing the world today. The development and application of new materials play a central role in almost most energy technologies, including efficient energy production, storage, conversion and utilization. This conference covers the topics of energy harvesting and conversion, storage technologies, and related energy material properties and applications, aiming to build an international platform for scholars, scientists, engineers and students to present and discuss the latest research results, and to stimulate more new ideas about energy materials and energy technologies.
