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.

European Con­tinuous Casting Con­fer­ence (ECCC)

The con­fer­ence provides inform­a­tion on the latest devel­op­ments in control and auto­ma­tion, advanced con­tinuous casting tech­no­lo­gies and con­tinuous improve­ment of product quality. Steel metal­lur­gical issues will be addressed as well as their physical and numer­ical sim­u­la­tion. Present­a­tions on newest devel­op­ments also in oper­ating practice and main­ten­ance will com­ple­ment the program.

Clean Tech­no­lo­gies in the Steel Industry (CTSI)

The con­fer­ence provides a forum for researchers and steel man­u­fac­turers to review recent devel­op­ments in envir­on­mental pro­tec­tion and effi­ciency in steel­making focus­sing on envir­on­mental and energy aspects in iron and steel­making.

European Slag Con­fer­ence

The purpose of the con­fer­ence is to share updated know­ledge, ideas and research related to tech­nical applic­a­tions and envir­on­mental and legal aspects for all kinds of iron and steel slags. The con­fer­ence aims to bring together all persons involved in pro­cessing, using, and mar­keting slag from private com­panies, public author­ities, research insti­tutes, uni­ver­sities, tech­nical schools and envir­on­ment safety organ­iz­a­tions.

European Stain­less Steel Congress, Science and Market (ESSC)

The Con­fer­ence 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.

Coordinated Main International Conferences

Inter­na­tional Con­fer­ence on Science and Tech­no­logy of Iron­making (ICSTI)

The con­fer­ence provides a forum for researchers and steel man­u­fac­turers to review recent devel­op­ments in envir­on­mental pro­tec­tion and effi­ciency in steel­making focus­sing on envir­on­mental and energy aspects in iron and steel­making.

Inter­na­tional Congress on Science and Tech­no­logy of Steel­making (ICS)

The Inter­­n­a­­tional Congress on the Science and Tech­no­­logy of Steel­­making provides a forum for academic and indus­trial researchers to present their work on topics in process metal­lurgy, par­t­ic­u­larly those related to steel pro­­duc­­tion, refining and casting. This meeting is aimed at creating an oppor­­tunity for a tech­n­ical exchange at an inter­­n­a­­tional level among the numerous experts involved in steel­­making

Inter­na­tional Con­fer­ence on Mod­el­ling and Sim­u­la­tion of Metal­lur­gical Pro­cesses in Steel­making (SteelSim)

The main aim of the con­­fer­­ence is to present new know­ledge and trends in the optim­­iz­a­­tion of iron and steel pro­­duc­­tion using physical or numer­­ical mod­­el­ling, sim­u­la­­tions, math­­em­at­ical models, ther­­­mo­dy­­namic cal­cu­la­­tions, statical models and related methods
