greentec steel at the site in Donawitz
Construction is also progressing at the Donawitz site. Extensive structural, technical, and infrastructural measures were required to build the EAF facility. To make room for the EAF facility, inactive equipment was first dismantled, some of the industrial buildings were partially demolished, and large open storage areas for operating supplies were relocated.
Key project milestones include the construction of the EAF hall, the expansion of the power supply with the 220-kV connection—including a new substation and cable route to the EAF—and the construction of a new scrap yard.
In Donawitz, all scrap is delivered by rail car. The new scrap yard protects this important raw material from the elements and enables the sorting of scrap by type, efficient unloading and handling, and the expansion of automation capabilities in the future.
