  2. Heavy melting steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_melting_steel

    Heavy melting steel (HMS) or heavy melting scrap is a designation for recyclable steel and wrought iron. It is broken up into two major categories: HMS 1 and HMS 2, where HMS 1 does not contain galvanized and blackened steel, whereas HMS 2 does. The Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries breaks up the categories further: [1]

  3. Wrought iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrought_iron

    Wrought iron is an iron alloy with a very low carbon content (less than 0.05%) in contrast to that of cast iron (2.1% to 4.5%). It is a semi-fused mass of iron with fibrous slag inclusions (up to 2% by weight), which give it a wood-like "grain" that is visible when it is etched, rusted, or bent to failure.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Simmons

    Krawcheck commissioned a wrought iron gate for the rear of his store, which was located on King Street. However, Simmons had to create the gate out of scrap iron because the demand for iron during World War II made it impossible to acquire new iron. [1] This was the first iron gate that Simmons ever crafted and delivered to a customer. [1]

  5. Steelmaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steelmaking

    Steel mill with two arc furnaces. Steelmaking is the process of producing steel from iron ore and/or scrap.Steel has been made for millennia, and was commercialized on a massive scale in the 1850s and 1860s, using the Bessemer and Siemens-Martin processes.

  6. Pig iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_iron

    Pig iron, also known as crude iron, is an intermediate good used by the iron industry in the production of steel. It is developed by smelting iron ore in a blast furnace . Pig iron has a high carbon content, typically 3.8–4.7%, [ 1 ] along with silica and other dross , which makes it brittle and not useful directly as a material except for ...

  7. Low-background steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-background_steel

    A body counting room at the Rocky Flats Plant in Denver, Colorado, made entirely from pre-World War II steel. Low-background steel, also known as pre-war steel [1] and pre-atomic steel, [2] is any steel produced prior to the detonation of the first nuclear bombs in the 1940s and 1950s.

  8. Puddling (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puddling_(metallurgy)

    Puddling is the process of converting pig iron to bar (wrought) iron in a coal fired reverberatory furnace. It was developed in England during the 1780s. The molten pig iron was stirred in a reverberatory furnace, in an oxidizing environment to burn the carbon, resulting in wrought iron. [1]

  9. Ferrous metallurgy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrous_metallurgy

    Pig iron is known as 'raw iron', while wrought iron is known as 'cooked iron'. By the 1st century BC, Chinese metallurgists had found that wrought iron and cast iron could be melted together to yield an alloy of intermediate carbon content, that is, steel. [40] [41] [42]
