But for many producers, the transformation of their production routes—away from integrated steel production—raises difficult questions. Deniz Catan, an expert in electric steelmaking, joins Tom Widter in addressing points such as “What are the raw materials of the future?” or “What kinds of steel grades can be made with the electric arc furnace?” You may be surprised to learn that electric steelmaking, done right, can enable the production of even some of the most challenging steels.</p><div class="ghostkit-divider ghostkit-divider-type-solid ghostkit-custom-Z1IEGyL"></div><h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="deniz-catan">Deniz Catan</h2><p>Deniz Catan is a metallurgist by training and has years of experience working as chief engineer at a leading European steel producer.
