Ironmaking and Steelmaking

Aims & Scope

Ironmaking & Steelmaking: Processes, Products and Applications monitors international technological advances in the industry with a strong element of engineering and product related material.

First class refereed papers from the international iron and steel community cover all stages of the process, from ironmaking and its attendant technologies, through casting and steelmaking, to rolling, forming and delivery of the product, including monitoring, quality assurance and environmental issues.

The journal also carries research profiles, features on technological and industry developments and expert reviews on major conferences.

Steel World.

Twice a year Ironmaking & Steelmaking publishes special Steel World issues.

These issues include an extended news and features section focusing on strategic and technical developments in the steel industry.

They are widely circulated to members of the Institute Steel Division and senior steel industry personnel worldwide, in addition to subscribers to Ironmaking & Steelmaking.

The combination of Steel World (previously a separate publication of the Institute of Materials) and Ironmaking & Steelmaking offers an exceptional opportunity for information dissemination and technical awareness in the industry.
