A VISIT TO EKO-STAHL IN EISENHÜTTENSTADT

 



 
 
 
In our week in Germany we visited  
Eko-stahl. It was very interresting. 
We saw how they made raw iron into 
steel. On this picture we begon with our tour. The helmets are for our safety. 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
Raw iron is heated. 
This is the begining of the process. 
 
 
In the Hochofen the raw iron is captured. 
The iron is very hot, it is also liquid. 
 
 
 

 
 
The metal is now on a roll off 150m, it weights about 25.000 until 32.000 kg.  
This is almost the end of the process.  
After this the metal is covered with a layer of sinc.
