   F&F HAL, Saarloha & Bharat Forge to Develop Aero Steel Alloys
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   17 Feb, 2023, 5:59 am
   
   F&F HAL, Saarloha & Bharat Forge have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for development and production of aerospace grade steel alloys at Aero India. This MoU also accentuates development, certification & prove out and application of new material for use in production of aircrafts, engines, and accessories.
   
   F&F HAL’s Executive Director Mr MS Venkatesh said that “The development of Aerospace grade raw materials in the Country will help HAL in maintaining its commitment to Armed forces and will also reduce nation's dependency on foreign OEM's with respect to raw materials.”
   
   There are very few equivalent approved &qualified domestic suppliers for various types of Aerospace grade steel alloys used in Aircraft applications. Due to this such alloys are getting imported which creates dependency on foreign steel, manufactures. Hence, accelerated efforts are needed to develop and manufacture such steel alloys in India through collaboration.
   
   The usage of such specialty alloys in Aerospace is going to increase multifold, especially in fighter Aircrafts & Helicopters. This indigenization initiative could also pave the way for the increased utilization of 'Make in India' steels in other related sector such as space & defense.

   SSAB’s Ruukki Modernizes Vimpeli Plant’s Bending Machine
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   17 Feb, 2023, 5:59 am
   
   Swedish steelmaker SSAB’s Ruukki Construction has completed the modernization of the bending machine at the Vimpeli plant in Finland in January 2023. The modernization is part of the Ruukki-wide investment program and the Vimpeli Flow investment project that started in December 2021. The project aims to improve employee safety and efficiency, reduce plant emissions by improving energy efficiency, and to support Ruukki’s strategic target to grow sustainably together with customers by ensuring the high quality of customer deliveries.
   
   At the turn of the year, Ruukki modernized the press brake that had been operating at the Vimpeli plant for more than 20 years to meet today's needs and requirements. The tandem press brake is used to make high-quality steel purlins and diverse profiles to meet the needs of construction customers. The investment is an important one for customers, as there are only a few similar tandem-type press brakes capable of producing 16-meter profiles in the Nordic countries.
   
   Ruukki’s Vimpeli plant makes steel roofing products and serves construction customers mostly in Finland. The Vimpeli plant is in South Ostrobothnia and employs around 90 people. In Finland, in addition to Vimpeli, Ruukki also manufactures building products in Alajärvi, Kauhava and Joensuu.

   AIIFA Seeks GST Structure Rationalization for Scrap
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   17 Feb, 2023, 6:00 am
   
   All India Induction Furnace Association has urged the government to rationalize the GST structure on metal scrap, a pressing issue for the iron and steel sector in India. AIFA said in a press statement that while government bodies have made efforts to prevent tax evasion due to bogus input tax credits, the actions taken by these bodies have also thrown up some practical challenges for manufacturers.
   
   AIIFA has highlighted the challenges faced by producers;
   
   1. Local scrap dealers or traders are doing scrap billing on fake GST bills, collecting GST from manufacturers along with bill of materials, but not depositing the amount with the department. There is currently no mechanism available on the GST portal to collect GST or verify the authenticity of bills. As a result, frequent raids and notices are sent from tax authorities to manufacturers seeking details of scrap purchased from scrap dealers.
   
   2. This is followed by disallowance of GST credit to the manufacturers on the presumption that the credit distributed by the scrap dealers is irregular.
   
   3. Disruption of supply chain by ban on entry of items supplied by scrap dealers into the factory premises of manufacturers. At times, manufacturers are directed not to deal with certain scrap dealers which leads to disruption of the production cycle.
   
   AIFA member Mr Sudhir Goyal said “The current GST regime causes significant disruption in the supply of key raw materials thus making it a business continuity issue rather than just a tax issue. Much litigation has been filed for GST disputes, which cost the industry a huge amount of both cost and time. On behalf of the industry, I would request the government to consider our recommendations to implement Reverse Charge Mechanism and introduce separate HSN codes for old scrap and new scrap and reverse charge mechanism on sale Notify old scrap under RCM.”

   Salzgitter Acquires Scrap Recycler Must in Harz in Germany
   
   Strategic Research Institute
   Published on :
   17 Feb, 2023, 6:01 am
   
   By way of its subsidiary Deutsche Erz und Metall Union DEUMU, German steelmaker Salzgitter has now acquired the recycling company Must-Metalle-Container-Recycling with effect 15 February 2023. In future, the Must company will operate as an independent undertaking within the Salzgitter Group and will trade under the new name “Harzer Schrott und Recycling GmbH”. It has been agreed that the purchase price will remain confidential.
   
   Based in Goslar in the Harz in Lower Saxony region of Germany, the company specializes in trading in scrap materials and metals. As an owner-managed family business, Must was founded in 1909 and operates a container supply and scrapping business, dealing predominantly with companies in the metals processing sector. It also has a downstream sorting and processing operation which enables it to supply quality grades of scrap. The takeover is intended to facilitate the progression of this successful SME to the next stage of growth.
   
   In making this acquisition, DEUMU is directly implementing the Strategy Salzgitter AG 2030 that is consistently geared to circularity. As part of the SALCOS® - Salzgitter Low CO2 Steelmaking program that is pioneering the transition to virtually CO2-free steel production, the Salzgitter Group intends to significantly expand its scrap recycling activities. This acquisition represents a further development in “circularity" in the immediate vicinity of the steel-making location of Salzgitter, and will facilitate the use of high-quality secondary raw materials in the production of steel.

    SEIFSA Warns of Bleak Year Ahead for Metals & Engineering Sector
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    17 Feb, 2023, 6:01 am
    
    Steel & Engineering Industries Federation of South Africa in annual report has warned that South Africa’s Metals & Engineering sector, which is used as a measure of the overall economy’s performance, is expected to contract 2.2% in 2023 as the sector grapples with a toxic combination of load-shedding, dismal service delivery and a depressed global economic environment. To place this figure in context, production for the sector increased by 1.6% in 2022, although the sectors gross domestic product contracted by 6.5% in the same year.
    
    SEIFSA Chief Operating Officer Mr Tafadzwa Chibanguza describes the current global environment as extremely challenging. He said “Inflation emanated as one of the most significant global headwinds in 2022, with the conflict in Ukraine and China's slowdown, from the perspective of the country being the world's factory, feeding inflationary pressures. Central banks around the world have had to adopt a much more aggressive stance to fight the stubbornly high inflation, and the implications of the monetary policy are starting to bite and will shape the economic fortunes for the year. A global economic slowdown is expected, tighter financing conditions have exposed fiscally vulnerable emerging markets, all of which represent markets for the M&E Sector which exports 38.2% of output, with half of the exports going into Africa. Local headwinds, primarily the energy crisis, only serve to compound the already inhospitable environment. The sectors to which the M&E Sector supplies domestically, namely construction, automotive, mining and petrochemicals have all indicated a difficult year ahead, with the energy crisis being a chief contributor.”
    
    The report also highlights the key reform programmes and policies needed to drive the sector's performance, which is closely tied to economic activity and underpinned by prevailing economic fundamentals.

    Indian Steel Industry Seeks Stoppage of Cheap Steel Imports
    
    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    17 Feb, 2023, 6:03 am
    
    PTI has reported that India’s Union Steel Minister Mr Jyotiraditya M Scindia, while answering a question of steel industry flagging the issue of cheap imports, said “If you look at the numbers, the rise is very minimal. Our market is growing tremendously and our domestic producers are supplying well.”
    
    Indian Steel Association Secretary General Mr Alok Sahay said the industry is undergoing the pressure of supply chain issues coupled with increasing raw material prices. He told “Steel is exported to India under Free Trade Agreement from countries at lower than their domestic prices, which is nothing but dumping. We have been repeatedly raising the issue of cheap imports with the ministry.”

    Saudi exempts Bahrain-based Sulb sections from import duty
    201 Views
    
    Bahrain steelmaker Sulb’s customers in Saudi Arabia, major trading companies, have each received separate notifications from Saudi tax and customs authority ZATCA informing them sections purchases from Sulb are exempt from Saudi Arabia’s rules-of-origin duty.
    
    "The buyers have been notified by e-mail that they don't have to issue a payment guarantee or pay duty on imports until June 2023, which will be revalidated based on the resubmission of required reports. Sulb-Bahrain has gone through external auditory certification for localisation, country of origin of raw material, etc., and submitted the documents through the local ministry in Bahrain to Saudi ZATCA. Now that Sulb-Bahrain has been awarded for compliance, the buyers will not have to make import duty payments, claim for refunds or issue bank guarantees," Sulb chief executive Ravi Singh tells Kallanish.
    
    "We thank the government of Saudi and Bahrain and, specifically, the ZATCA authorities, Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and customs authorities for their guidance and support in facilitating this exemption,” Singh says.
    
    Every six months, the exemption is to be extended or terminated subject to the criteria of the Saudi rules-of-origin decree. This will enable buyers to refrain from paying any import duty and waiting for a refund after making claims.
    
    In December, billet imports from Bahrain’s Sulb to its Saudi-based re-roller subsidiary, Saudi Sulb, were exempted from the duty (see Kallanish passim).
    
    Sulb is the largest steel producer in Bahrain, with a captive direct reduced iron plant fed with pellet manufactured by adjacent sister company Bahrain Steel. It produces up to 1.2 million tonnes/year of crude steel and more than 1 mt/y of sections, beams, angles, and channels, together with its subsidiary in Al Jubail, Saudi Arabia.
    
    A 51% stake in Sulb is owned by Foulath Holding, established by the six Gulf Cooperation Council countries through their investment holding company Gulf Investment Corporation (GIC). Yamato Kogyo, a Japanese structural steel producer, has the remaining 49%.

    BaoSteel has recently delivered 60 tonnes of ultra high strength steel for manufacturing of truck mounted crane booms to substitute imported steel. As the first steel mill in China to achieve import substitution of BS800E and BS960E hot-rolled ultra-high strength steel, Baosteel has been at the forefront of independent R&D and production of ultra-high strength steel.
    
    Three years ago, major domestic construction machinery users have repeatedly put forward that they hope that BaoSteel will play the leading role of domestic steel mills, achieve product breakthroughs, help users no longer be subject to foreign steel mills in such products, and promote the update and iteration of heavy equipment in major countries.
    
    Construction machinery as a heavy weapon of a large country is a symbol that reflects the national manufacturing level, and ultra-high strength advanced materials are the cornerstone of the manufacturing of heavy equipment in a large country. BaoSteel joins hands with leading users in the construction machinery industry to continuously innovate around the application and upgrading of new products, new processes and new technologies.
    
    BaoSteel’s recently commissioned thin-gauge ultra-high-strength steel production line, which has improved processing and molding accuracy. With latest cooling process, the internal stress of the steel plate is effectively improved, and the phenomenon of slitting side bending is effectively improved. The surface oxide layer is more uniform, which effectively solves the problem of black ash. The result is ultra-high strength, high plate shape quality, high-quality surface, good low-temperature toughness, weldability, and cold formability.
    
    With this, BaoSteel’s heat treatment products will continue to improve product quality, supply capacity and resource assurance, and further improve the overall competitiveness.

    Vale Indonesia plans to expand its cooperation with Taiyuan Iron & Steel Co by building a stainless steel plant after completing the nickel smelter project with Rotary Kiln Electric Furnace technology in Bahodopi in Morowali in Central Sulawesi. Vale Indonesia CEO Mr Febriany Eddy said “We agree to consider building a stainless steel plant after the RKEF nickel smelter is completed. Hopefully, we can go further in the downstream industry.”
    
    The Bahodopi smelter would produce 73,000 tonnes of nickel per year and support the stainless steel industry in cooperation with Tisco.

    Hungarian Telex has reported that lot of positive things have happened in the past week in Dunaújváros with visit of Liberty Steel’s President Mr Sanjeev Gupta and Liberty Primary Steel’s CEO Mr Sandip Biswas to ailing Hungarian steelmaker Dunaferr. Sandip Biswas told Telex “"During the courtesy introduction, it was said that everything is very good, the managers looked at the blast furnace and the cold rolling mill. We started work again on Sunday afternoon, blast furnace 2 started up on Monday, we already tapped good material on Wednesday and a directional train carrying ore with 25 wagons arrived. We don't know exactly from where, but it was organized by Liberty, and we trust that there will be a continuous supply of materials from Ostrava and the Ukrainian border.”
    
    Liberty Stel has been holding talks with members of the Hungarian government and they also visited the Dunaújváros plant. They have also registered a Hungarian subsidiary Liberty Steel Central Europe in Budapest. Liberty Steel also sent coal in December to Dunaferr to keep the plant's coke ovens running.
    
    The Hungarian smelter, built in the 1950s, operates on the basis of ore imported from Russia and Ukraine. This is one of the reasons for the plant's problems as supplies from Russia are blocked and Ukraine has also lost a significant part of its iron ore production.
