four basic operations – reduction‚ refining‚ solidification‚ and rolling – to convert iron ore into semi-finished or finished (rolled) steel products. • Reduction The objective is to convert iron ore – naturally occurring in the form of ferrous oxide – into pig iron. In this operation‚ a coker converts coal into coke that is then combined with iron ore in a blast furnace to produce molten pig iron. • Refining Converting pig iron into steel is called refining. The most common technology is the

The further cultivation of plants that produce edible oils‚ as well as the development of oil presses and refineries has led in the last few decades to oils of better quality and less environmental pollution resulting from the production and refining processes. Refining is today usually carried out using a
