Scrap - Circular Economy - video Dailymotion

Železiarne Podbrezová

The video explains the principle of the circular economy at Železiarne Podbrezová, where steel is produced mainly from recycled steel scrap. It shows the process of scrap processing and its transformation into high-quality steel using an electric arc furnace. It also highlights the environmental benefits and compliance with European requirements for sustainable production.

00:00Jelizyarn Podbrezova, a modern Slovak steel producer with a vision.

00:07At the heart of our work lies the circular economy,

00:11transforming recycled steel scrap into high-quality steel.

00:15By doing so, we don't just follow sustainability principles, we bring them to life.

00:21Every piece of secondary raw material gains a new future in our mills.

00:27The journey of steel begins with scrap.

00:30Our subsidiaries manage its collection and processing with state-of-the-art shredding and sorting technologies.

00:37End-of-life vehicles and other metal waste are carefully transformed into high-quality raw material.

00:44Through cutting, burning, and pressing, we guarantee the homogeneity of every batch.

00:49With more than 50 collection points across Slovakia, each within 250 kilometers of our processing site,

00:56we ensure efficiency, sustainability, and reliability in every step of the recycling chain.

01:02The result of our recycling process is high-quality steel scrap, the essential input for our production cycle.

01:12Inside our 50-ton electric arc furnace, this material is melted with the power of an electric arc,

01:18transforming waste into new value.

01:19We rely exclusively on advanced electro-metallurgical technology,

01:25purpose-built for processing secondary raw materials.

01:28By doing so, we not only achieve efficiency and quality,

01:32but also meet the strict requirements of the European taxonomy,

01:35setting a benchmark for sustainable steelmaking.
