Just a fantastic video. Notice the writers ability to communicate the chemistry with simple illustrations and explanations. This is how you teach people, you teach them in layers, first the broad strokes, then the details are added. Im going to guess that modern steel making is probably 90% more efficient than the steel mills shown here. A modern steel mill is probably consuming less than 10% of the joules of heat per kg of steel that are shown here. If you didnt marvel and laugh at the "melter" taking a deep drag of that cigarette you dont have a heart!

Sometimes the logistics of these early plants amaze me. Huge, complex, expensive machines and systems to move the ore from here to there, load and unload it from this and that. But when the bazillion degree plasma comes out of the bottom of the furnace, let's have a guy in a foil suit open the door with a stick.
I know nothing about steelmaking, but I'll just say this. It all seems so primative and confusing. Load it, unload it, load it, unload it. Move it here, then there. Doesn't seem very efficient, and yes the guy with a stick putting his life on the line. OSHA seriously needed here.
Enjoyed watching this video, seeing how they used to do it and the different processes of Steelmaking. I've worked in 3 different Steel Plants over the last 26 years. Currently I am a Melter/ Pulpit Operator on an EAF in the Uk. The basics are still the same but the technology, methods and safety side of it have moved on with much greater automation which over time has cost jobs unfortunately but has lead to a safer working environment.
that should work in theory but most americans only want to buy cheap imported exploited shyte from asia. maybe if americans where truly patriotic they would buy american made at the price it costs to make and maintain a decent living wage for the workers.
@@kenkelly5848 I try to buy American made where possible. You’d be amazed how much time I spent trying to buy American flags that were legitimately made in the USA.
Corporate profits & stockholder demands, & the dramatic wealth inequality in the USA that comes with it. We don't have a middle class that could afford to pay the price of domestically produced steel. We live in a global marketplace & it's a race to the bottom.
It can definitely be done and it’s not this nonsense of “race to the bottom”. The economics may not make make sense to most people, so I will simplify: China saves way too much and for their GDP, their real income per capita is still quite low, i.e., their people should be much wealthier than they are based on their GDP. If their wealth increased an exchange rates moved more freely, they would consumer more and U.S. would manufacture and at home more and export abroad. The CCP is a huge obstacle because they pursue stability through GDP growth and prevent real income from rising. also, CCP is not a worker’s utopia and the people save so much in part because CCP provides little entitlement services. rather than impose massive tariffs the U.S. could impose a tax on sovereigns who hold treasuries. either tax will generate a ton of money that we keep and can reinvest in our industries, or CCP will reduce holdings of treasuries and promote domestic investment and domestic consumption. also, i am really over-simplifying here, but essentially the issue isn’t trade per se, it’s that countries in Asia, especially CCP over-save and do not allow or promote enough consumption.
Yeah. And 5pm day ends, pensions, and straight-from-HS jobs. Everyone fantasizes about how hard these guys worked. These guys had it good. These were the best days of western manufacturing, before asshat corporations moved shit overseas to satisfy greedy investors. We screwed over the workers to satisfy those buy stock.
my first job was as a metallurgist and industrial photographer at USS Research National Tube Division in Oakland in 1965 when Pittsburgh was the steel capital of the planet Earth!..by the mid 80s the unions made steel production in America uneconomical and China took over! i then moved to Westinghouse Research Atomic Power Division in Monroeville in the same position!...i got out in time and pursued photography as a career
I mean, 3 counties in Minnesota sent out more iron ore during WWII than all of the rest of the Allied countries COMBINED. More than all of the the combined Axis iron ore. The U.S. happened to have a massive deposit of high grade ore, the Great Lakes to ship it over, and the coal and other components. When they said it’s sometimes pelletized for the next parts of the process? That’s because they had to move to taconite, because the best ore already went into skyscrapers, planes, guns, tanks, bridges, etc… And any one of 10 states for iron? Sure. But 9 of them today produce just about 10% of that altogether. There’s some pretty glossed over things contributing to those prices and business decisions, too. And as soon as there’s a cheaper way, resource, automation option… you know? Like, unions started for some very, very good reasons. People died for it. I’m not saying that they are blameless, but focusing just on that without even mentioning drastic changes in the necessary raw materials or business decisions in it becoming uneconomical feels a bit like ‘pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!’
2 main reasons why that is unlikely: 1) cost - there's simply no way US steel can be cheaper then Chinese, the cost of labor is several times as much 2) emissions - steel making is not very environmentally friendly process...lots of mining (ore, coal, limestone), coke and blast furnace gas production, converting (to steel), slag (although it's possible to use this in construction as aggregate) and last but not least, power to run all of this, which in the case of US is rather heavy on the coal side...all of these processes are very emissions intensive, dealing with those would push the cost up even more.
Nucor is an American company and one of the biggest Steel Producers in the world. We still make the best steel available here in the US, we just don't need nearly as much of it as when this video was made. Another aspect is that this video was made in a completely different era of industrial production. Most of the processes you see in this video have been automated to improve efficiencies. Like 1/10th the labor needs sort of automation. At one time more people worked in US Steel's Mon Valley Works than works in the ENTIRE company today. Different era...long gone.
Im a skilled man who manipulates the mechanical monster. I like the sound of that. Usually, just work in the pulpit. All the new guys look up and wonder " how do those people get that job". The higher the step the more it usually sucks.
I’m 72, but my Great Uncle was a melter at the Open Hearth - could have been the Homestead Mill near Pittsburgh. The men jokingly had a daily inquiry - “ Did you walk to work, or carry your lunch”? Think about it. They were not paid much. If you walked, then you could afford the Lunch Truck. If you carried your lunch, you could take the bus to work.
The problem with Jeff's channel was, all the films he placed on it were poached from other sources. For example, he stole dozens and dozens of films from our channel, blew them up to hide our identifying marks, and then re-posted them claiming they were "restored" and "enhanced" when in reality they were badly damaged, distorted, and re-positioned. He was doing this with videos from dozens of museums, libraries, and the government. Whereas we spend enormous time and energy to preserve motion picture history, all he did was take things that he felt were up for grabs (some might call it stealing but we're not going to go there). We suspect this is the reason his channel isn't around any longer.

Colours from film are much better than digitally captured, differences in analogue vs digital audio aren't as noticable.

Worked for U.S. STEEL mining the coal to make steel. Worked at Gary #14 mine in West Va. worst mistake ever made. Note: they were a good company to work for-it was a mistake because of my health in breathing the dust.

realize you are talking about coal dust, but found this absolute gem of son interviewing his father on what it was like to work in USS Chicago Southworks mill. One of the dad’s quotes is so memorable: “The mill had a sign that said 99% dust free, but that 1%, wow!”
I think USS is the only remaining old school steel outfit to have survived and kept its original name. Granted they went by USX for a few years after a mid 80's reorganization but went back to the old name and logo after a few years. The only other outfit I can think of that is still around is Armco but they got bought by the Japanese and changed their name to A&K Steel. Mini mills and imports have pretty much wiped out all the other steel producers. USS has bought Big River Steel, a mini mill, or as they describe themselves "A technology company that happens to make steel". I won't be surprised if at some point the integrated side (the traditional steel mills) of USS are spun off to the employees (along with the pension & environmental liabilities) and USS becomes a mini mill. Time will tell.
BTW since I said this AK Steel/ Armco got bought out and is now Cleveland-Cliffs. On July 28, 2023, Cleveland-Cliffs executives sent a proposal to US Steel CEO David Burnett, to acquire the company for a total enterprise value of $10 billion, in a cash and stock deal. The proposal has been endorsed by the United Steelworkers, but was rejected by US Steel on August 13. I wont be surprised if those 2 get talking about a merger again in the next 5 years.
