• It is a “greener” steel feedstock, as „virgin iron
units‟ (i.e. those mined in ore form) require more
power, processing and transportation than scrap.
• Over 1400kg of iron ore, 400kg of coal and 55kg Steel Scrap Ratio Steel Scrap/Crude steel in %

- 6. Ferrous Scrap – Alternative sources?
1. Pig Iron
- Pig Iron generally doesn‟t come onto the market – instead being passed straight
through to the BOF in integrated mills. However; merchant pig iron is produced
from the blast furnace and cast into ingots for sale. It‟s formed from iron ore, coke
and limestone + lots of heat. Minimum 92% Fe.
Integrated
Blast Furnace Basic Oxygen Furnace
2. DRI / HBI
- DRI (AKA „sponge iron‟) is heated iron ore, exposed to a reducing gas. Minimum
90% Fe, typically higher, in pellet form.
- HBI as above, but compacted for ease of handling/shipping.
These alternatives are used to make high quality steel due to the high Fe content and the
fact that that the impurities implicit in the inputs are known quantities. This reduces the
residuals in the liquid steel.

- 7. Ferrous Scrap – What is it?
BOF Steelmaking Process
Steel scrap has an important role to make in the steelmaking process. It typically forms
the vast majority of the ferrous charge in EAF steelmaking
Even in integrated steel mills using the BOF steelmaking process, which are often
thought of as using only iron, scrap is used as part of their charge mix.
It is generally added as a proportion of 10-30% of the total BOF volume. This is
dependent on the cost of iron ore vs. scrap. If the price of iron ore is high and scrap is
low, economics will dictate a higher proportion of scrap is used.

- 8. Ferrous Scrap – What does it affect?
• Scrap yards, traders and brokers sales price margins.
• Steel mills using electric furnaces (80-85% of cost of production)
• Integrated steel mills (up to 15% of cost of production)
• Steel billet producers’ and purchasers’ margins.
• Rebar, wire rod and merchant bar markets are heavily affected by scrap
costs as these products are typically produced via the EAF steelmaking
process.
• Construction company margins. Long-range, fixed-price construction
projects are directly affected by the increasing price volatility of these
finished steel goods.
• We cannot forget producers of flat products either, as high grade scrap is
used in the production steel coil and sheet products for the construction,
automotive and manufacturing industries (especially in North America).

market example
• Will a scrap derivatives market take-off?
• The example of iron ore suggests a massive interest in the ability to
hedge raw material input costs. Over US$5 billion (35 million tonnes) of
iron ore swaps and options have been cleared since launch (basis TSI).

Given that the world’s steel recycling ratio has fallen significantly as emerging markets
consume steel and produce little scrap, the market has become structurally tighter than
those for iron ore and coal.

- 15. EAF Production – There are a few important pinch
points in the world
US Midwest: 68mtpa EAF industry inland has to compete with
the East coast exporting docks for material.
Rotterdam: Dockside exporter material is competed for by both
Spanish and Italian importers, as well as Turkish importers.
Turkey: The world‟s larges scrap importer, Hoovers up scrap
Handymax-size vessel loads (circa 35,000t each) from the EU,
USA, Middle East and Black-Sea bordering countries.
India, West Coast: The world‟s most liquid containerised scrap
import market. Like Turkey, sources from a variety of locations,
but in smaller quantities.
North Asia: China, S. Korea and Taiwan form a cluster of scrap
importers in the largest steel producing region of the world.

• Transaction data submitted to TSI confidentially by companies
buying and selling relevant products (over 500 registered ‘data

• Fully transparent and verifiable processes.
• Unique consistent methodology applied worldwide.

The Premier Price Information Service
• The Steel Index was launched in 2006 specifically to respond to the
need for:
− more frequent
− more precise
− independent
…reference price information
• Ferrous prices are gathered in a robust, reliable manner.
• The index is produced from actual physical market transaction data
points: a volume-weighted average. It is not a journalistic assessment.
• Pioneering approach to compiling steel price information – using only
transaction data, suitable for indexing and price risk management.

• Submissions of actual physical spot market transactions are
submitted to TSI throughout the week, up until the deadline of 11.00
GMT each Friday.
• The data set is then subjected to an analysis to remove outliers,
with the remaining data points being volume-weighted to produce a
single average price. This methodology firmly grounds the number
in the physical market.
• TSI publishes scrap prices to our subscribers each Friday at 12.30
GMT (apart from UK public holidays, in which case prices are
published the following UK business day).
• Prices are published online and by email, with associated market
commentary and other relevant market information.
