Direct Reduction is an iron making process for the new era. It utilizes natural gas to reduce iron ore to produce Direct
Reduced Iron (DRI). It is a process whereby iron ore pellets are converted at high temperature to a highly pure form of
iron. Qatar Steel has adopted the gas based Direct Reduction Process technology in its integrated complex for iron-making.
Its MIDREX process DR Module (DR-1) built and commissioned in August 1978 was the first of its kind in the region with
a capacity of 400,000 MTPA (now producing 800,000 MTPA).Qatar Steel has commissioned its 2nd module (DR-2) in April
2007 with a capacity of 1.5 MTPA (now producing 1.6 MTPA), thus making the total capacity of Direct Reduction plant to
2.4 MTPA.
In its over thirty five (35) years of operations, production from
Reduced Iron (CDRI) and Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI). The DR-1
HBI is 50 per cent denser than DRI pellets and lump and reduces

From start-up of DR-2 Module, till the end of 2014, DR-2 Module
produced 10.6 Million tons of DRI. 30% of the production has been
exported to customers in Asia and GCC countries.

Qatar Steel was the first integrated steel plant in the gulf region that utilized a high percentage Direct Reduced Iron (95%) as a
replacement of scrap for the production of steel from Electric Arc Furnaces. The original plant started in 1978 with an aim to utilize abundant natural gas resources available in Qatar for reduction of iron ore as the major feedstock for Electric Arc Furnaces.
Qatar Steel has five (5) Electric Arc furnaces. EF1 & EF2 are
conventional launder type tapping while EF3, EF4 & EF5 are
Eccentric Bottom Tapping (EBT) type.EF5 was commissioned in
2014 with 110T capacity.
EF 1 and EF 2, 80T EAFs are powered by 50 MVA transformers
comprising two 4-strandstraight mould continuous billet casting
machines with design capacity to produce 380,000t of steel billets
per annum. Production gradually increased to 664,000t over the
next 25 years.
EF 3, 80T EAF of EBT-type is powered by 70/84 MVA transformer
comprising four strands curved mould billet casting machine that
was commissioned in 1999 with an annual capacity of 550,000t
of billets increasing total production to 1.14 million tons in 2004.
A ladle furnace was commissioned in October 2006 to facilitate
increase in production whilst reducing the operating cost.
Embarking on another expansion program in 2005, Qatar Steel
incorporated EF4 with 80T EBT-type(78/90 MVA) along with a
Ladle Furnace and a modern 4-strand curved mould, high speed
billet casting machine equipped for special steel grades. This

Continuous Casting is the process whereby molten steel is solidified into a semi-finished billet, boom, or slab for subsequent
rolling in the finishing mills. Since its inception, a high degree of automation has enhanced operational excellence, increase in
throughput by over 50% and reduction in cost.
The Continuous Casting Plant at Qatar Steel is equipped with four
specifications:
curved mould.
Billets are cut to 3~4 meter length by hydraulic shear and transferred

Billets from CC3 CC4 and CC5 are cut to 3.5m ~ 12m by gas
mill for the production of rebar at Qatar Steel and QSC FZE, UAE.

ROLLING MILLS
Advanced technology to meet the market requirements, faster processing speed and higher surface quality are some of the
prominent features of the rolling mill at Qatar Steel.
In line with its commitment to the policy of the company related to
quality, productivity and safe environment, rolling mill is designed to
ensure efficient and safety operation.
The total annual requirements of billets are received from the CC plants.
They are delivered in batches on daily basis and charged at reheating
furnace and rolled in different sizes according to the rolling plan made
based on order from Sales & Marketing Department.
Qatar Steel has two rolling mill plants namely Rolling Mill-1 & Rolling Mill2 and the combined design capacity is 1,500,000 MTPA.

With the support of a diligent team, Lime Calcination Plant was commissioned in Qatar Steel on December 2011 for
producing calcined lime and dololime for captive consumption. Both high calcium and dolomitic lime enjoys its most extensive
use as a flux in refining of the steel in EAF. Lime is particularly effective in removing phosphorus, sulphur, and silica, and, to a
lesser extent, manganese.
It is also used to perform key functions, such as fine tuning of steel chemistry, lowering of the oxygen content, reduction in
the inclusions trapped by the slag, the adjustment of steel temperature, removal of additional impurities, and the prevention
of reabsorption of impurities from slags.
Lime Calcined Plant with total design capacity of 550 tons/day
was established on 26/12/2011. Overall set up comprises of 2 nos
M/s Cimprogetti Srl, Italy make state of art Vertical Twin D Shaft
Natural Gas fired Lime kilns and related material handling system
to fulfill requirement of Fluxes of Calcined Lime & dololime used in
existing Electrical Arc Furnaces & Ladle Furnaces. It is a process in
which Specially sourced Raw Limestone & Dolostone are calcined
at temperatures about 1050 Deg C to produce highly reactive and
quality products Calcined Lime & Dololime with optimum energy.
Material Handling System includes facility of crushing, screening &
bagging to prepare the final product sizes as per requirement.

Technical Features
BS4449:2005 GrB500B rebars are produced with low carbon equivalent & Weldable, whereas ASTM A615 Gr60, ISO 6935-2:2007
B500B-R SSA2/1992 are Non-Weldable.
BS4449:2005 GrB500B rebars have High Strength Compared to ASTM A615 Gr60 which reduces steel consumption & congestion in
structure, in turn reduces overall cost of project
BS4449:2005 GrB500B rebars have High Yield Strength i.e. 500 MPa (Min) compared to ASTM A615 Gr60, without compromising on
ductility
BS4449:2005 GrB500B rebars have better bend performance, due to severe bend & re-bend angle. Rebars conforming to BS 4449:2005
Specification, are subjected to Fatigue testing and survive minimum 5 million stress cycles
High Strength Rebar with Yield Strength>600 MPa: Over the years rebar with yield strength 420MPa, 460MPa, 500MPa etc. conforming to
BS 4449/ASTM A 615 specifications were available in Qatar/GCC region. Rebar with higher strength i.e.YS>600MPa will reduce the steel
consumption by around 20 % in construction, which in turn lowers the overall cost of structure. Using high strength rebar can also lead
to reduction in column size of heavily loaded structure and there is relief from rebar congestion.

In line with enhancing value to the needs of other target markets with select value added products and exceptional customer
attention, Qatar Steel has set up a state-of-the-art fully integrated and fully automated Rebar Fabrication Facility at its
existing plant at Mesaieed Industrial City.
The development of Qatars Infrastructure is set to provide a
demand for processed steel which will see a continuous rise in the
foreseeable future.
Since 2007, Rebar Fabrication Facility has advanced significantly to
become the No. 1 Rebar Processing Facility in Qatar. It expanded
the operation in 2009 to meet the rising demands and continuously
improving its services to facilitate requirements of construction
Industry.
Additional machinery was installed and advanced Systems were
introduced as part of the progress of Rebar Fabrication Facility
in order to maintain a High Standard of Quality Sustainability and
Safety throughout the Process of Cutting and Bending.
Rebar Fabrication Facility Team of Engineers and Production Staff are
constantly exposed to new and innovative construction solutions
and ensure providing assistance in relation to resolving reinforcing
related construction issues and application issues such as accurate
specified bending and re-bending techniques and value engineering.
