Severstal is the largest Russian based steel corporation. - They puchased this facility from Ford Motor Company in 2004. - - There were 3 original blast furnaces there, that were built by Henry Ford, between 1917 and 1927. - - After the purchase, Severstal decommisioned 2 of the blast furnaces, and and fully refurbished the 3rd blast furnace. - The decommissioned blast furnaces were used for parts. - - Severstal invested 1.6 billion dollars, and refurbished, and or modernized the foundry, hot rolling equipment, the cold rolling equipment, the annealing equipment, and the annodizing equipment. - - In 2014, this modern facility was sold to AK Steel Corporation, that is based in Ohio.

Severstal sold as a response to the Russian issue in Ukraine and other concerns at the time. That "convinced" them to liquidate many assets in the USA. It was a political expedient and nothing more. There was a facility in Iowa that made angle and strap steel that was also sold at that time. Not certain of the others.

+Brent Hendricks The Russian instability, caused Severstal to sell quickly. So, they lost a lot of money on the sale. - Severstal had about 1.6 billion dollars invested into the purchase and modernization of the facility. - AK Steel purchased the facility for 707 million dollars in cash. They made a good deal, and benefitted from the Russains work. - The moral of the story is that you can make better money off of fresh immigrants. They work harder, and are not as stable.

We are now called Cleveland Cliffs. As for the blast furnaces, 'A' furnace was shut down and pillaged for parts long before I hired in 30 years ago. Some portions of 'A' are currently being removed and scrapped. Severstal took 'B' furnace out (it is an empty hole now) with plans to rebuild. Rebuild never happened. 'C' furnace is still running.

Before each mill the slab is spayed with very high pressure water to remove scale. You would think it would rapidly cool the slab, but it does not. After the finish mill the strip, which is much thinner now, goes through the laminars. The laminars dump thousands of gallons on the strip and cool it substantially(depending on the product) before it is coiled.
