It has already been 30 years since the 1st European Oxygen Steelmaking Conference. Since then, significant achievements have been reached in steelmaking from a scientific and industrial perspective, environmental aspects and clean steel technologies gaining tremendous importance and attention. We actively participated in this exciting and intense journey in the last years. Therefore, it is a pleasure to jointly host EOSC 2025 and CTSI 2025, combining important hot topics of today’s iron and steel community.
Considering the current dynamics in the transformation of the European steel industry and all the different aspects and milestones to reach the goal of a climate-neutral Europe by 2050, joint efforts are inevitable. The two conferences are an excellent combination in these challenging surroundings, giving a platform to discuss and exchange on developments in the field of oxygen steelmaking, the future role of converter technologies in the environment of increased share of direct reduction processes and EAF investments and of course CO2 mitigation and other environmental and energy aspects in iron and steelmaking.
Organized by ASMET – the Austrian Society for Metallurgy and Materials, Austria, the venue combines a long steelmaking tradition with research on the pulse of time. Being proud of our country as the cradle of the LD process and home of the internationally well-recognized Montanuniversitaet Leoben regarding metallurgical research, we look forward to interesting encounters and intense discussions with colleagues and partners from industry and academia.
Following the success of both conferences in Aachen in 2022, we cordially invite you to join the 10th European Oxygen Steelmaking Conference and the 7th Conference on Clean Technologies in the Steel Industry from May 20-22, 2025 in Vienna, the beautiful capital city of Austria!
