on 6 November at the CCD Congress Center Düsseldorf
Dear Sir or Madam,
Political decisions in Germany and Europe in 2014 could seriously affect the steel industry. In Germany the energy transition is also of industrial-political importance. Further energy and environmental poli-cy decisions in Brussels and Berlin will also have major effects on the steel industry in Germany. What changes in political conditions can we expect? And what impact will Europe’s structural crisis have on the development of the steel industry in Germany?
This year’s motto for the event “Perspectives with Steel” refers to the challenges as well as the opportunities for the material. Steel has major innovative potentials and offers solutions for the meg-atrends of urbanisation and mobility, as well as sustainability. What potentials do high-strength steels have regarding the required light construction? How can climate policies and the EU Emission Trading System be effectively designed whilst ensuring the competitiveness of energy-intensive industries? What are the perspectives for industrial added value networks? These questions and other central technical- scientific topics related to steel production and product innovations will be discussed during the STAHL 2014 annual event.
Eight Talks about Steel form the basis of STAHL 2014. These will examine specialist topics in detail. We want to discuss with you the current technical and economic challenges that will shape the steel industry in future. The event will close with the traditional Steel Get-Together, which will start at 6.00 p.m.
Best wishes,
Hans Jürgen Kerkhoff Chairman Steel Institute VDEhPresident German Steel Federation

Welcome and opening
The opening event at STAHL 2014 focuses on the future of industry in Europe as well as the challenges involved in main-taining competitiveness.
Given the tensions between regional economic development and European integration, Minister-President of the Saarland Kramp-Karrenbauer will discuss political strategies for industrial regions. She will examine the challenges facing such regions and the answers that politics can provide.
President of the employers’ associations Ingo Kramer will discuss industry’s future employment role in Europe. The pros-pects for business locations are also affected by demographic development. What status do education and qualifications have, and how can Europe cope with demographic change?
Prof. Dr. Dr. Di Fabio will speak about the growing significance of European institutions and the corresponding implications for national economic policies. With regard to the regulatory conflicts between ecology and economics, in particular, the question of how a sense of proportion and subsidiarity can be maintained within the EU is becoming increasingly important. What significance have economic and industrial policies in Europe? How can the successful industrial basis be secured?
The opening of the STAHL 2014 annual event will thus discuss industry’s perspectives in a European context.

Steels for the energy technology of the future
Energy production, energy generation and energy transportation
are fundamental topics of our time. Steel has and will have an
indispensable role here. Steel faces challenges regarding the
conventional production of energy as well as the production
of renewable energies but these can be met by steels’ many
capabilities. The material steel must cope with conflicting
combinations of properties - such as high toughness at very
low temperatures, or a high strength and creep resistance
at very high temperatures. This talk about steel will give an
overview from different perspectives, on how steel can meet
these challenges in the future. What requirements must the
material steel fulfill? How can steel producers reach these
requirements and stimulate new developments with modern
steels? These questions are an ongoing challenge for the steel
industry. A safe and environmentally friendly energy supply
requires sufficient qualification and an operation-related design
of existing materials, as well as new developments of steels and
their production parameters. The material steel can still provide
answers to the ever-growing demands in power engineering
and is therefore a fundamental material for use in this sector.

Efficient hot metal and steel production in Europe
Economical and competitive iron and steelmaking in Germany
and Europe is directly linked with the operation of modern,
efficient and high-performance plants and processes. This is
especially true for steel production via the coke plant-blast
furnace-converter route. To supply the blast furnaces with
the requested coke demand a new coke battery was built at
Duisburg Huckingen in Germany to double coke capacity at
this location. New technical developments were implemented
(e.g. blast furnace top closing devices) and plant technology
was improved (e.g. for coal injection) for hot metal produc-
tion in blast furnaces. Major investments in new plants were
done in the past years in the field of continuous casting also
to improve competitiveness. At the Peine site in Germany,
Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH operates the Belt Casting Technology
demonstration plant, which enables near-net-shape casting
to produce HSD steels. The process gases of an integrated iron
and steel works are now used reasonable and sustainable, but
potentials still exist.

The future begins with intelligent plants
Internet technologies have fundamentally changed our world in
many ways. Further revolutionary developments in information
and communication technology are imminent. In future, pro-
duction plants will be connected to one another via complex
automation structures. They will be decentrally structured,
act autonomously, and communicate with one another in real
time. The aim is to further increase the flexibility, resource
efficiency and ergonomy of production. These developments
will be based on cyber-physical systems and the ‘internet of
things’. This scenario describes an accelerating development,
based on intelligent aggregates and plants that are increasingly
capable of autonomously providing process and product data.
We report on the challenges faced in building a blast furnace in
India, the construction and commissioning of a stainless steel
plant, the further development of radial forging technology, and
the demands and effects of Industry 4.0 in the steel industry.

Perspectives of industrial value networks
Germany’s economy recovered faster from the economic crisis
than that of most other countries in the world, mainly thanks
to its strong industrial chains. But now, however, it is par-
ticularly important to ensure that the competitive industrial
structures in Germany remain intact in future too. The weak
domestic investment activity in both the private and public
sectors are a particular cause for concern. Investments in the
energy-intensive primary industries have even fallen below
depreciations in recent years.
This Talk about steel will examine the connections between
investments and value-creation networks from several per-
spectives: What significance do investments in the steel in-
dustry have for the future capability of the industrial network?
How large is the investment gap in Germany (and in the EU)
and is the future competitiveness of the location threatened?
And finally: What form must an intelligent industrial policy
take in order to ensure sustainable investments and growth
in regional clusters?

High-strength steels with improved toughness - potentials for the lightweight construction
Thanks to intensive research and development, steel has nu-
merous unique application-specific properties. These can be
influenced by the targeted design of alloys and appropriately
adapted heat treatments. It is thus possible to specifically
adapt strength and toughness and many other properties to
the particular production step and the particular component
requirements. This awareness has in recent years led to the
development of numerous new high-strength and ultra-high-
strength steel grades with excellent toughness properties.
Against this background, developments based on the consistent
continuation of design- and material-related light construc-
tion – and the resultant resource-conservation aspects – are
examined in this Talk about steel.
What holistic, cost-efficient and sustainable material con-
cepts does steel offer for light construction? What trends
are becoming apparent? What demands will be made of the
material steel in future?

Innovative personnel work as an engine for modern Europe
Increased employability, a well-adjusted work-life balance, and
participative management systems are important factors in
innovative personnel management. Changing conditions are
increasingly forcing companies to turn away from short-term
personnel policy measures intended to increase competitiveness
and instead develop sustainable concepts.
This Talk about steel will discuss innovative instruments in
human resources work as well as new management methods
for increasing competitiveness in the steel industry. It will
examine the industry’s strategies for ensuring that the need
for skilled workers can be met, the age-oriented structuring of
workplaces, and the effects of demographic development on
the jobs situation. A newly developed model for the sustainable
protection of health and safety at work as a central component
of modern HR work will be introduced for the first time. The
European dimension will focus on the further development
of socio-political instruments in the EU Commission’s Action
Plan for the European steel industry.

Emissions trading and climate policy 2030: Setting the course for the industrial location Europe?
Next year’s climate summit in Paris is intended to create a
roadmap for a comprehensive international climate agreement
for after 2020. Discussions on a long-term energy and climate
concept have meanwhile started in Brussels and Berlin. The
future alignment of climate policy and emission trading is
of major importance for the international competitiveness
and investment prospects of the German and European steel
industry. What are the prospects of a successful international
agreement and should the European Union take on a pioneering
role? How can climate policy and emissions trading be effec-
tively structured whilst guaranteeing the competitiveness of
energy-intensive industries? These highly topical questions
will be discussed in these Talk about steel.

Plant capability and flexibility of rolling mills - response to customer demands
The close collaboration between the European steel industry
and its customers represents a major challenge for the future.
In terms of quality, delivery periods and innovative power, it
will only be possible for the industry to assert itself in global
competition given close connections with the processing industry.
In this Talk about steel producers of flat products focus on the
challenges resulting from specific customer requirements –
operation of the rolling mill and production plants, material
flow, logistics, and the Manufacturing Execution System (MES).
Three other presentations on the subjects of hot strip, cold
strip and light construction will show how additional or new
added values can be opened up by considering the entire
value-creation chain to the end-product in close collaboration
with the customers.

Stahl erobert die WeltUnser wichtigster Werkstoff: Geschichte, Herstellung, Verwendung
Rainer Köthe
Stahl erobert die Welt
Kaum ein chemisches Element ist für Technik und Zivilisation so unverzichtbar wie Eisen. Weiterverarbeitet zu Stahl ist es der weitaus wichtigste und meistgenutzte Werkstoff und zudem das bei weitem preisgünstigste Metall. Es gibt praktisch keinen vom Menschen hergestellten Gegenstand, der kein Eisen enthält oder es bei der Produktion benötigt hat – selbst unser Körper ist auf dieses Element angewiesen. Kein Wunder daher, dass die weltweite Stahlproduktion ständig ansteigt – zumal Eisen ideal wiederverwertbar ist.
Die aufregende Geschichte und die vielfältige Verwendung von Eisen und Stahl sind das Thema dieses Buches. Der renommierte Wissenschaftsjournalist Dr. Rainer Köthe portraitiert spannend und leicht verständlich das Element, seine Entstehung in kos-mischen Feuerstürmen und seine Bedeutung in der Natur. Er zeichnet nach, wie der Mensch das Eisen immer besser zu nutzen lernte. Weitere Kapitel beschreiben, wie heute das Eisenerz aus gewaltigen Gruben gebaggert wird, wie gigantische Hochöfen Roheisen erschmelzen und wie es in Stahl verwandelt wird. Der Leser lernt einige der vielfältigen Bearbeitungsverfahren kennen, die dem Stahl die gewünschten Formen geben. Und schließlich präsentiert das aufwendig illustrierte Buch einige spektakuläre Verwendungsarten von Eisen und Stahl.
Dr. Rainer Köthe, geboren 1948, zählt zu den auflagenstärksten Wissenschaftsjournalisten Deutschlands. Über 80 Jugendsachbücher und mehr als hundert Anleitungen von Experimen-tierkästen zeugen von seiner Fähigkeit, na-turwissenschaftliche und technische Themen spannend und gut verständlich zu beschreiben. Dafür spricht auch, dass Bücher von ihm in zurzeit 29 Sprachen übersetzt wurden.
