"The blast furnace at the Pohang Works, which has been shut down, will be restarted sequentially from tomorrow"

The blast furnace of POSCO Pohang Works, which was suspended due to the 11th typhoon 'Hinnamno', is scheduled to restart sequentially from tomorrow (10th).

POSCO announced that the work to normalize the post- and post-process necessary for restarting the blast furnace, such as restarting the supply of steam, oxygen, and nitrogen, and final inspection of steel mill facilities, is proceeding without any setbacks.

POSCO plans to operate a liquefied natural gas power plant to supply steam necessary for the operation of the blast furnace, and restart the three blast furnaces that were stopped due to flooding from tomorrow.
