The metallurgical processes connectedwith the refining of steel are now wellestablished and the ability to meet therequirements of quantity production andquality combined with the ease withwhich scrap steel can be used as the rawmaterial make this process admirablefrom many points of view; In the openhearth furnace the ratio of scrap to pigiron charged may be as high as 75 percent, but in the electric furnace it readilyapproaches 100 per cent.
