Abstract

The metallurgy includes the oldest branch of technology and science of the humanity. Connected to this, the evolution of the technical installation, thermal or mechanical, has followed a similar impressing path. The iron and steel metallurgy had a fast evolution during time. The technical processes are in continuous changing, depending on humanity demands. Therefore, a study of this magnitude, embraces many aspects, including the geographic area. The present article limits only to some milestones regarding the evolution of the technologies and installations used for iron and steel manufacturing.
