MASS Iron and Steel Industry Company

MASS Iraq Iron and Steel Industry Company

(MASS) Iraq Factory for Iron and Steel Industry is one of the mega strategic projects of MASS Industrial Investment Group Ltd., which contributes to the reconstruction of the economic and industrial infrastructure in our country in an accurate scientific manner using the latest modern technologies in response to the demand for it,in the reconstruction of Kurdistan and Iraq.

Sources of all equipment and machineries of this plant are the Italian company Danieli

Danieli is considered one of the most important and largest international companies in the field of the iron and steel industry, with the aim of optimizing energy use, increasing production volume, and paying more attention to preserving the environment. All production stages operate automatically with the latest contemporary technologies under the supervision of experienced people, foreign and local experts, engineers, and technicians in the field of the iron and steel industry.

The production stages consist of the following sections

Responsible for receiving and inspecting all kinds of Scrap, When the Scrap arrives at the plant, inspections are carried out using a special scanner to ensure that there are no radiations.

The melting section has a capacity of 1.25 tons of melted scrap per year, using Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) and Ladle Furnace (LF).

This unit consists of: extending (reinforcing steel) bars with a capacity of 1,250,000 tons, with different sizes starting with (10,12,14,16,20,22,25,28,32) mm.

This Section is responsible for supplying all requirements of the Melt Shop and Rolling Mill.

It consists of four laboratories, physical and chemical tests, and analyzes are carried out stage by stage, using the best analytical and examination equipment.

Quality control covers all production units in our advanced laboratories equipped with advanced equipment.

Scrap Department

Responsible for receiving and inspecting of all kinds of Scrap

When the Scrap arrives at the plant, inspections are carried out using a special scanner to ensure that there are no radiations. Then their weights are taken and sent directly to the sorting area to be classified into three groups (light, medium, and heavy).

Most of the light scrap is sent to the compression device to be compressed into cubic to reduce storage space and gain the appropriate weight.

All procedures are carried out in the scrap yard, which is equipped with all appropriate machines and equipment, as it is managed by expert engineers and technicians.

In the end, the classified scrap must be re-inspected for radiation, and then it is ready to be transported to scrap melting area.

Melting Section

The melting section has a capacity of 1.25 tons of melted scrap per year, using Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) and Ladle Furnace (LF), then the melted steel is transferred to Continues Casting Machine (CCM) from which the melted steel is poured into molds of different sizes to produce rebar, which is a central product of steel industry.

Extending section (Rolling)

This unit consists of: extending (reinforcing steel) bars with a capacity of 1,250,000 tons, with different sizes starting with (10,12,14,16,20,22,25,28,32) mm, according to American and British quality standards (ASTM-BS-ISO), being produced in different sizes.

Industrial Services Section

This Section is responsible for supplying all requirements of the Melt Shop and Rolling Mill it consists of the following units:

  1.  Air Separator Unit: Responsible for supply of Nitrogen, Argon, and Oxygen gases, and provides oxygen to the Melt Shop (MS) department, Scrap department, and Oxygen bottle filling department for use in the local market.

  2. Air Compressor Unit: It provides all unit requirements for compressing air at different pressures using large air compressors, dryers, and advanced technological filters.

  3. Water filtration unit: It consists of four units.

     

  4. Smoke or Dust treatment unit: This section treats smoke or dust using the most advanced technological filters in accordance with environmental laws to protect our project in a green environment.

  • Water filtration unit, in a manner appropriate for use in the project.
  • Melt Shop water filtration, the water is filtered and cooled in a manner appropriate for use of the MS.
  • Rolling Mill water filtration, the water is filtered and cooled in a manner appropriate for use of the RM.
  • Water waste Filtration in a manner commensurate with the environment.

Laboratory and Quality Control

It consists of four laboratories, and physical and chemical tests, and analyzes are carried out stage by stage, using the best analytical and examination equipment. Material checks are carried out at a rate of an inspection per hour of production. A sample of the final product is analyzed by a government-accredited institution of quality control.

Quality control and quality assurance

Quality control covers all production units in our advanced laboratories equipped with advanced equipment as stated below:

  1. Melt Shop Laboratory (MS)

Responsible for treating molten steel in accordance with international standards by conducting heat checks for several times (4-5) examining and providing instructions for the purpose of adjusting chemical contents in accordance with international standards (Annex No. 1-2).

2. Rolling Mill Laboratory (RM)

Responsible for checking the chemical contents and physical strength of steel bars (tensile capacity, bearing capacity, bending, radius, and chemical content), these checks are carried out every hour of production (Annex No. 3).

3. Hydraulic System Laboratory

Responsible for analyzing the water and oil used to conduct the examination of the projects.

Finally, the quality control prepares a certificate for all products in the final stages (Certificate Annex 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 25, 28, and 32).
