The burnout of the mixer and the subsequent pouring of pig iron did not affect the production processes of the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol. According to the press service of the Metinvest management company, the burnout of the mixer will not affect the environment and the production processes of the plant. Currently, a backup method of delivering pig iron from the blast furnace to the converter shop and mixer No. 2 is used.
