How iron is made
The European iron workers knew the Easterners had better iron, but not the processes involved in fashioning stronger iron products. Entire nations launched efforts to discover the process. The first known European breakthrough in the production of cast iron, which led quickly to the first practical steel, did not come until 1740.

Production of Iron And Steel
The most commonly used process for converting pig iron into steel is the basic oxygen process. In this process, pig iron and up to about 30% steel scrap is charged into a barrel-shaped refractory-lined converter into which an oxygen lance is inserted as shown in the below figure. Steelmaking in the basic-oxygen furnace.
