OBJECTIVE
The Workshop is intended to bring together scientists and engineers from Japan and Korea to have an insight into the latest developments in science and technologies in ironmaking, steelmaking, environment, and eco-process and provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and opinions in the area of innovative, creative and challenging processes.

THEME
The theme of the workshop covers a broad spectrum in relation to ironmaking and steelmaking. As the workshop emphasizes the exchange of ideas and cross-fertilization among participants, it is encouraged not only to present completed work but also to bring up ideas that are not proven but challenging, ongoing works which seek peer advice, and technical or theoretical difficulties encountered during particular research in progress.
