operatingBF–BOF Integrated route · Handan, Asia Pacific, China
Hebei Yongyang Special Steel Group Co Ltd makes steel by the integrated route: iron ore is smelted into liquid hot metal in a blast furnace, then refined into crude steel in a basic oxygen furnace.

The plant has a crude steel capacity of about 1.6 million tonnes per year.
