ArcelorMittal Sestao launches turnkey meltshop upgrade with Danieli

As part of its “Sestao 1.6” investment program aimed at increasing productivity and producing cleaner steel, ArcelorMittal Sestao has signed a turnkey agreement with Danieli for a new fume-treatment plant and vacuum degasser (VD) at its Vizcaya plant in Spain.

ArcelorMittal Sestao launches turnkey meltshop upgrade with Danieli

The new fume-treatment plant will serve the existing EAF 1 and allow Sestao to fully exploit the potential of its two EAFs, increasing annual production up to 1.6 million tons. The facility, which will achieve dust emissions below 3 mg/Nm³ at the stack, features a refractory-free quenching tower, Danieli-patented modular filters, and variable-frequency ID fans.

The new VD station will enable high-quality clean steel production with precise chemical control and low nitrogen and hydrogen content. Its compact design allows integration into the existing meltshop, ensuring efficient ladle and process logistics while enhancing operational safety. Danieli Automation electrical and process control systems will be integrated with the existing meltshop E&A system.

The new equipment is scheduled to be operational by August 2026.
