Pohang Steel Plant
No. 3 Blast Furnace
3rd Relining Project

POSCO PLANTEC provides the best engineering services in the field of steel plants based on the experience and technology of project implementation of Pohang Steel Plant and Gwangyang Steel Plant.

Based on the experience and technology of rationalizing the facility close to the site, we carried out a large steel plant project for the 3rd relining project with Pohang Steel Plant No. 3 Blast Furnace.

Pohang Steel Plant No. 3 Blast Furnace has been transformed into a very large blast furnace with a daily production volume of 14,000 tons by establishing old facilities, increasing capacity, and improving functionality.
