The rapid growth of Chinese steel manufacturing turns up to be very stunning, Although when we think about the fact that China has a population of over the 1.2 billion, we find out that the per capita steel share is approximately lower than the same within the developed countries. It's a fact that China has achieved massive progress in the steelmaking production for a long time, but it didn't deny the need to import significant amounts of it. These days, China became a big exporter of steel. Which means that China has really increased the production average of such a heavy industry, and the next days will witness more unexpected massive achievements. You have to know more about it by reading the article below.
And speaking of recent countries in this field, South Korea has made approximately 46 to 48 million tons and Brazilhas made more than a million tons, which makes us focus on the same manufacturing field in India, as when we consider a consumption of over 250 kg per capita a year, India then will be obligated to get about 300 million tons, just to reach the target of becoming a really developed and modern country. This for sure is a long term way considering the current producing ratios of approximately 50 million tons. Speaking of Indian production, it started with approximately a million tons of this metal by its independence time in 1947. But when it came to 1991" the time where the economy became so open", the production level was raised to approximately 14 million tons.
