good old fashioned industrial pollution, I know it well

Please see my video of Beitai steel works, China, for more action! ruclips.net/video/jCb--7RJt2s/видео.html

This is the hottest place in town

16 Year later..

Who else is here from arcticfish?

This is a Fun job in the Snow ! 😂 HOT & COLD DONT Mix ! Learned that the Hard way ! 😂

29 year gang

Jesus!

Wounder if anyone has figured how to use the impurities yet.

RUclips keep feeding me with old ass industrial videos I'll watch them all

Men will see this and think “ hell yeah!”

YOU SLAG !!!

Here I am again, randomly wasting my time

this is just a kind of glorified vesselheim

When that hammer in shape of a punch bag or a pear hit on the bottom of the slag pot and sounds like a bell....bomm...bomm...bomm.....Especially at nighttime when town sleeps. You can hear that sound from a mile away.

Right down there in the dumping pit can find a lots of iron cakes. If collect those cakes you can make extra money.

Back when I was a kid, one of the really exciting things to do locally was to watch the slag dump at the American Smelting and Refining Company's Hayden plant. The slag tip faced highway 77 and there was a nice place you could park to watch. The slag dump was always spectacular and they always did a dump in the evening when the sun was just above the Tortillas and the tip was in shadow. Free fireworks show every time.

Who out there dumping finnish swimming pools

Screaming Jimmy in that link belt makes the whole video

i grew up in Buffalo when Bethlehem Steel was there they use to dump this right into lake Erie didn't care

RIP US steel industry.

The fact that it sounds like water is terrifying. Metal should never make a splashing sound. Instant death.

Reminds me of taking cupcakes out of the pan.

Max max vibes.

Does this thing get locked down before tipping? Also, When the wider (heavier) portion of the bowl is allowed to fall to one side does this not compress on side of the tracks over time? Creepy on an edge like that.

"I hope the plants have adapted to the heat" -climate denier

Are there any steel jobs like that in the USA these days?

my dad worked at ARMCO Steel operating locomotive moving bottle cars from blast furnace to basic oxygen furnace. earlier years ARMCO had a Foundry up from BO Furnace he went to in town of Ashland, KY was also a yard at East end of mill they switched cars in along with ore and coal yards on West End

Matka natura wszystko do ziemi przyjmie 😒

Bethlehem steel is no longer operational and sitting derelict. The Wind Creek casino was build next door and overlooks the structure. I did see a couple compartments being used for art exhibits and such, it’s a cool area with universities and tourism, someone could definitely build a successful brewery/pub and some shops within the building.

this video is old enough to be recommended to me twice now, once 8 years ago and once again today.

Slag tipping at the steel works where I worked was done by the loco that pulled the slag train it was unhooked then connected to the tipping mechanism on each stage tube by a large chain, once coupled the local would reverse slowly the stage tubs would then slowly tip. If the loco driver tried to 'gun' the engine the loco would trip thus a bold electrician would have to walk down the narrow walkway on the side of the loco to open a side panel and rest the engine and I should mention that the walkway in question was on the hot side so I've had my backside warmed a few times. My steel works was closed like many would I go back to having my backside roasted you bet I would

That's a lot of wasted energy. I have 0 idea how to harness it but it really is a lot of energy. Very cool video.

How a 16 year old video of something that happened 30 years ago lands in my feed, I'll never know. But, thank you anyway!

This is wild to see in 2023, and really makes you appreciate modern cameras. The fact that the exposure had to be turned down this much just to compensate for the slag brightness was almost like someone flipped an ND32 in suddenly... maybe even 64. We've come so far haha

Hahaha, imagine if you put your wiener in that stuff?!

While I never saw the slag being dumped, I lived in Duquesne, PA in the late 1940s. The street I lived on dead ended at the edge of a large hollow not too far from where the slag had been dumped. I think it had been stopped some time before me, because as kids, we would see how far up the slag dump we could climb. I had to be about 8 years old when I got about 50 feet up, before I lost control when the surface started to crumble causing me to start sliding back down. I turned around into a sitting, crab-like position as I slid down the hill on my butt while the rough sandpaper-like slag tore out the seat of my pants and ground my palms to raw flesh. I'll never forget that experience as long as I live and I am currently 84.

Before America completely sold out to China. 😓

I always enjoy watching videos like this, as well as other aspects of the ‘steel’ processing. Not sure why though…

That’s amazing

What a vile, dystopian vision of the hell that unregulated capitalism is. Shows clearly how greed has destroyed the earth we so desperately need to survive. The ugliest side of humanity shown here.

That looks a little dangerous.

ya great about 10,000 dollars in fuel and man power to dump 2 tiny buckets of slag very cost effective and competitive. with no new ideas or mechanical advancement or newer equipment due to extremely poor management the steel plant has to close.

Original report stated this was somewhere else. This wasn't slag this was actually molten Iron being trashed. Another Country years ago .This is fake news .

ð@ looks like a neat job!

That is a super high paying job. They would have a great retirement forever.

Another one of the those strangely satisfying videos.

My dumbass thought it said 1944 and I was like "nuh-uh" for way too long...

All the steel used in building the Golden Gate Bridge came from Bethlehem Steel. Sadly not long after this video was made, they went out of business.
