Mon Valley Works - Edgar Thomson Plant
Overview
Mon Valley Works is an integrated steelmaking operation that includes four separate facilities:
Clairton Plant, Edgar Thomson Plant,
Irvin Plant and Fairless
Plant.
Edgar Thomson Plant, located about 10 miles southeast of Pittsburgh in Braddock, Pa., is where basic steel production takes place at Mon Valley Works. Raw materials are combined in blast furnaces to produce liquid iron, which is then refined to create steel. Steel slabs from the facility are sent by rail to the nearby Irvin Plant in West Mifflin, Pa., where they are rolled into a number of different sheet products that serve customers in the appliance, automotive, metal building and home construction industries. Mon Valley Works has an annual raw steel production capability of 2.9 million net tons.
