The sulfur element (S element) comes from the ore and fuel coke of steelmaking. It is a harmful element in A573 grade 70 plate etc. steel. Sulfur exists in steel in the form of iron sulfide (FeS). FeS and Fe form a low melting point (985℃) compound. The hot working temperature of steel is generally above 1150 - 1200℃, so when the steel is hot working, the premature melting of FeS compound causes the workpiece to crack, which is called "hot brittleness". It reduces ductility and toughness of steel and causes cracks during forging and rolling. Sulfur is also detrimental to welding performance and reduces corrosion resistance.

According to a statistical study, Iran has decided to produce 33 million tons of steel in its calendar year (from March 20, 2020). A study of the performance of the mining sector affiliated to the mining and mining development and transformation organization of Iran (imidro) in the first month of the year (March 20 to April 20) shows that this month produced 5.4% of the 33 million tons produced at the end of this year. In the first month of this year, relevant enterprises in the country produced about 1797927 tons of steel, including A573 grade 70 plate, an increase of 1% over the same period last year.
