Most pig iron from the blast furnace is used to make steel. To do this, pig iron--usually molten--is combined with molten steel scrap in open hearth furnaces, or in Bessemer converters, to be refined and purified. Regardless of process, the refined and purified molten steel is poured into ladles, made into ingots, put into a soaking pit, sent to roughing mills, passed through a discountchippershredder reheating furnace, and finally sent to the finishing mills.
