Turkish company Tosyalı Holding announced that its Algerian subsidiary Tosyali Algerie has set a new world record for annual direct reduced iron (DRI) production from a single direct reduced iron module. In 2025, Tosyali Algerie's Module 2 produced 2.43 million tons, setting a new global benchmark during its first year of operation, demonstrating exceptional achievements.
In addition to this achievement, Tosyali Algerie's 1st DRI Module also delivered outstanding results in 2025, ranking third globally in annual DRI production, further highlighting Tosyali's leadership and scale in direct iron production recovery.
Since 2020, Tosyali's Algerian operations have broken the world record for DRI production every year, reflecting sustained improvements in operational efficiency and plant reliability.
The record second module, supplied by DRI technology developer Midrex Technologies, is capable of producing both hot DRI and cold DRI, providing high performance flexibility.
Integration with EAF improves efficiency and reduces emissions
The second DRI Tosyali module is integrated with the new Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) via a hot transfer conveyor, allowing hot direct reduced iron to be continuously fed into the smelter. This configuration increases productivity while delivering energy savings and reduced emissions.
