A major Japanese steelmaker has shut down the last blast furnace at its plant in the city of Kawasaki, near Tokyo.
                
The move means the end of a history of steel production of over 100 years with blast furnaces on the Kawasaki waterfront -- part of an industrial zone that constitutes one of the country&#039;s three largest industrial areas.
                
JFE Steel halted the operation of the blast furnace at its steel mill on the city&#039;s waterfront in the Keihin Industrial Area at 3:30 a.m. on Saturday.
                
The precursor to JFE Steel began steel production using blast furnaces in the area during Japan&#039;s Taisho Era in the early 20th century.
                
Steelmaking flourished in the area to support the country&#039;s rapid economy growth later in the century and became the symbolic industry of the Keihin region.
                
But the steelmaker decided to shut down the plant&#039;s last operating blast furnace amid a shrinking domestic market and intensifying competition in production for exports.
                
The Kawasaki city government and JFE Steel are planning to convert the vast site into a hydrogen base in a joint project.
