Slags from the ferrous and nonferrous metallurgical industries have been used to treat toxic contaminants in water and wastewater. Using slag as a recycling or renewable resource rather than a waste product has environmental and economic benefits. Recycled smelter slags can be used in both in situ and ex situ treatment. However, their …
The wastewater contained a significant amount of iron and manganese content that was filtered out by the slag granules. X-ray fluorescence and x-ray diffraction analysis show that the wastewater treatment process changes the chemical phase composition of slag in addition to the absorption/adsorption of various chemicals within …
Along with iron and steel production, large amount of slag is generated. Proper management on the iron- and steelmaking slag is highly demanded due to the high cost of direct disposal of the slag to landfill, which is the most adopted management approach. In this article, the potential application of iron- and steelmaking slag has …
Therefore, utilization of copper slag for recovering iron can be used to feed the steel plant, stimulating its resurrection. This can also help in the waste management of slag, thus reducing environmental pollution. Most slags contain 40 wt.% iron, and extraction of this iron from CS is ideal [ 70 ]. 2.2.
This nonmetallic slag material can either be crushed and screened for aggregate use (steel slag aggregates), or sintered and recycled as flux material in the iron and steel furnaces.
Iron and non-ferrous metal recycling. Slag can be used directly for iron, made after the iron ore, iron chloride pellets production and recycling non-ferrous metals …
Over the past decades, with the rapid growth of industrialization, the higher volume of byproducts (slag) generated from iron/steel production draw attention to the need for its recycling in an increasingly efficient way.
In order to recycle LF slag as a flux in secondary steelmaking, additive chosen should not affect the sulfide capacity and the inclusion absorption capacity of slags. The use of alumina-based additives prevents powdering of slag and, at the same time, increases the alumina content of slag.
Slag is a by-product generated during manufacturing of pig iron and steel. It is produced by action of various fluxes upon gangue materials within the iron ore during the process of pig iron making in blast furnace and steel manufacturing in steel melting shop. Primarily, slag consists of calcium, magnesium, manganese and aluminium silicates and oxides in …
Many researchers have presented different flowcharts representation of steel/iron scrap recycling processes. For instance, in a flowchart of steel scrap recycling process ended in iron rods as the ...

The Association for Iron & Steel Technology (AIST) is a non-profit entity with 16,600 members from more than 70 countries. AIST is recognized as a global leader in networking, education and sustainability programs for advancing iron and steel technol
It is expedient to apply for recycling of Waelz slag the reduction smelting with obtaining of pig iron, slag suitable for construction industry and zinc-lead fume.
About EAF Slag. EAF slag is a rock-like material generated during the steel-making process. Approximately 130 facilities across the United States generate EAF slag. EAF slag is used as an alternative to rock fragments, both in encapsulated uses (e.g., contained in concrete) and unencapsulated uses (e.g., loose ground cover material).
The molten slag, which absorbs much of the sulfur from the charge, comprises about 20 percent by mass of iron production. Figure 1 presents a general schematic, which depicts the blast furnace feedstocks and the …
Solid wastes in steel plants are essential by-products generated during various processing steps involved in the production of iron and steel. Solid wastes generated by integrated iron and steel works cause environmental pollution and therefore must be discarded. Until the last decade, the slag, dust and sludge generated by …
The iron and steel industry has a long tradition of bulk reuse of slags for a range of construction applications. Growing interest in recent years has seen slag resource recovery options extend to critical raw material recovery and atmospheric carbon capture.
As a fundamental study to develop a technology for mass cultivation of benthic seaweeds by utilizing steelmaking slag, this work aims to find a cost-effective method to promote Fe release from slag to water. Two municipal green wastes, tangerine peel and used tea leave, are used as additives.
To improve the efficiency of iron recovery from steel slag and reduce the wear-and-tear on facilities, a new method was proposed by adding a secondary screen sizer to the magnetic separation process according to grain size distribution of magnetic iron (M-Fe) in the slag. The final recycling efficiency was evaluated by calculating the …
Copper smelter slag can be effectively recycled into pig iron and glass. Thermodynamics and phase diagrams were employed for carbothermal reduction of slag. The process was optimized and preferred regime of slag reduction was identified. Results can help sustain the mining and metallurgical industry.
The internal recycling process of BOF slag which is one of the huge solid wastes from iron and steel industry was emphasized. Based on the four scenar…
Slag was processed by 28 companies servicing active iron and steel facilities or reprocessing old slag piles at about 129 processing plants (including some iron and steel plants with more than one slag-processing facility) in 33 States, including facilities that import and grind unground slag to sell as ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS).
By integrating carbon mineralization technology into the iron and steel industry, which emits CO 2, transportation costs can be effectively reduced. Furthermore, the reutilization of slag generated during the steel and iron manufacturing processes can significantly alleviate the strain on landfills [21].
Therefore, it is of great significance to continuously optimize the recycling process of iron and steel slag and waste heat recovery technology.
