plasters are produced from a light refractory material, mainly mgo (m.p. 2800ºc), a binder, and a void forming substance for insulating purposes. different oxides from the slag penetrate into these voids and provide low melting-point phases suchasrhodonite (mnsio3) (1290ºc), tephorite (mn2sio4) (1345ºc), merwinite (ca3mgsi2o8) (1575ºc), monticellite (camgsio4) (1490ºc), and enstatite (mgsio3) (...

The phosphorus (P) removal of five combinations of dual filters consisting of blast furnace slag (BFS), argon oxygen decarburisation slag (AOD) and electric arc furnace slag (EAF) was evaluated in column experiments with domestic waste water. The columns were fed with waste water for 24 days. The column with only EAF had the best P removal performance (above 93% throughout the experiment). The ...

A transient mathematical model was developed for the description of fluid flow, heat transfer and electromagnetic phenomena involved in the production of ferronickel in electric arc furnaces. The key operating variables considered were the thermal and electrical conductivity of the slag and the shape, immersion depth and applied electric potential of the electrodes. It was established that the ...

C. X. Li, H. Li, H. Lu, W. W. Mao: State key laboratory of advanced Metallurgy, University of Science and Technology Beijing, China This work examined phosphorus enrichment in different micro areas of the earlier slag and the final slag in converter double-slag technology. The results show that: phosphorus has high enrichment in the micro-area the basictity of which is between 2 to 2,5; the pho...

Pyro-metallurgy of copper production is characterized by the output slag, which regarded as a kind solid waste. Moreover, this slag identified hazardous because it contains impurities, like Pb, As, and Cu. Obtaining dump slags in autogenous processes does not always meet requirements effective technologies, most often contain more than 1.0% need to be depleted. This work presented brief analysi...

Tile drained land with phosphorus (P)-rich topsoil is prone to P loss, which can impair surface water quality via eutrophication. We used by-products from steel and energy industries to mitigate P loss from tile drains. For each by-product, P sorption maximum (P(max)) and strength (k) were determined, while a fluvarium trial assessed P uptake with flow rate. Although two ash materials (fly ash ...

It is well documented that slag-based silicon fertilizers have beneficial effects on the growth and disease resistance of rice. However, their effects vary greatly with sources of slag and are closely related to availability of silicon (Si) in these materials. To date, few researches have been done to compare the differences in plant performance and disease resistance between different slag-bas...
