This study presents the result of using melting to recover both industrial sludge slag (the main constituent of which is calcium fluoride) and water works sludge slag as fine aggregate in cement. The main characteristics of both slag and cement mortars were measured to evaluate the feasibility of using slag as aggregate. In this study, the slag replacement ratios were 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%...

for beneficiation of converter slag, the role of surface phenomena on slag composition was studied. this work includes some experimental data, which were measured for basic oxygen steel (bos) slag in isfahan steel plant. all data were collected on site in the plant. the results support the idea that surface activity plays a major role in converter slag formation. it was also a new finding that ...

The dephosphorization slag has a great potential as the secondary resources of manganese and phosphorus, while quite a large amount of slag is landfilled and simply reused such as cement. The objective of this study is to investigate the recovery of manganese and phosphorus by wet magnetic separation technique. The hot metal pretreatment slag (dephosphorization slag) generally contains a Ca3P2O...

This paper focuses on research concerning the ecotoxicological properties of granulated slag from the pilot production of gray iron with red mud addition and concrete composites with the application of this slag. Red mud is a hazardous waste generated in the production of aluminium oxide. Negative ecotoxicological tests are, therefore, one of the basic prerequisites for the ability to use granu...

Some variables that influence the slag splashing phenomenon in an oxygen steelmaking converter are numerically analyzed in this work. The effect of lance height, jet velocity, jet exit angle and slag viscosity on the washing and ejection mechanisms of slag splashing is studied in this work employing twodimensional transient computational fluid dynamics simulations. A parameter here called avera...

The present research includes the safe disposal of lead-acid batteries slag using waste materials such as red mud and fly ash. The aim of this study is to investigate the adsorption of lead removal from lead acid-batteries slag on red mud and fly ash using 2 full factorial design. The combined effects of adsorbent amount, temperature, adsorbent type and leachate solution on the lead removal ads...

To develop an efficient and green method to recycling lead slag, a novel strategy fabricate nano-lead dioxide from slag was applied by the hydro-electrometallurgy. In leaching system, optimum condition of time 100 min, 80 °C, stirring rate 500 rpm, liquid/solid ratio 20 1 mol/L methanesulfonic acid resulted in recovery 89% residue obtained without toxicity. The kinetic study revealed that shows...

Physical properties of molten slag such as viscosity, density and surface tension have a significant influence on the slag splashing process in an oxygen steelmaking converter. Particularly, viscosity determines the shear forces that rule droplets formation. Besides, stirring of the molten slag bath strongly depends on this property. In this work, the influence of viscosity on the efficiency of...

Copper smelter slag and copper smelter slag flotation tailings were leached using sulphuric acid solutions, without or with the addition of either ferric sulphate or hydrogen peroxide. Copper extraction from the slag was typically found to be twice as high as that from the slag flotation tailings. Hydrogen peroxide was determined to be the best lixiviant. Thus, copper and iron extractions were ...

As a valuable byproduct of iron-making process, blast furnace slag contains tremendous amount of sensible heat. Granulation of blast furnace slag is the first step for its heat recovery. Due to environmental and energy issues, dry centrifugal granulation has received a considerable amount of attention. However, the flight dynamics of blast furnace slag, which is of great importance for size des...
