The purpose of this study was to investigate the reuse of desulfurization slag in cement clinker production and its influence on the formation of clinker phases. The desulfurization slag that mainly contained Ca and Si was identified as non-toxic, and thus it should be suitable to be reused in clinker production. The addition of desulfurization slag increased the melt phase during clinkerizatio...

Alkaline treatment with steel slag and NaOH addition were investigated under different pH conditions for the fermentation of waste activated sludge. Better performance was achieved in steel slag addition scenarios for both sludge hydrolysis and acidification. More solubilization of organic matters and much production of higher VFA (volatile fatty acid) in a shorter time can be achieved at pH10 ...

Two liquid phases: molton metal (or alloy) and slag occur in most metallurgical systems. The slag occurring at the surface of the metal bath not only protects it against negative atmospheric effects but also enables to make many treatments necessary to achieve good quality of the material designed for shaping the casted products. In the conditions of fully controlled process (e.g. melting or re...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com rate of about 125 kg/t of the steel produced which leads to piling of the slag in the plant. This slag is generally recycled in a waste recycling plant (WRP) so as to separate the magnetic and the nonmagnetic portions by means of mechanical crushing and magnetic separation. The magnetic portion is then recycled and used in the primary steel making p...

To get suitable ladle slag which can avoid slag sticking onto the RH immersion tube during RH refining process of IF steel, the effect of composition on melting point and viscosity of RH refining ladle slag was studied by different additives which is based on CaO. The results of melting point and viscosity testing experiments indicates that, the melting point and viscosity of RH refining ladle ...

In order to examine the effect of ageing on P removal capacity, the phosphorus (P) removal capacity of three types of slag, argon oxygen decarburisation slag (AOD), blast furnace slag (BFS) and electric arc furnace slag (EAF), was examined after 0, 10, 13 and 19 months in batch experiments. The results showed that ageing reduced P removal capacity, e.g. by 78.4% for 19-month-old AOD slag. For B...

In continuous casting of steel, the interfacial gap between the mold and the solidifying shell controls heat transfer in the process and is responsible for lubrication and the prevention of cracks and other defects. Mold slag forms when mold powder added to the top surface of the steel melts, and is the best current practice to perform these important functions. The properties and behavior of t...

Slag fuming is a process of extracting zinc from molten slag in the form of metal vapor by injecting or adding a reducing source such as pulverized or lump coal, natural gas, etc. Top Submerged Lance (TSL) technology has been successfully applied to extract zinc by a fuming process from residues from the zinc industry, ISF and QSL slag and Lead blast furnace slag. A Computational Fluid Dynamic ...
