air cooled blast furnace slag is a by product made of gradually air cooled molten blast furnace slag, and is often stored in stockpiles near the iron mills and usually occupy a wide area around the iron mills. from this perspective the further use of these materials can have its own merits. air cooled blast furnace slag can be used in asphalt mixtures because of their proper frictional properti...

1. Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) is a by product of the steel industry. Blast furnace slag is defined as “the non-metallic product consisting essentially of calcium silicates and other bases that is developed in a molten condition simultaneously with iron in a blast furnace.” [1] In the production of iron, blast furnaces are loaded with iron o...

Abstract The effects of fly ash, Air Cooled Blast Furnace Slag (ACBFS), and silica fume on cement compressive strength are examined. concrete is studied by the addition air-cooled blast furnace slag fume. effect ACBFS, was investigated. content reduced 25%, 22.50%, 20%, 17.50%, respectively; ash used to replace 40%, 60% coarse aggregate; partially replaced 2.5%, 5%, 7.50% content. Contrarily, l...

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...

Current blast furnace technology is a two-stage ironmaking process that requires that iron ore concentrate first be formed into pellets, fired at 1260°C, cooled, transported to the blast furnace, and then re-heated to approximately 1500°C to produce pig iron. This heating, cooling, and then reheating wastes a great deal of energy, which would be saved if the ironmaking process had only a single...

Stabilisation is a broad sense for the various methods employed and modifying the properties of a soil to improve its engineering performance and used for a variety of engineering works. In today‟s day soil stabilisation is the major problem for civil engineers, either for construction of road and also for increasing the strength or stability of soil and reduces the construction cost. In this t...

The blast-furnace process consists of a large number of processes that are physicochemical, thermal and mechanical interconnected processes. In addition to main processes consisting of iron oxides reduction, pig iron and slag melt creation, also realised are fuel combustion, gas flow, charge and melt flow, dissociation and other reactions in the solid and liquid phases. Inputs to the blast-furn...
