Although Portland cement is the most widely used binder in the stabilisation/solidification (S/S) processes, slag-based binders have gained significant attention recently due to their economic and environmental merits. In the present study, a novel binder, reactive MgO activated slag, is compared with hydrated lime activated slag in the immobilisation of lead and zinc. A series of lead or zinc-...

A comparative technical and environmental evaluation of products arising from the stabilization/solidification of secondary lead metallurgical slag into a cement matrix was performed. Provided samples of an industrial slag generated in the process of recovery of lead from automotive batteries (Engitec CX process), were used in experimental work. Characterization of slag by X-ray Diffraction (XR...

steel slags are the by products of steel industries, which forms during reduction process of iron melting. the chemical composition of it changes depending to the melting procedure. its mineralogical composition also varies based on the cooling procedure. two different types of steel slag were used as absorbing bed for various concentrations of pb2+ ions in the form of lead chloride, and the co...

a field study was conducted around pb slag contaminated sites in ibadan, nigeria to assess theintake of trace metals by cows reared around the contaminated sites as indication of heavy metals contamination.levels of pb, cd, cu and zn in blood, milk and faeces were determined in 20 cows exposed to the sites and 20reference cows from uncontaminated areas. chemical analysis of pasture grasses and ...

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 ...

Slag-based silicate fertilizer has been widely used to improve soil silicon- availability and crop productivity. A consecutive early rice-late rice rotation experiment was conducted to test the impacts of steel slag on soil pH, silicon availability, rice growth and metals-immobilization in paddy soil. Our results show that application of slag at a rate above higher or equal to 1 600 mg plant-av...
