Two …


Valorising Slags from Non-ferrous Metallurgy into Hybrid

Abstract The environmental impact of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) can be decreased by using alternative precursors, such as non-ferrous metallurgy slags (NFMS), which can be alkali-activated to form an inorganic polymer binder (IP). However, an IP demands the use of a high molarity alkali-solution, which is expensive, has a relative …


Geochemistry and mineralogy of metallurgical slag

Ferrous slags include blast furnace, steelmaking, and ferroalloy slags; the compositions of these slags are generally dominated by Ca and Si, some with significant Al, Fe, and/or Mg. Whereas, the composition of non-ferrous slags, mostly from base-metal production, are generally dominated by Fe and Si with significant but lesser amounts of Al ...


Utilization of ferrous slags as coagulants, filters, adsorbents

The physical and chemical constitution of ferrous slags from diverse sources is depicted in Table 1.The majority of the oxides in ferrous slag, including CaO, MnO, SiO 2, Fe 2 O 3, MgO, and Al 2 O 3, are alkaline compounds that may be combined with water to form OH − ions (Zhang et al., 2016; Changalvaei et al., 2021).
