Each slag type usually contains a specific suite of elements that may be of environmental concern. In general, non-ferrous slag may have a higher potential to negatively impact the environment compared to ferrous slag, and is thus a less attractive material for reuse, based on trace element chemistry, principally for base metals.
Compressive strength, hydration kinetics and products as well as pore solution concentrations of ternary blended cements with at least 50 wt% replacement of PC by limestone and non-ferrous metallurgy slag are investigated up to 150 days.
in slag samples. Application background. Slag is a byproduct of the iron and steel making processes. It is formed during the fluxing process used to remove the non-ferrous constituents of the blast furnace charge. Slag plays an important role as raw material in the cement and construction industry.
Southwest China, as the main non-ferrous metal-producing area, accounts for 85% of the country's mineral resources. Amounts of slag containing metals were accumulated for years in mining areas of Southwest China, posing potential environmental risk implications due to the erosion and leaching by acid rain.
It is described that non-ferrous slag was used for construction of highways in Germany such as A1 near Hamburg, A7, A14, A10, A24 and also at the airport of Hamburg, which confirms the use of copper slag in this application in a large scale.
As an industrial byproduct of smelter operations, smelting slag has brought certain environmental issues including without taking safety precautions or using appropriate management. Through a thorough analysis of the literature published in the last years, the latest research progress on the characteristics, resource utilization pathways, …
Non-Ferrous Metallurgical Wastes, including copper slag, red mud, jarosite residue, zinc-bearing dust, pyrite cinder, and nickel slag, are hazardous waste products released during the metal extraction process. Metallurgical solid wastes pose significant risks to the environment due to their content of hazardous elements, which may impact …
SMS Group subsidiary Paul Wurth notes that its INBA slag granulation and dewatering system is the proven route for converting molten slag into a value-added product not only in the field of blast ...
In comparison to other non-ferrous slag sites, a study of the Hegeler Zn smelter, Illinois, America, identified a Zn-rich slag (with 28.4 wt. % Zn measured) amongst other slags where between 212 and 14,900 mg/kg was measured.

Therefore, magnetic separation and eddy current separation are applied to recover ferrous metals from ferrous slags and nonferrous metals from nonferrous slags, respectively. Additionally, accompanying elements may be incorporated in the slag and can be recovered by leaching methods [ 70 ].
The operation of a metallurgical furnace requires the safe opening and closing of the furnace taphole. In this operation, the molten phase in the furnace is allowed to flow through the tap-hole for transfer to a ladle or another vessel before the tap-hole needs to be safely closed. Until now, non-ferrous tapping operations have largely been …
The article presents an overview of the methods of processing slag from Waelz process, and various approaches employed by scientists globally, aimed at …
New Jersey, United States,- Non-ferrous metallic slag refers to a byproduct of non-ferrous metal production processes, characterized by its composition of residual materials such as oxides ...
The NFM slag used in this work originates from an industrial non-ferrous blast furnace process, post-treated in a pilot installation using high temperature treatment and quenched via water granulation.
The heat of hydration of OPC blended with non-ferrous metallurgy slag and the influence of the specific surface area of the slag on the reactivity in these systems was investigated. Heat release of blended cement pastes at early ages revealed decreasing reaction heat with increasing slag content.
Slags are by-products generated by the pyrometallurgical processing of both ferrous and non-ferrous metal ores and secondary resources (recycling). They are …
The nonferrous metals industry produces large amounts of various slag types. The objective of many producers is to sell the slag as a premium product and avoid dumping costs. Due to tighter legislation, this is becoming more challenging for certain types of slag, because the benchmark for undesired elements and components in the slag is too high.
In this study, the contents and associated soil properties of 6 metal elements (Pb, As, Cu, Zn, Ni, Cr) were measured in 63 topsoil samples in the affected areas of a typical non-ferrous metal slag field in Huili City, Sichuan Province, China. The associated soil properties of the 6 metals include Ammonium Nitrogen (NH4+-N), Nitrate (NO3−-N), …
The growing global demand for non-ferrous metals has led to serious environmental issues involving uncovered mine site slag dumps that threaten the surrounding soils, surface waters, groundwater, and the atmosphere. Remediation of these slags using substitute cement materials for ordinary Portland c …
Refractories are essential structural materials used in different furnaces in industries processing steel, cement, non-ferrous metals, glass and other high temperature goods and products. This paper deals with current practices of refractories for ferrous as well as non-ferrous industries and its future scope.

Sulfides are more common in non-ferrous slags and metals and intermetallic compounds can be found in both base-metal and ferrous slags. Carbonates are generally exclusive of ferrous slags. The chemical composition of slag depends on the furnace feed, fluxes, fuel source, and furnace conditions and efficiency of metal extraction.
