Granulated blast furnace slag (GBF slag) is obtained by quenching molten iron slag (a byproduct of iron making) from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product. These operate at a temperature of about 1500 degrees centigrade and are fed with a carefully controlled mixture of iron ore, coke and limestone. 0000118004 00000 n Use of blast furnace slag in concrete is encouraged from an environmental perspective. 3-5), also called slag cement, is made from iron blast-furnace slag; it is a nonmetallic hydraulic cement consisting essentially of sili-cates and aluminosilicates of calcium developed in a molten condition simultaneously with iron in a blast furnace. Blast-furnace slag is defined by the American Society for Testing and Materials as "the non-metallic product consisting essentially of silicates and alumino-silicates of calcium and other bases that is "developed in a molten condition simultaneously with iron in a blast furnace." Steel slag produced from basic oxygen and electric arc furnaces accounted for the remainder of sales. 0000105165 00000 n Blast furnace slag is a by-product of iron manufacturing, via thermochemical reduction, in a blast furnace. 0000112408 00000 n 0000008520 00000 n 0000008716 00000 n 0000011306 00000 n blast furnace” [1]. 0000061826 00000 n Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) is a by-product from the blast-furnaces used to make iron. 0000011501 00000 n 0000104973 00000 n Blast Furnace Slag is gained as a derivative in the removal of iron from its ore.The procedure of removal of iron is the blast furnace. 0000009587 00000 n 0000108280 00000 n 0000110630 00000 n 0000112839 00000 n 0000104598 00000 n 0000117535 00000 n 0000104682 00000 n 0000058284 00000 n 0000113947 00000 n 0000106653 00000 n 0000073621 00000 n 0000105246 00000 n 0000108902 00000 n Blast furnace slag sand (BFS5, BFS1.2) was used. Blast Furnace Slag as a by – product Background The status of Blast Furnace Slag (BFS) has been disputed with industry for a number of years. 0000113050 00000 n 0000103953 00000 n 0000019547 00000 n 0000012770 00000 n 0000018453 00000 n While this is a new method of use in this country, the cementitious material is not new: it is an improved Portland blast-furnace slag cement. Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) The importance of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) lies in its greener way to become a substitute in concrete material.
