As a basic study for recycling molten converter slag as an ordinary portland cement (OPC) by a conversion process, the reaction mechanism and the rate of the formation of $C_4AF$ which is one of the main components of OPC were investigated. The converter slag whose basicity was controlled by adding reagent grade $SiO_2$ was melted and hold for 30 minutes in MgO crucible at $1300^{\circ}C{\sim}1350^{\circ}C$. Then, the sintered CaO pellet heated at the same temperature was dipped into the molten slag and hold for $10{\sim}30$minutes. After the reaction, the crucible was cooled in air and the specimen was cut off to the horizontal direction of the crucible. The dissolution rate of $C_3A$ pellet was measured by the change of radius of the sintered $C_3A$ pellet, and the formed phase of $C_4AF$ was observed by SEM/EDX. As a result, the dissolution rate of $C_3A$ pellet into molten slag was increased from $0.75{\times}10^{-4}(cm/sec)$ at $1300^{\circ}C$ to $1.67{\times}10^{-4}(cm/sec)$ at $1350^{\circ}C$, and the mixed layer of $C_4AF$ and $C_{12}A_7$ was found between slag and $C_3A$ pellet.

석탄 가스화기 내에서 슬래그의 축적에 의한 막힘 현상 등으로 발생 가능한 조업중단을 예방하기 위해 탄의 종류에 따른 슬래그의 유동을 정확히 예측하는 것은 중요하다. 슬래그의 유동은 원료인 석탄의 회 성분 조성 그리고 가스화기 온도의 영향을 크게 받는다. 회가 용융된 형태인 슬래그의 융점 특성을 파악하여 슬래그 거동을 예측하기 위해서는 회를 조성하고 있는 주성분의 비율 뿐 아니라 소량의 성분들도 고려하여야 한다. 또한, 가스화기 조업 조건 중 수증기 분압이 슬래그 점도에 미치는 변화를 파악하여 공정 조건 확립 및 슬래그 계통 제어 로직에 반영 할 수 있다. 따라서, 대표적 열화학 평형계산 프로그램인 Factsage를 이용하여 슬래그 성분의 액상선 온도를 예측해보았다. 슬래그는 회 성분의 조성에 따라 결정 슬래그와 유리 슬래그로 나눌 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 결정 슬래그로는 Alaska Usibelli 탄을, 유리 슬래그로는 Kideco 탄의 조성을 사용하여, 가스화기 조업 조건 중 수증기의 분압에 따라 석탄 슬래그의 형성 및 점도 변화에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 결정 형성에 대한 상관관계를 예측해 보았다. 또한, 슬래그 유동에 영향을 줄 수 있는 요인으로써, 석탄의 품질을 결정하는 인자인 Base/Acid Ratio, Iron in Ash, Calcium in Ash, Silica-to-Alumina Ratio, Inron-to-Calcium Ratio를 달리 변화시켜가며 슬래그 점도 변화에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 결정 형성을 예측하였다. 이 예측결과는 향후 실험 데이터와 비교하여, 슬래그 처리 부분의 모니터링에 기초 자료로 활용될 뿐 아니라, 슬래그점도 측정 시스템의 운전 파라미터를 도출하는데 이용 가능할 것이다.

When steel contaminated with Pb, produced by the decay of natural radionuclides, is remelted, Pb distributes among the metal, slag, and gas phases. In this study, 5 wt%Pb was added to Fe and melted with CaO-SiO₂-Al₂O₃-MgO slag to investigate Pb's distribution in the metal/slag/gas. As slag basicity ((wt%CaO)/(wt%SiO₂)) increased, Pb solubility in Fe slightly increased, while Pb in the slag tended to decrease. Consequently, the slag/metal distribution ratio of Pb decreased with increasing basicity. Thermodynamic calculations revealed that the slag/Fe phase distribution ratio of Pb remained very low irrespective of the activity coefficient of PbO in the slag, consistent with the experimental results. The calculated evaporation rate of Pb in Fe-Pb was approximately 22 times that of Fe; hence, most of the Pb evaporated into the gas phase.

Smelting reduction technique in arc furnace was applied for the recovery of valuable metal such as V from LD slag. In the present study, the parameters for increasing the reduction rate and the reduction efficiency were selected by changing the oxide additives, melting temperature and basicity. The optimum condition for LD-slag reduction was achieved by $Al_2$$O_3$ addition. The reduction ratio of V was increased in increasing the basicity.

This study was intended to examine the possibility of reducing hydration heat by FA substitution and combination of slag (CGS) from coal gasification power generation (IGCC) with mixed aggregate for concrete. The analysis results showed good results if liquidity increases as the ratio of CGS increases, air volume decreases, and compressive strength is mixed up to 25% in the residual aggregate. The results showed that the heat of hydration was reduced compared to plain due to the boron content of CGS as the CGS substitution rate increased, but it was larger due to the combination with FA substitution. It was found that the heat of hydration was reduced.

This study examines the performance of pretreatment process system as the initial construction stage of the pretreatment process system to use CGS, a by-product generated in IGCC, as a concrete fine aggregate of construction materials. The process undergoes a grinding process capable of grinding to a predetermined particle size during primary grinding and a sorting plant through sieve grading of 2.5 mm or less for particle size correction. Afterwards, it is hoped that the use of coal gasification slag of Korean IGCC as a fine aggregate for concrete will be distributed and expanded by producing quality-improved CGS fine aggregate using water as a medium for removing impurities and particulates.

It is very important in the view point of resource recycling to recover valuable metals such as copper and tin from waste electric and electronic scrap. The waste electric and electronic scrap contains significant amounts of copper, tin, and so on. In this study, a new process for extracting copper and tin contained in the waste electric and electronic scrap using waste copper slag which is generated from the melting furnace of copper smelter was presented. Advantage of the proposed process is to reuse waste copper slag instead of new fluxes as slag formatives. In each experiment, the waste electric and electronic scrap and waste copper slag were melted inputting suitable amount of CaO as an additional flux. Up to 95% of copper and 85% of tin in the raw material were extracted in a Cu-Fe-Sn alloy phase.

The dry method and wet method are currently used for the recovery of platinum group metals (Pt, Rh, Pd) contained in spent automobile catalysts. The study herein aims to identify the melting condition and optimum collector metal in accordance with a comparison of each concentration change in melting waste catalysts, using Fe and Cu in a basic experiment to recover waste catalysts through application of the dry melting method. As a summarized result of the experiment herein, it was determined to be more advantageous to use Fe as a parent material rather than Cu from the aspect of recollection rate, and the concentration change rate of platinum group metals within slag was greatly enhanced at $1,600^{\circ}C$ melting condition rather than at $1,500^{\circ}C$ in terms of melting processing temperature. The mean concentration of platinum group metals - Rh, Pd and Pt - within slag after a melting process at $1,600^{\circ}C$ were 6.21 ppm, 5.98 ppm and 6.97 ppm. The Rh and Pd were 50.58% and 55.31% respectively greater than the concentration change rate of platinum group metals in slag at a melting temperature of $1,500^{\circ}C$. However, since the initial concentration of Pt within the waste catalysts was 12.9 ppm, is relatively low, it was difficult to compare concentration change rates after the melting process.

As a basic study on the conversion of molten converter slag to the ordinary portland cement, the effects of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ addition on the interface reaction between solid CaO and molten converter slag has been studied. Alumina added converter slag whose basicity was controlled to 1 and 2 was melted and hold for 30 minutes in MgO crucible at $1500^{\circ}C$. Then sintered CaO pellet heated at the same temperature was dipped into the molten slag and held for 30minutes. After the reaction, the crucible was cooled in air and the specimen was cut off to the horizontal direction of the crucible. The dissolution rate of CaO pellet with the addition of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ was measured by the change of the radius or sintered CaO pellet and the interface layer was observed by SEM/EDX. As a result. At the basicity 2 slag, thickness of created $C_{3}S$ layer increased 3.5 times and quantity of $C_{6}AF_{2}\;or\;C_{4}AF$ phase increase 2 times than baisicy 1 slag.
