Blast furnace slag(BFS) is a by-product generated during the manufacture of pig ion, and is divided into water-cooled slag(WS) and air-cooled slag(AS) by the coking method of BFS. In this study, concrete specimens with ternary binders were produced at the various replacement levels of cement by AS. Various mechanical properties of concrete, such as compressive and split tensile strengths, absorption and water permeable pore, were measured. In addition, the chloride ions penetration resistance and carbonation resistance were tested to evaluate the durability of concrete incorporating AS. The experimental data indicated that the use of AS up to a maximum of 10% replacement level enhanced the concrete performance. However, a higher replacement of AS exhibited poor mechanical properties and concrete durability.

This experimental study presents the strength properties of mortar using the blast-furnace slag sand. The mix disign of this study is based on the each three classes of unit water; (250, 275, 300)kg/㎥ and four classes of W/C; (45, 50, 55, 60)% and substitution rate(0, 25, 50, 75, 100)%. It gives following result. As W/C ratio increase, the strength is decrease. In case of mortar using air-cooled blast-furnace slag sand, the 3-days and 7-days compression strength is increase as substitution rate is higher. But in case of the mortar using the quenched blast-furnace slag sand, the compression strength is decrease as substitution rate is higher.

In this study, earlier analyzed tetrapod, one of an original group of offshore constructions studied for manufacturability of the concrete using the properties of steel making slag aggregate. steel making slag aggregate assessment, RCS and Blast Furnace Slag : the 20 mm air-cooled slag and combinations by 50 %, aggregate properties on the most appropriate for the properties of recycled aggregate concrete optimal mix, and assessing it. Properties of concrete used to be derived are judged as to bury the studies show that the hollowing-out of the RCS, plastic sole use is in the workability of the aggregate, plastic in the 20 mm slag also assessed to be a slight disadvantage, but RCS by mixing air-cooled coarse and 50 percent to 20 percent 50 mm. Thus, steel making slag marine structures using recycled aggregate, in rapid chilled slag or air-cooled slag. The sole use of the aggregate them than to combine the aggregate of concrete. After they satisfy the quality standard quality shall be used will aggregate steel making slag who meet the criteria concrete manufacturing in general or par with the aggregate of concrete. Performance was assessed as to develop a more than that.

The objective of this study was to attest the feasibility of the utilization of the blast furnace slag, quenched with water as a source of silicate fertilizer. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of quenched slag and its particle size distribution on rice plant growth over the corresponding air-cooled slag of milled commercial silicate fertilizer. The yields of rice were slightly higher in quenched slag than in the commericial air-cooled slag, however, no significant statistical difference was observed. The silica content of rice plants through the growing period was high in quenched slag in any tested particle sizes. This indicated that the quenched slag might release silica fastly in soil. On the other hand, the available silica content retained in soil was high in air cooled slag, which implied that the silica of air-cooled slag was low acting. The results suggested that the quenched slag may be potentially utilized as a source of silicate fertilizer.

In this study, a replacement ratio of blast furnace slag coarse aggregate and a water binder ratio by an optimum combination of PHC file was investigated. As a results, the target strength 78.5MPa was altogether satisfied in a mix proportion 28-G100-SG0 and W/B ratio 26 %. The surface rupture was generated in 28-G0-SG100 combination after curing with the autoclave. According to the result of measuring the ingredient, the majority were the MgOH2 hydrate.

Although slag has an enough potential as the secondary resources due to its high content of iron, quite a large amount of slags are simply landfilled when market prices of iron and steel are not so beneficial. The purpose of this study is to investigate the basic characteristics regarding the recovery of iron content from slag by magnetic separation method for the enhancement of its recycling rate. Three kinds of slags such as blast furnace slag, water-cooled converter slag, and air-cooled converter slag were tested taking the strength of magnetic field, revolving speed of drum, and feeding rate of slag as the influential factors on the magnetic separation. For blast furnace slag, the recovery of iron was observed to increase as drum speed and feeding rate were lowered. For water-cooled converter slag, iron recovery was raised as feeding rate was increased and drum speed was lowered. Also, finer slag particles were observed to be more favorable for the higher recovery of iron content. Regarding air-cooled converter slags, higher iron recovery was accomplished when both feeding rate and drum speed were increased or decreased. In addition, when the magnetic field strength was increased the iron recovery was raised, however, the iron grade of separated product was observed to diminish because of the co-separation of impurities.

This study was designed to evaluate the feasibility of direct application of quenched slag, as a silicate fertilizer byproduct of iron and steel industry. A field experiment was conducted on a low silica content paddy soil and its effect was compared to over corresponding air-cooled slag of milled commercial silicate fertilizer on rice plant growth and yields. The yields of rice were slightly higher in the commercial air-cooled slag than in the quenched slag, however, there was no significant statistical difference. The silica content of rice plants at harvest was higher in commercial silicate fertilizer than that of quenched slag. The available soil silica was high in quenched slag at the early growing stage, however, at harvest higher in air-cooled slag, which meant that the quenched slag might release silica quickly in soil. This results indicated that the slag could be considered resource as a silicate fertilizer.

Among all the slags, ladle furnace slag (LFS) is reducing slag generated from electric arc furnace. After cooled rapidly by high-pressured air (atomizing technology), LFS has more amorphous phase than slow cooled slag. Therefore, it shows higher reactivity than another recycling slag. This material also is named by rapid cooling LFS (RC-LFS). Pulverized RC-LFS should be fully understood. This paper deal with the present some basic experimental properties and discussions about the setting time of pulverized RC-LFS with different gypsum under the various temperatures. According to the experimental results, the pulverized RC-LFS with gypsum can hydrate in a low-temperature environment, even though the initial and final setting time are delayed.

The PHC pile utilizing the air-cooled blast-furnace slag as coarse aggregate was studied. This research was progressed with the range from the indoor mixing design evaluation into the actual goods production. The physical properties of the PHC pile are determined to satisfy through the appropriate mixing design adjustments. However, it should eliminate the aggregates including CaO and MgO in SG when it utilize in an AC (autoclave) type manufacturing process. It satisfied the bending moment, shear strength, and compressive strength of KS F 4306 except the surface states of the pile.

This study investigated the environmental risk for up-cycling of air-cooled ladle furnace slag (LFS) and evaluated the mortar compressive strength of binary and ternary blended cements using LFS of 3, 5, 10 wt%. Based on the Soil Environment Conservation Act standard, there was no environmental risk of the up-cycling of LFS. Results of mortar compressive strength assesment showed that the compressive strength of two blended cements using LFS of lower than 5 wt% was about 1.1 times superior to that of un-substituted cement (ordinary portland cement, OPC); however the compressive strength of those with LFS of 10 wt% decreased with 10% compared with that of OPC.
