Slags from steel-making industry have been recycled at a target rate of 95% and most of them are recycled as media-contact type such as fill and cover materials in Korea. However, as they contain free phase CaO during their generation, they may not only expand and collapse upon contact with water, but high pH leachate and heavy metals leaching may occur. In this study, the Korean leaching procedure (KLP) and up-flow percolation test were performed for the samples collected from 17 steel-making production plants in Korea. The waste quality criteria were met in all tests, but pH of the samples was above 10. There are no regulations on the pH of leachate in most of the countries, however, Germany, Italy, and Australia have set a pH range of 10 to 13 for the leachates. Although slag leachate cannot be considered hazardous based only on its high pH, it is necessary to reduce the pH of leachate to minimize the impact on the surrounding environment. Furthermore, conflicting regulations on wastes handling and management in Korea created confusion on the types of wastes subject to recycling. Therefore, an appropriate management plan for steel-making slags needs to be established. To this end, this study attempted to provide a guideline for managing steel-making slag waste by considering international guidelines and current management practices in Korea.

Most of the slags generated from steel-making industry in Korea are recycled into media-contact aggregates such as fill and cover materials. For their use as media-contact aggregates, the slags must meet not only the waste quality criteria, but also the Daphnia magna acute toxicity test criteria. In this study, Korean Leaching Test ES 06150.e (Korea), Japanese Leaching Test JIS K 0058-1(Japan), Detuch Leaching Test DIN 19529 (Germany), Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (USA) were conducted for batch leaching test of slags from 6 Korean steel-making companies. In addition, Korean Standard up-flow percolation test (ES 06151.1) mimicking field conditions was conducted to assess the impact of the slag leachate on the surrounding environment indirectly. Heavy metals such as Cr⁶⁺ and Zn²⁺ were detected from both extractant and leachate samples, but all of them did not exceed waste quality criteria of each country. However, Daphnia magna acute toxicity tests using the leachate samples from up-flow percolation test with slag alone and slag/natural soil conditions exceeded ecotoxicity standard (TU=2) due to their high pH (11.3-12.5). After neutralizing the pH of the slag leachate to 6.5~8.5, the Daphnia magna mortality and immobilization were reduced to satisfy ecotoxicity standard. As the reducing pH of slag leachate would be extremely difficult, appropriate recycling management considering the physicochemical characteristics of he slags should be stuided further.

Steel slag produced in steel making process is divided with electric arc furnace slag and converter slag. Compared with the blast furnace slag, converter slag has the expansibility due to the reaction with water and free CaO. Therefore it is specified in Standard Specification for Concrete in Korea that steel slag aggregate must not be used in concrete. In this study, we treat electric arc furnace slag aggregate(EAFSA) for concrete before and after several aging process to reduce expansibility. The fundamental properties are measured, which are specific gravity, unit weight, abrasion value and immersion expansion ratio, as concrete aggregate. To understand the suitability of EAFSA for concrete, we made the concrete with EAFSA and then determined the strength and the volume change in EAFSA concrete. From the results EAFSA treated with steam aging process has potentiality for concrete aggregate.

In this paper, high strength pressure vessel steels having the same chemical compositions were manufactured by the two different steel-making processes, such as vacuum degassing(VD) and electro-slag remelting(ESR) methods. After the steel-making process, they were normalized at $955^{\circ}C$, quenched at $843^{\circ}C$, and finally tempered at $550^{\circ}C$ or $450^{\circ}C$, resulting in tempered martensitic microstructures with different yielding strengths depending on the tempering conditions. Low-cycle fatigue(LCF) tests, fatigue crack growth rate(FCGR) tests, and fracture toughness tests were performed to investigate the fatigue and fracture behaviors of the pressure vessel steels. In contrast to very similar monotonic, LCF, and FCGR behaviors between VD and ESR steels, a quite difference was noticed in the fracture toughness. Fracture toughness of ESR steel was higher than that of VD steel, being attributed to the removal of impurities in steel-making process.

There is high probability of steel corrosion on the reinforced concrete exposed to marine environment by penetration of chloride ion. When making concrete structure with slag as admixture in marine environment, salt damage can be prevented. Therefore, this paper presents experimental results of steel corrosion resistance of slag concrete considering marine environment through half-cell potential method which is one of the nondestructive test. As a result of half-cell potential experiment, it was assumed that every specimen exposed to marine environment was not corroded, and as a result of destroying specimens, it was confirmed that there was no corrosion in specimens.

제강슬래그와 석회석을 이용하여 비소로 오염된 농경지 토양으로부터 비소 용출을 안정화 시키는 배치 및 대형 칼럼 실험을 실시하여, 제강슬래그와 석회석이 토양 내 비소안정화에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있음을 입증하였다. 토양의 비소 농도가 토양오염우려기준 농도의 약 2배(12.3 mg/kg)인 전남 광양 주변 초남광산 주변에 위치한 밭토양을 대상으로 안정화 실험을 실시하였으며, 안정화제로 사용한 제강슬래그 이화학분석 결과 비소 공침 효과가 높은 Ca, Fe, Al, Mg 산화물 함량이 70% 이상을 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 안정화제 종류별 비소 용출 저감 효과를 규명하고 최적 안정화제 주입 비율을 선정하기위한 배치실험을 실시하였다. 오염토양 대비 석회석(또는 제강슬래그)의 첨가 비율을 1, 2, 3% 로 설정하여 비소 용출 저감 효율을 규명하는 실험을 실시하였으며, 석회석과 제강슬래그를 다양한 비 율로 혼합한 혼합안정화제도 실험에 사용하였다. 배치실험 결과 오염토양으로부터 용출되는 비소 농도는 1% 와 3% 석회석 첨가에 의해 안정화제를 첨가하지 않은 오염 토양의 비소 용출 농도 대비 각각 51%, 62% 감소하였다. 1%와 3% 제강슬래그를 오염토양에 첨가한 경우 비소 용출 농도는 각각 46%, 52% 감소하였다. 석회석 1%+제강슬래그 1%, 석회석 1%+제강슬래그 2%, 석회석 2%+제강슬래그 1%를 첨가하여 실험한 경우, 비소 용출농도는 각각 63%, 62%, 72% 감소하였다. 비소 용출 농도 및 용출 누적량을 계산하여 안정화공법에 의한 비소 오염 토양의 장기적 안정화를 예측하고자 인공강우에 의한 연속 용출 실험을 실시하였다. 배수시스템 및 격자형의 하부 스크린이 설치된 직경 15 cm, 높이 100 cm 의 대형 아크릴 칼럼을 제작하였으며, 용출시험 결과로부터 비소 용출 저감 효과가 뛰어난 석회석 2%+제강슬래그 1%를 혼합하여 연속 칼럼 실험의 안정화제로 사용하였다. 안정화제를 첨가하지 않은 칼럼의 경우 인공강우에 의한 비소 용출 농도는 시간이 지남에 따라 약 $50-80\;{\mu}g/L$ 를 유지하였다. 2% 석회석과 1% 제강슬래그를 오염토양과 혼합한 칼럼의 경우 비소 용출 농도는 1년 이내에 80% 이상 감소하였으며, 지하수 생활용수기준치인 $50\;{\mu}g/L$ 보다 낮게 나타나 오염토양으로부터의 비소의 안정화 효과는 매우 높은 것으로 나타났다. 석회석과 제강슬래그의 비소 안정화 기작을 규명하기위해 석회석과 제강슬래그를 3가비소(arsenite) 용액과 혼합하여 반응시 켜 공침된 광물 결정에 대하여 SEM/EDS 분석을 실시한 결과 방해석($CaCO_3$) 이외에 포틀랜다이트(portlandite)와 칼슘-비소 산화물(Ca-As-O 계열)이 추가로 생성된 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 추가 생성 광물에 의한 비소 포획이 주요 비소 고정 기작인 것으로 나타났다.

The behavior of hydrogen in the steel making process was investigated. The relation between the composition of ladle slag and hydrogen concentration in molten steel was considered. The hydrogen distribution ratio between ladle slag and molten steel was increased with increasing basicity of the slag; it was about 20 when the basicity of slag was 15. Hydroxyl capacity measured from the hydrogen distribution ratio between slag and the molten steel was comparatively corresponding to the value of hydroxyl capacity measured by the equilibrium reaction of slag and $H_2O$ gas. However, it is considerably different from the value calculated by regular solution model. The influence of hydrogen on a sticking type breakout is considered. The effect of hydrogen and $H_2O$ gas on the crystallization behavior of mold powder was investigated by DHTT (Dual hot thermocouple technique). As a result, it was proved that mold powder could be crystallized by $H_2O$ gas in the atmosphere. Therefore, it is concluded that $H_2O$ gas in the atmosphere can be a possible cause of the sticking type breakout that occasionally occurs in the continuous casting process.

Fe-V is used as raw material of vanadium in the steel making process. The purpose of this study, Fe-V is to replace the $VO_{4}$. So the distribution behavior of vanadium in $VO_{4}$ of the steel investigated. The distribution ratio of the vanadium where potential of the free oxygen ion will increase in slag decreased. When CaO and MgO content which is a basic oxide from CaO-$SiO_2$-FetO-MgOsatd. slag increases, S distribution ratio increases. CaO-$SiO_2$-FetO-MgOsatd. slag better than CaO-$SiO_2$-$Al_2O_3$-MgO slag is the recovery of vanadum and desulfurization.
