Iron Slag: A Valuable Step Towards Resource Conservation and Environmental Protection with Kavian Steel of East Asia Steel

Kavian Steel Complex of East Asia , as one of the pioneers of the steel industry in the country, provides its customers with a wide range of high-quality steel products, including iron slag, iron oxide, and cement clinker.

• What is iron slag?

Iron slag is a non-metallic material produced during the iron and steelmaking process. This material is composed of impurities in iron ore such as silicates and metal oxides. During the melting of ore in the furnace, these impurities, due to their lower density, float on the surface of the molten material and, after cooling, solidify into large, solid masses called slag.

• Benefits of using iron slag:

1. Affordable price: Compared to virgin raw materials such as iron ore, iron slag is much cheaper. This makes its use in the production of steel and other products more economical.
2. Reduced consumption of ore: The use of iron slag as a raw material in steel production helps to reduce the consumption of iron ore and conserve natural resources.
3. Reduced pollution: Recycling iron slag and reusing it in the steel production process helps to reduce waste and environmental pollution caused by the extraction and processing of new ore.
4. High quality: High-quality iron slag has a low percentage of impurities and carbon, making it a suitable material for producing high-quality steel.
5. Diverse applications: In addition to being used in steel production, iron slag is also used in various industries such as construction, road construction, and agriculture.

• Applications of iron slag:

1. Steel production: Iron slag is used as a raw material in steel melting furnaces and helps to reduce melting temperature and increase production efficiency.
2. Construction: Iron slag can be used as a construction material in the construction of roads, concrete, and cement blocks.
3. Road construction: Iron slag is used as a raw material in the production of asphalt and other road surface materials.
4. Agriculture: Iron slag is used as a soil conditioner in agriculture and helps to increase soil fertility and drainage.
5. Welding: Iron slag is used as a welding flux or slag in welding two metal pieces together.
