Whereas the DRI process itself does not generate any slag, EAF and SAF will do. These slags will be very different. Moreover, the new EAF slags will be also different compared to today's scrap based EAF slag. However, specific slag/metal ratios, resulting slag volumes, chemical and mineralogical compositions and physical properties of the …

The slag chemistry in the EAF is targeted to promote phosphorus removal from the steel and to promote slag ing to shield the furnace from direct exposure to the arc at high power input. The slag's physical properties (basicity and viscosity) are directly influenced by the slag's chemical composition [3][4].
EAF slag is a non-metallic by-product that consists mainly of silicates and oxides formed during the process of refining the molten steel. Raw EAF slag often appears as grey or black colored lumps, depending on its ferrous oxide content. This type of slag generally has a rough surface texture, with a surface pore diameter of 0.01–10 μm.
Some DRI-EAFs are operating at low basicity (EAF 9, 11, 13, 15 in Table 3), but half of the DRI-EAFs are still operating at high slag volumes and basicity near 2 (EAF 10, 12, 14, 16 in Table 3 ...
The type of steel furnace slag (SFS), including electric arc furnace (EAF) slag, basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag, ladle metallurgy furnace (LMF) slag, and argon oxygen decarburization (AOD) slag, can significantly affect the composite properties when used as an aggregate or as a supplementary cementitious material in bound applications, such as …
Steel slag, originated in Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) for continuous steel production, have stone-like appearance, black colour with small white agglomerations of calcium carbonate and high roughness; they can be generally classified into two different kinds [5]: (1) Black basic slag, with a lime content lower than 40%, resulting from the cold …

Indeed, this research [4] showed that the volumetric expansion of the coarse EAF slag (5–25 mm) reached a value of 3.9%, whilst the fine EAF slag (0–5 mm) provided an expansion up to 4.8%. These higher values, however, can be justified by the different quality of the material (e.g. ferrous scrap) fed into the furnace, which can give ...
