Oxidizing slag

Electric-arc-furnace (EAF) slag - Oxidizing slag

According to Appendix No. 8, regulations for electric-arc-furnace (EAF) slag under the “Management Guideline for the Reuse of Industrial Waste”, processed oxidizing slag may be reused in cement raw materials, asphalt concrete aggregates, asphalt concrete, Controlled-Low-Strength-Material (CLSM) aggregates, CLSMs, subbase and base course grade aggregates for pavement constructions (roads, sidewalks, container yards or parking lots), Jersey barrier.
Depending on the application, the product quality of the EAF slag aggregate products shall meet the requirements of the Chinese National Standards of “CNS 15305 Materials for soil-aggregate subbase, base, and surface courses” and “CNS 1240 Concrete aggregates”.
