Acero y Medio Ambiente, Sidenor Industrial, Aceros Olarra

Objectives

EKOTEK has carried out these studies for the Steel sector in order to determine the best alternative, from technical and economic viewpoints, for the re-use of slag, both white and black. To do this, the characteristics of the different types of slag and of the steel works were studied, and we carried out a market study involving the most important actors in this sector in order to establish the best way to use these materials: re-use in cement factories, applications in building work and road works, etc.

Results

A complete study has been completed that analyses and evaluates the best ways, economically and technically, to re-use the waste produced by the Steel Industry.
