Characterisation and utilisation of steel slag for the construction of roads and highways

Abstract: Steel slags are by-products from steel industries which can be used for the construction of roads and highways. Most of the physical and mechanical properties of steel slags are similar or better compared to conventional crushed stone aggregates. Most of the developed countries have successfully incorporating steel slags as an aggregate in hot mix asphalt, road base, sub-base and soil stabilisation in road works. This paper is a review of the physical, mechanical and chemical characteristics of steel slags and… Show more

“…As shown in Table 2, both BOF and EAF have high ferrous and ferric oxides. The presence of iron oxide in steel slag makes it relatively heavier than natural aggregates [51,62,63]. Due to the chemical composition derived from oxidizing environment, steel slag obtains dark greyish colour [25,64].…”

“…En [59], basados en múltiples estudios consultados, se hacen reportes sobre nueve escorias BOF y once EAF, composición química similar a las reportadas en la tabla 2. Los resultados presentados en la tabla 2 son coherentes con los reportados por [30,73] sobre cuatro tipos de SS estudiadas en Suecia y por [8,50,53,74,75].…”

“…La composición química y la microtextura rugosa de las SS permite que se formen fuertes entrecruzamientos de partículas [78,79] y enlaces adherentes con el asfalto [49,50,[80][81][82]. En [59], basados en las propiedades hidrófobas de una BOF y un pH cercano a 12, señalan que este material proporciona buena adhesión con el asfalto y ayudan a resistir fenómenos como el stripping. En [54], basados en imágenes obtenidas con microscopía electrónica de barrido (SEM) de una escoria EAF, reportan que estos materiales pueden desarrollar una adhesión más fuerte con el asfalto en comparación con mezclas convencionales, principalmente por su porosidad.…”

“…The use of secondary and waste materials, slag and dross materials, to substitute certain parts of asphalt mixes is not a novelty in the past decades with a constant pursuit for a better sustainable environment, and asphalt industry [16,17,18]. Research has shown that the use, instead of disposal, of such byproducts may be a promising way, amongst others, having at least no negative effects on performance while solving part of some issues related to the accessibility of virgin materials [19,20].…”
