Performance based evaluation of ISF slag as a substitute of natural sand in concrete

Valorization of Wastes from Power Plant, Steel-Making and Palm Oil Industries as Partial Sand Substitute in Concrete

“…It can be said that concrete containing SS exhibited greater dimensional stability as compared to the reference concrete. The reduction in drying shrinkage with the use of SS fine aggregate was also reported previously by Tripathi and Chaudhary [37], for sand replacement of up to 70%. Monosi et al [26], on the other hand, found negligible effect of SS on the drying shrinkage of concrete.…”

“…The reduced sorptivity of SS concrete was also reported by Tripathi and Chaudhary [37] and this was attributed to the irregularity of the aggregates which contributed to the incoherence of particle-particle …”

Advances in Understanding the Alkali‐Activated Metallurgical Slag

“…e chemical composition of lead-zinc slag changes depending on the ores, the fluxes, the smelting process, and the impurities in the coke and the iron. e chemical compositions of lead-zinc slag from different research papers [24,[104][105][106][107][108][109][110][111][112][113][114][115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123] are summarized in Table 3. It could be found in Table 3 that the major composition of lead-zinc slag is FeO x , SiO 2 , CaO, Al 2 O 3 , and ZnO.…”

Strength and Durability Characteristics of Cement-lime Mortars with Fly Ash and Slag as Aggregate Substitutes

“…Only recently, apart from using a high-quality slag and treating it for cement replacement, some research teams have focused on using it as a partial replacement for sand [31]. This approach was successfully tested in the case of different types of concretes, including self-compacting concretes [32]. It was noted that concretes with sand partially replaced by slag are characterized by a longer curing time in comparison to concretes without slag.…”
