The volume of slags generated from the steel industry is a source of possible resources which is constantly increasing. Specifically, in the production of stainless steel, specific and singular slags with unique characteristics are obtained, which allows considering an approach aimed at their use in new recycling ways. This work shows the feasibility of using stainless steel slag as a substitute for limestone filler in the manufacture of self-compacting concrete. The influence of different treatments applied to slags on physical and chemical properties was studied. On the other hand, the mechanical behaviour, as well as the durability acquired in self-compacting concrete, has been analysed. Very encouraging results were obtained, since this research demonstrates the possible application of this stainless steel slag as a construction material, improving sustainability and promoting circular economy processes, which are achieved through the minimisation of the waste disposal and accumulation.

“…Serjun et al [2], reported that about 80% of LS generated in the Europe is either landfilled or stored. Various researchers have proposed an alternative use of LS as fillers in self-compacting concrete and in masonry mortars [3][4][5], and also in landfill covering as filtering beds and in stabilizing soft clayey soils [2,6]. The chemical composition of LS varies according to the steel-making factories' processes, conditions and additives; however, the composition includes CaO, SiO2, Al2O3 and MgO, which makes this slag a potential binder in alkali activation [7].…”

“…Finally ladle furnace (LF) slag (white) , obtained by processing by refining in either a ladle furnace (LF) or specific converters for high-alloy steel, can be used to improve soil stabilization [ 27 ], or for the immediate use in masonry mortars and paving mixes for rural roads with low levels of traffic as a concreate mixture [ 28 , 29 ] or in asphalt mixes work properly as filler [ 30 ].…”

Use of Steel Slag as an Alternative to Aggregate and Filler in Road Pavements

et al. 2021

Today the use of Construction and Demolition Materials (CDM) can be considered as a suitable solution for the construction or the rehabilitation of road pavements. In this context, it is central to minimizing waste production, favoring the reuse through new production cycles to replace virgin natural raw materials. As illustrated in this study, steel slag has mechanical properties that justify its use as aggregate in the manufacture of bituminous mixes. In road construction, their use is focused on the substitution of fine aggregate and filler in bituminous mixtures. Mechanical characterizations, Marshall stability and indirect tensile resilient modulus (ITSM) tests were used to evaluate the laboratory performance of the mixtures. The research aims are to provide the use of these materials for the construction of the entire road pavement structure; in this study authors used these materials both in the characterization of cementitious layers and in those with bituminous conglomerate. In both cases, the use of steel slag has favored an increase of stiffness in the mixtures.
