Recycling of steel plant waste oxides - a review / C.J. Adams.: M38-13/79-34E-PDF

"Large quantities of ferruginous waste material are produced at steel plants as a byproduct of iron and steelmaking processes. Much of this material is recycled through sinter plants to blast furnaces but the rest is discarded on dumps or used as landfill. In recent years, however, the industry has become increasingly aware that it must respond to economic and environmental pressures and develop the necessary technology for efficient internal recycling of most waste material. Inquiries from industry and a suggestion from the Canadian Steel Industry Research Association (CSIRA) via its poll entitled "Technological Barriers to Progress" have prompted this study by CANMET under the Minerals Research Program. This review outlines the sources and types of waste material generated and documents processes that have been developed to recycle these wastes"--Introd., p. 1.
