The Interest in recycling of materials to reduce the CO2 emissions and reduce the energy consumption has inspirited us to investigate the influence of ferrous metallurgical solid waste material namely "slag" on the performance of traditional Portland cement composites. The scrap material was mechanically treated by crushing followed by ball milling and classification. The mechanically treated slag was mixed with Portland cement without any modification. The mix was casted into the desired moulds and allowed to sol...

This investigation reports the influence of industrial waste material namely slag on the performance on cement composites. Recall that slag is a landfill material resulting from the extraction process of steel making. The scrap material was physically treated by crushing followed by ball milling and screening. The slag was mixed with the Portland cement and compared with traditionally Portland cement composite. The mix was casted into the desired moulds and allowed to cure at room temperature for 48h followed by o...
