increase. In 2018, 1252.87 and 1806.46 million tons of pig iron and steel, respectively, were …

Recent research indicates that circular economy practices have the potential to provide
significant environmental benefits. In particular, recycling has been associated with …

Four high-workability (pumpable and self-compacting) concrete mix designs are presented
that incorporate steelmaking slags with additions of both metallic and polymeric fibers …

The addition of by-products, such as recycled concrete aggregate and ground granulated
blast furnace slag, modify the in-fresh flowability of ordinary self-compacting concrete both …

Abstract The behavior of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is very sensitive to the use of by-
products in replacement of conventional cement or finer aggregate fractions. The high …

Alkali-activated materials are regarded as a potential sustainable building material with
industrial by-products fully replacing ordinary Portland cement. Five million tonnes of electric …

A circular economy is a current tenet that must be implemented in the field of construction.
That would imply the study of the possibilities of the use of waste generated, for obtaining …

For sustainable development in the construction industry, blast furnace slag has been used
as a substitute for cement in concrete. In contrast, steel-making slag, the second largest by …

The glass and glass ceramics in the CaO–MgO–Al 2 O 3–SiO 2 system were successfully
synthesized from the stainless steel (SS) slag. The effect of slag content on the viscosity and …
