Abstract

Waste management is one of the most common and challenging problems in the world. The steel making industry has generated substantial solid waste. Furnace slag is a residue obtained in steel making operation. This paper deals with the implementation of furnace slag as an effective replacement for sand. Furnace slag, which is considered as the solid waste pollutant, can be used for road construction, clinker raw materials, filling materials, etc. This method can be implemented for producing hollow blocks, solid blocks, paver blocks, concrete structures, etc. Accordingly, advantages can be achieved by using Steel slag instead of natural aggregates. This will also encourage other researchers to find another field of using furnace slag.
