Abstract

BOF steel slag is a main by-product in steelmaking. The valorization of BOF slag is good for the industry and the environment. In the present study, the carbo-thermic reduction of BOF slag has been investigated, the reduction of Fe and P containing phases (i. e. oxide and compounds) is discussed, and the effects of Al2O3 additions on the reduction process are described. XRD and EPMA have been applied for characterizing the slag. We conclude that, by controlling the test conditions, it is possible to purify the recovered Fe.
