Ore grinding mill for slag processing used in cement additive sector in chile
Transforming Industrial Byproducts into Valuable Cement Additives: The Chilean Experience Chile’s mining industry generates substantial quantities of slag as a byproduct of its extensive copper and other metal extraction operations. For decades, this material represented an environmental challenge and storage burden. However, recent technological advancements in grinding equipment have transformed this industrial residue into a valuable additive for the cement sector, creating economic opportunities while addressing environmental concerns. The Technical Challenge: Converting Slag into Cementitious Material Granulated blast furnace slag possesses latent hydraulic properties that can be activated through fine grinding. When processed to the appropriate fineness, slag develops excellent…
