“…Ladle slag, as a by-product of the metallurgical industry, is one of the possible materials which, after appropriate treatment, can partially replace cement [6]. The possible replacement of part of cement with finely ground ladle slag should bring considerable economic and environmental savings in the production of cement composites, similar to the use of steel or blast furnace slag [7]. The use of ladle slag in the metallurgical industry would secure savings in energy costs and other technological operations associated with slag processing.…”
