Abstract

Approximately 20 kg of dust and sludges are produced per ton of liquid steel produced via the blast furnaces (BF)/basic oxygen furnace (BOF) production route. Many of these dusts are recycled through the sinter plant or blast furnace route without issue, but high zinc content dusts are routinely lan...
