Abstract

The slag generated during submerged arc welding is thrown away as a waste. Non-biodegradable nature poses problems of storage, disposal, soil pollution and also needs landfill space for dumping. It cannot be used as a filling material in building construction or elsewhere being glassy and brittle material. The non-renewable resources are also getting exhausted fast due to continuous mining for minerals required for manufacturing of fluxes. The successful development of recycling technology that allows the use of slag as a fresh flux will surely overcome the above-mentioned problems and will also prove to be very economical.
