The SAF products are "electric" pig iron and a SAF slag. The chemical composition of the final slag is expected to be similar to a typical blast furnace slag, provided that the same raw materials are used for DRI production as today for the blast furnace. The existing BOF steel shop and all other metallurgical process steps will remain.

Ground-Granulated Blast Slag (GGBS): GGBS is a byproduct of blast furnace iron manufacturing. It is a fine powder made by quenching molten slag from furnace with water, which causes quick cooling and granulation . When coupled with cement, silicates, and aluminate compound in GGBS it improves the strength, …
Iron and Steel Slag Statistics and Information. Iron and steel slags are coproducts of iron and steel manufacturing. In the production of iron, the blast furnace is charged with iron ore, fluxing agents, usually limestone and dolomite, and coke as fuel and the reducing agent. The iron ore is a mixture of iron oxides, silica, and alumina.

Most of the high-iron coal slag, except for the slag with high calcium and iron content, could meet the stable tapping process of an entrained-flow coal gasifier at 1350 °C or 1400 °C for the suitable viscosity value (>2.5 Pa·s). The structure determined the viscosity of the high-iron coal slag because the crystals were not detected.
Over the past decades, with the rapid growth of industrialization, the higher volume of byproducts (slag) generated from iron/steel production draw attention to the need for its recycling in an increasingly efficient way.
