Slag cement, originally known as granulated blast-furnace slag, begins with the production of iron. The heart of the process is the blast furnace that refines iron ore into iron. The ingredients are heated to nearly 1500 degrees Centigrade to form two components: iron and molten slag.
GGBFS was first used in lime mortar production as early as the 1700's.

The main challenge of the steel industry for the next decade is the steel production transformation process, starting in Europe. The CO 2 intensive blast furnace/basic oxygen furnace (BOF) route will be substituted by a combination of Direct Reduced Iron (DRI), based on natural gas, later on "green" hydrogen, with an Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) or …
1.4.2. The basic oxygen furnace (BOF) The BOF process forms part of the primary steel production route, which also incorporates the BF process. In a BF, the iron ore, limestone and fuel are continuously supplied through the top section of the furnace, while heated air is forced into the lower section (Geerdes, Toxopeus, & Van der fliet, 2009).The end …
In the blast furnace (BF) gangue and non-metallic impurities are separated from the iron ore with the final products being pig iron and slag (Dippenaar, 2005). Pig iron and molten slag accumulate at the hearth of the BF, and the slag is positioned above the pig iron, as its density is lower than iron ( Ito et al., 2014 ).
