Outotec Slag Granulation Typically, slag is granulated by using water sprays during tapping. Granulation is a cost-effective way to process slag for further usage. Because the granulation process uses water recycled from other water circuits in the plant, fresh water intake is minimized. Outotec Furnace Lining Monitoring System
Slag granulation with heat recovery is an essential and emerging technology for sustainable metal production. This technology has been developing for a few decades with much …
For copper slag granulation, the main mass fraction peak moved to the range of small diameter with an increase in rotating speed.

Highlights The granulation and heat recovery technologies towards molten slag of steel industry are reviewed. The working principle, research status, challenges and prospects of these technologies are analyzed. Centrifugal granulation combined with chemical heat recovery is the most perspective method among all technologies.
Thus, the procedure of wet granulation of slag is very inefficient both from the environmental and en-ergetic points of view. In foreign countries, the investigations of the possibility of dry granulation of slags are carried out for a long time. According to this procedure, hot slags contact with cooling gases (in particular,with air) [6–10].
A considerable amount of heat energy is contained in the molten slag tapped from blast furnace.At present,the BF slag is treated by impinging much water for granulation and the energy is wasted without recovery.Thus,dry granulation technology has attracted more and more attention.The basic problems and technical difficulties of dry granulation were …
