Advanced Hydraulic Slag Crushing Solutions
Understanding Slag Materials
Slag, a byproduct of metal smelting and refining processes, represents both an environmental challenge and valuable resource. Our hydraulic slag crushing solutions efficiently process both smelting slag (from primary metal production) and refining slag (from secondary metal processing), transforming industrial waste into reusable materials for construction, cement production, and road bases.
Slag Processing Workflow
- Primary crushing with our C6X Jaw Crusher (input size: ≤1200mm)
- Secondary crushing using HPT Hydraulic Cone Crusher
- Tertiary crushing with VSI6X Impact Crusher for final shaping
- Screening via S5X Vibrating Screen for precise grading
- Magnetic separation for metal recovery (optional)
Equipment Applications
Our slag crushing systems serve diverse industries:
- Steel mill slag recycling (blast furnace & electric arc furnace)
- Non-ferrous metal processing (copper, lead, zinc smelting)
- Construction material production (substitute for natural aggregate)
- Environmental remediation projects
