In this study, we investigate the difference between natural aggregate and electric arc furnace (EAF) slag one in order to use EAF slag aggregate as coarse aggregate in concrete. We find the physical and chemical properties of EAF slag aggregate according to the different aging processes. We consider the properties of the concrete made with EAF slag aggregate on these bases.

In this study, EMP shielding performance was evaluated using electric furnace oxidized slag to give EMP shielding performance to concrete among the most used materials in construction sites. As a result of the evaluation, the component of the electric furnace oxidation slag was found to have an Fe₂O₃ content of 34%, and it was also found to contain an MgO component of about 4.8%. In addition, as a result of conducting an aggregate stability evaluation due to concerns about expansion due to MgO components, it is considered to be suitable for the KS standard. EMP shielding performance evaluation result showed that there was no correlation in EMP shielding performance according to compressive strength, and that general aggregates did not have EMP shielding. However, it was found that the aggregate using the furnace oxidized slag had excellent EMP shielding performance, and the shielding performance improved as the thickness increased. As a result of the durability evaluation, it was found that the EMP shielding concrete has the durability of abortion compared to the general concrete. Through this, it is thought that it will be good to improve the shielding rate if concrete is manufactured using electric furnace oxide slag when constructing EMP shielding structures in the future.

We fabricated large single grain YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$ (Y-123) superconductors. The single grain Y-123 was grown by top seeded melt growth (TSMG) method. In a conventional box furnace with uniform temperature distribution, it was very difficult to grow large single grain Y-123 superconductors due to the size limitation in growth. To overcome the size limitation, we applied a radial thermal gradient (lower temperature at sample center and higher temperature on the sample edge) to the TSMG process. In this case, large single grain Y-123 could be easily grown. This is attributed that the liquid of the sample edge was maintained at the high temperature compared to the growth front. Using this method, we successfully fabricated a large single grain Y-123 of 6.4 cm X6.4 cm

EAFD (Electric Arc Furnace Dust) is considered as pernicious pollutant, assigned hazardous waste. Since this dust is a by-product of industry, it contains valuable metals such as Fe, Zn, Ni, Cu which can be turned into resources by recycling process. In this study, hydrometallurgical process was applied to recover Zn from Electric Arc Furnace Dusts. The result showed 95% Zn recovery at 3M $H_2SO_4$, Solids/Liquid ratio 1:2 and aeration of 1.8L/min for 2hr. However there was 80% Zn recovery at lower $H_2SO_4$ concentration apply for pilot scale plant.

As the shortage of concrete aggregates is intensifying, the development of alternative resources is urgent. As the amount of steel slag increases year by year, attempts are being made to recycle slag into high-value-added products in order to develop an efficient resource recycling industry based on slag and to obtain economic benefits. However, the use of electric arc furnace oxidizing slag (EOS) as building materials is practically limited because it contains unstable materials. In this paper, physical properties of concrete were evaluated by using electric arc furnace slag aggregate. It has been produced with two levels of general strength area W / C 45% and high strength area W / C 30%. Fresh concrete has been tested in air content, flow and slump, unit weight. The properties of the cured concrete were investigated by compressive strength, bending strength and unit volume weight. As a result of this study, strength of concrete increased with increasing EOS aggregate mixture.

The causes of concrete shrinkage are very diverse, in particular, aggregates impact the characteristics of shrinkage in concrete by constraining the shrinkage of cement paste. Meanwhile, owing to the lack of natural aggregate, various alternative aggregates are being developed, and their application in concrete also becomes more diverse. This study aimed to experimentally evaluate the drying and autogenous shrinkage in concrete that was composed of electric arc furnace slag as coarse aggregates. And, the results were compared with prediction models. From the results, the application of electric arc furnace slag can reduce the drying and autogenous shrinkage. In particular, autogenous shrinkage is greatly decreased. The predictions using GL2000 for drying shrinkage and Tazawa model for autogenous shrinkage were similar to the experimental results. However, the most prediction models do not consider the impact of aggregates, hence, the new prediction model should be developed or improved.

In this study, the mechanical properties of early-age concrete were evaluated by mixing the electric arc furnace oxidizing slag fine aggregate with 30% and 50% replacement ratio. Slump test, air content test and unit volume weight test were performed for fresh concrete, and compressive strength test and chloride penetration experiments were carried out in hardened concrete. The compressive strength increased up to 7 days of curing age with increasing replacement ratio of the electric furnace oxidizing slag, but the strength decreased to 90% level of OPC concrete at 28 days of age. Regarding the result of chloride penetration test, no significant differences from OPC concrete were evaluated, which shows a feasibility of application to concrete aggregate.

This paper presents the composite control method using fuzzy and neural network theory. Fuzzy theory is applied to make control rules and neural net is used to learn them and to generate proper control signals. The electric furnace is controlled to maintain the desired temperature and to minimize the fluctuation of the temperatures in various locations inside the furnace. This controller consists of three neural nets which deal with the average of the temperatures, variances of them and the temperature stabilizing mechanism. Experiments are performed with the target temperatures of 70.deg. C and 80.deg. C. Test results show that this simple method is very effective.
