In this paper, we evaluated the suitability of converter slag as concrete aggregate by measuring physical and chemical characteristics of converter slag. The converter slag mainly contains SiO₂and CaO as the chemical composition. The reaction with water and a little of free CaO in the slag causes slag's volume to expanse. Therefore, we used several aging method in order to decrease the characteristics of slag volume expansion. Then the compressive strength of concrete with the converter slag aggregate is measured.

To examine the appicability of the converter slag to aggregate, tests were performed for the converter slag specimens which were aged with steam, and the stability of expansion was investigated. The strength of the converter slag was found to he lower than that of the natural aggregate. But the strength of the concrete mixed with the converter slag and the granular slag was increased with an increase of the content of the granular slag. The slump value was larger for the specimen of the converter slag than that for the natural aggregate. The specific weight of the converter slag was decreased with an increase of the aging peroid. The aging time for the converter slag was accessed to be about 48 hours to accommodate the full stability of the expansion. The amount of the steam needed to age one ton of converter slag to full expansion was accessed to be 60 kg. From the regression analysis for splitting tensile strength (t), and flexural strength (f), the compressive strength (c) based on the following formulas were proposed $\sigma$t=0.1506 $\sigma$c+4.5(kg/cm$^2$) (r=0.876) $\sigma$f=O.l537.~+30.5(kg/cm$^2$) (r=0.796)

Converter slag has some compositional similarities to portland cement. But it has no hydration properties due to it's quite high concentrations of FeO(20-35%), MnO(4-6.5%). So it is needed to reduce the concentrations of iron and manganese of converter slag to use as cement additives by enhancing it's hydration properties. In this study, converter slag was modified it's composition by mixing of silica, alumina and quenched BF slag and reduced in induction furnace and quenched in running water. The hydraulic properties and structures of modified and quenched converter slag are significantly changed depend on the amount and kinds of additives. The addition of alumina up to 10% and BFQ slag up to 20% by weight on converter slag was effective to enhance the hydraulic properties of modified and quenched slag. The addition of reduced and quenched converter slag up to 20% by weight in replacement of portland cement in mixing of concrete mortar were shown higher compressive strength than 100% cement concrete mortar.

An attention has been draw to converter slag which in use of it for improvement of soft ground. It has never considered about it. Associated with above fact, it should be carefully examined that the permeability with time delayed of converter slag, the chemical characteristics of converter slag and conversion of laminar flow in to turbulent flow in converter slag and the use of it be scrutinized.

우리나라에서 2000년도에 발생된 전기로 및 전로슬래그를 합하면 약 600만 톤 정도로서 주로 도로포장재료 및 매립재 등과 같은 한정된 용도로만 활용되어 왔다. 그 이유는 제강과정 중 유리석회가 슬래그화 되지 않고 불안정한 상태로 슬래그 내부에 잔존하기 때문에 콘크리트 구조물 내에서 팽창을 일으킬 가능성이 클 뿐만 아니라, 팽창이 심할 경우 구조물의 균열 내지는 붕괴까지도 야기 시킬 수 있으므로 콘크리트용 골재로 사용해서는 안 된다고 규정하고 있다. 따라서 제강슬래그를 콘크리트용 골재로 사용하기 위해서는 제강슬래그 자체의 팽창성 억제 내지는 안정화 처리가 우선 해결되어야 할 과제로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 제강슬래그 골재의 팽창성을 저감시키기 위한 목적으로 6종류의 에이징 방법을 선정하여 안정화의 효율에 대하여 비교 검토하였다. 전로슬래그 골재의 경우, 본 연구에서 실시한 에이징 처리 방법으로서는 콘크리트용 골재로서 요구되는 팽창률을 저감시키는데 한계가 있었을 뿐만 아니라, 에이징 처리한 전로슬래그 골재 사용 콘크리트의 강도도 재령과 더불어 감소하는 문제점이 있음을 확인하였다. 그러나 전기로슬래그 골재를 온수중 및 증기중 에이징 처리할 경우, 팽창률이 전로슬래그 골재의 약 2/3 정도에 지나지 않는 효율을 나타내었으며, 이를 사용한 콘크리트의 강도도 전로슬래그 골재 사용 콘크리트와는 달리 보통콘크리트의 강도에 상응하는 비교적 좋은 결과를 나타내므로 콘크리트용 골재로서 사용 가능성을 시사하였다.

Steel slag is produced during steel making process. Compared with the blast furnace slag, converter slag has the expansibility due to the reaction with water and free CaO. Therefore it is specified in Standard Specification for Concrete in Korea that steel slag aggregate must not be used in concrete. In this study, atomized steel slag aggregate is conducted from converter slag by the atomizing method. Atomized steel slag and conventional converter slag are same in its composite by nature in the converter but compounds of the composite become different because of different method of slag treatment. Especially atomized steel slag aggregate overcomes expansibility that is the weak point for usage. It is researched whether it has the possibility, suitability for fine aggregate in concrete. Slump and air content are measured in fresh concrete, compressive and bending strength in hardened concrete. These is compared with control concrete with washed sand.

Converter has been slag produced 10 million tons per year in Japan. It is a steel making by product produced in the same way as the blast-furnace slag. Though blast-furnace slag is being used effectively as a concrete admixture, the converter stag has never been used effectively because of the expansion action of contained free lime and iron oxide. This is an important environmental problem in the steel industry. Beta-2CaOSiO$_2$(beta-C$_2$S) is contained 40 percent in converter slag, therefore it is very promising as a concrete admixture. We proposed an accelerated aging processes capable of stabilizing the converter slag in a short time. The converter slag is dipped into alkali aqueous solution after heating at low temperature. It was subsequently ground to a grain size of 75 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ , inner 30 percent of OPC. The properties of mortar and concrete using the blended cement were determined. As a result, it has become apparent that the expansion was reduced and long term compressive strength was increased while that at early ages was not so remarkable. The hydration exotherm rate was lower than that of the OPC.

The collapsibility of sodium silicate-bonded sands mixed with the L.D converter slag powder to form a hardener were investigated. Five to six percent sodium silicate on the basis of silica sand and 30-40% L.D converter slag powder on the basis of sodium silicate, were mixed and the compressive strength, surface stability index(SSI), bench time, retained strength of the standard sand specimens were measured. The properties were similar to those of general inorganic bonded self-setting molds. The compressive strength and surface stability index were increased and the retained strength and bench time were decreased with increased amount of the L.D converter slag powder. The retained strength of sodium silicate-bonded self-setting molds with the L.D converter slag powder were decreased than $CO_2$ sand molds. The collapsibility of sodium silicate-bonded self-setting molds with the L.D converter slag powder were superior in comparison with $CO_2$ sand molds. The L.D converter slag powder could be used as hardener and collapse agent for the sodium silicate-bonded self-setting molds.

In this study, several series of experiments were conducted to investigate the phosphorus (P) removal process in slag-containing solution using furnace and converter slags. High amount of $OH^-$, $Ca^{2+}$ and alkalinity were discharged from the slags and hydroxyapatites [$Ca_5(PO_4)_3(OH)$] were kept accumulated on the surface of slag. P removal capacity of the slag decreased with the increase of slag dosage. The maximum capacity was found to be 11.25 mg/g at the converter slag. Converter slag adsorbed P more than furnace slag(about four times in average). An experimental study on the effect of pH shows that the percentage removal of P increased upto 30% at the pH range of 56 than that of above pH 8. Langmuir isotherm constants gave a better correlation than Freundlich ones. P removal amount in the presence of $NH^+_4$ was less compared to the one in the absence of $NH^+_4$. Maximum percentage reduction was 23%.

A converter slag has been heat-treated above melting point at reduced condition by cokes. As the result, most iron was separated. To make hydraulic compounds, calcium oxide was added to the reduced converter slag and the mixtures were sintered. This modified converter slag clinker mainly contained tricalcium silicate and calcium aluminates, and have a great potential to be a good hydraulic cement. The hydrates of the hydraulic compounds and gypsum with and without granulated slags, were mainly C-S-H, ettringite, calcium monosulfoaluminate hydrate, calcium aluminate hydrate, and $Ca(OH)_2$
