One of the most important steelmaking industry issues in the world, from the recycling of galvanized steel scrap, is the benefit or provision of the powders produced in electric arc furnaces (EAF) and Converters LD / BOF. Transportation costs, disposal in appropriate places and the increasing environmental demands, are doing many steel companies in the world seek ways to avoid, minimize and/or properly treat their powders and particles.
The experimental methodology of this project includes a complete characterization of powders and involved particles; in this case, the LD steel sludges; using chemical analysis by Atomic Absorption Analysis by X-ray diffraction, Microscopies Optical Co-located, and Scanning Electron Microscope-SEM.
It is concluded that the complete characterization of this waste, used to treat or process powders, sludges, and fine particles produced by both the Electrical arc furnace (EAF) and Converters LD / FOB, and coking plants as a result of the production process of steel and related.
