Description
Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) has various uses across industries:
1. Cement Manufacturing: Used in blended cements to improve strength, durability, and resistance to chemical attacks.
2. Concrete Production: Enhances workability, reduces heat of hydration, and provides resistance to sulfates and chlorides in marine and industrial structures.
3. Soil Stabilization: Improves the strength and durability of soft soils in construction projects.
4. Backfill Material: Used in mining and construction for cost-effective and durable backfilling.
5. Asphalt Production: Enhances the durability and performance of asphalt in road construction.
6. Environmental Applications: Helps in reducing CO₂ emissions by replacing a portion of cement and is used in waste stabilization.
