This paper illustrates how systems requirements (i.e., safety) are decomposed to define manufacturing process requirements and design. Steelmaking is an energy intensive process; utilizing vast amounts of electricity, oxygen, and natural gas to liquefy scrap steel. While the electric arc furnace process is used extensively around the world to melt steel, it is inefficient. Hot gases are lost to...

Limestone filler is a raw material that is already used in several applications like paints, bricks, bituminous mixtures...etc. Moreover, and particularly in Belgium, classical additions for concrete like fly ashes and granulated blast furnace slags are becoming rare; there is a need for new additions that could have a positive effect on the properties of the fresh and hardened cementitous comp...

this research was conducted in order to evaluate fatigue behavior of asphalt mixes containing electric arc furnace (eaf) steel slag. after initial evaluation of the properties of eaf steel slag using x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electric microscope (sem), six sets of laboratory mixtures were prepared. each set were treated replacing various portions of limestone aggregates of the mix wi...
