Popis: To solve the problem of difficult utilization of steel slag, the liquid steel slag was modified and the air-quenching granulation process was carried out to make steel slag into a value-added end product: air-quenching granulated steel slag. The granulated slag was tested to analyze the variation rule of slag properties under different modification conditions. Based on the phase diagram of CaO–Si2O–FeO–MgO–Al2O3 slag system, the feasibility of blast furnace (BF) slag as modifier was determined. When the addition of BF slag was increased from 0% to 35%, following results were obtained. The slag fluidity was improved, and the air-quenching temperature range was expanded. Then, the yield of air-quenched steel slag increased, while the granulation rate, the degree of sphericity, the compactness were decreased. Furthermore, the air-quenching granulation process could substantially improve the stability and the amorphous content of steel slag. The maximum removal rate of free CaO was above 80% and the amorphous content was up to 95%. Taking the factors of yield and properties of granulated steel slag into full consideration, the optimum proportion of BF slag is around 15%.
