With people’s knowing about the GGBS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) performance and economic value, now many cement and concrete enterprises start to produce and use GGBS. The activity GGBS used in cement production can replace large amount clinker, used in concrete can replace large amount cement and improve the concrete performance. It can lower the production cost, save energy and reduce emission.

slag vertical mill

Vertical roller mill is typically designed to grinding industrial waste slag to powder. The integrated vertical milling system, pioneered by Chaeng that has successfully built more than 100 mineral slag, steel slag and nickel slag grinding lines at home and abroad, can deal with all the slag mentioned above. GRM has been tested and verified by the practices, and also benefits millions of money for enterprises.
