SSAB and Heidelberg Materials to develop EAF slag into a more sustainable binding agent
SSAB and Heidelberg Materials are entering a collaboration to develop electric arc furnace slag (EAF slag) into an alternative binder in cement. Research project brings together also leading expertise from universities and Swerim.
The project aims to develop EAF slag into an efficient and more sustainable alternative binder in cement, known as a Supplementary Cementitious Material (SCM), to reduce the climate footprint of the construction sector.
