GBFS / GGBFS – Phenix Enterprise

Granulated Blast Furnace Slag or GBFS is the residue of combustion in the furnace of the steel refining process. It is obtained by quenching molten iron slag from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy substance.

GGBFS or Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag is formed when GBFS is further processed or grounded using conventional cement clinker grinding technology.

Uses and Benefits of GBFS/GGBFS

Uses :

GGBFS or GBFS is the most used raw material in cement industry to make slag cement.
