In this study, the influence of steel slag (SS) content on the strength of the cementitious materials was investigated. The quaternary active cementitious material (CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-SO3) was prepared using various proportions of steel slag (SS), granulated blast furnace slag (BFS), and desulfurized gypsum (DG). The mechanism of synergistic excitation hydration of the cementitious materials was examined using various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR). The strength of the mortar test block was initially increased and decreased later with the increase of the SS content. Mortar test block with 20% steel slag, 65% granulated blast furnace slag, and 15% desulfurized gypsum with 0.35 water-binder ratio showed the highest compressive strength of 57.3 MPa on 28 days. The free calcium oxide (f-CaO) in the SS reacted with water and produced calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) which created an alkaline environment. Under the alkaline environment, the alkali-activated reaction occurred with BFS. In the early stage of hydration reaction, calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gel and fibrous hydration product ettringite (AFt) crystals were formed, which provided early strength to the cementitious materials. As the hydration reaction progressed, the interlocked growth of C-S-H gel and AFt crystals continued and promoted the increase of the strength of the cementitious system.

The strength, expansion and amount of scaling of concrete with compound mineral admixture (CMA) from steel slag, granulated blast furnace slag and fly ash were studied. The result shows that damage by crystallization press from sulfate attack when concrete was exposed to sulfate environments under wetting–drying alternation is much larger than that from sulfate chemical attack. Adding CMA to concrete could reduce the damage from expansion of concrete caused by sulfate chemical attack, but the resistance of concrete to damage by crystallization press from sulfate attack was remarkably reduced.

Six supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) were identified to be incorporated in concrete exposed to high-temperature cycling conditions within the thermal energy storage literature. The selected SCMs are bauxite, chamotte, ground granulated blast furnace slag, iron silicate, silica fume, and steel slag. A microstructural characterization was carried out through an optical microscope, X-ray diffraction analysis, and FT-IR. Also, a pozzolanic test was performed to study the reaction of SCMs silico-aluminous components. The formation of calcium silica hydrate was observed in all SCMs pozzolanic test. Steel slag, iron silicate, and ground granulated blast furnace slag required further milling to enhance cement reaction. Moreover, the tensile strength of three fibers (polypropylene, steel, and glass fibers) was tested after exposure to an alkalinity environment at ambient temperature during one and three months. Results show an alkaline environment entails a tensile strength decrease in polypropylene and steel fibers, leading to corrosion in the later ones.

A new environmentally friendly cemented oil shale residue–steel slag–ground granulated blast furnace slag backfill (COSGB) was prepared using oil shale residue (OSR), steel slag (SS) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) as constituent materials. Based on univariate analysis and the Box–Behnken design (BBD) response surface method, the three responses of the 28 days unconfined compressive strength (UCS), slump and cost were used to optimize the mix ratio. Using a combination of scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), the reaction products, microscopic morphology and pore structure of the specimens with the optimal mix ratio at different curing ages were analyzed. The influence of heavy metal ions from the raw materials and the COSGB mixtures on the groundwater environment was studied by leaching tests. The research demonstrates that the optimal mix ratio is GGBS mixing amount 4.85%, mass ratio of SS to OSR 0.82, and solid mass concentration 67.69%. At shorter curing age, the hydration products are mainly calcium alumino silicate hydrate (C-A-S-H) and calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gels. With the increase of curing age, ettringite (AFt) and C-S-H gels become the main source of the UCS. Meanwhile, the porosity of the filler decreases continuously. The leaching concentration of heavy metal ions from the COSGB mixtures is all lower than the leaching concentration of raw materials and meet the requirements of the Chinese groundwater quality standard (GB/T 14848-2017). Therefore, this new COSGB cannot pollute the groundwater environment and meets backfill requirements. The proposed technology is a reliable and environmentally friendly alternative for recycling OSR and SS while simultaneously supporting cemented paste backfill (CPB).

For the purpose of high-efficiency recovery and utilization of steel slag in cement and concrete, a comparative research on the cementitious property of several kinds of steel slag in six different cementitious systems have been carried out. The results show that the changes of cementitious systems and the basicity of steel slag have no significant effect on the mortar fluidity. The cooperating use of steel slag and ground granulated blast furnace slag is helpful to activate the cementitious property of steel slag. The basicity of steel slag can generally reflect the long-term cementitious properties of steel slag.
