— The steel slag produced during the primary stage of steel production is referred to as furnace slag or tap slag. This is the major source of steel slag aggregate. After being tapped from the furnace, the molten steel is transferred in a ladle for further refining to remove additional impurities still contained within the steel.
— Slag is not only required in the smelting process in the furnace, but also indispensable for secondary refining of steel, hot metal pretreatment, and steel continuous casting. The name of "slag" is not precise enough, but it is still being used. Slag that has been melted into a liquid state at high temperature is called dross.
