Granulated Blast Furnace Slag :

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, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder. Ggbfs or ground granulated blast furnace slag is formed when gbfs is further processed or ground using conventional cement clinker grinding technology.
