Sustainable agriculture using blast furnace and steel slags as liming agents

Objectif

Steel industry develops fertilisers from BOF steel slag, which could be used to provide agriculture with excellent liming agents to protect soil to acidify. These new fertilisers are in competition to natural liming materials. This research should show that steel slags are good fertilising materials with no harmful effects on the soil and to the groundwater. Test fields, which have been treated with fertilisers from iron and steel slag on long-term experiments, will be investigated to draft clear statements on the sustainable effects of the use of iron and steel slags in agriculture.
