Product Introduction
Silicon Slag is a by-product generated during the smelting of ferrosilicon or silicon metal. Though classified as a residue, silicon slag contains a significant amount of elemental silicon, making it a cost-effective alternative to standard deoxidizers in steelmaking and alloy production. It is widely used in various metallurgical applications due to its excellent chemical composition, economic value, and environmental sustainability.
