Bog iron is a type of iron ore composed of mostly mineral goethite and other iron-bearing minerals with impurities like clay or plant debris. Bog iron used to be a very important ore of iron before better alternatives like banded iron formations were discovered.
Steel Furnace Slag is produced in a (BOF) Basic Oxygen Furnace or an (EAF) Electric Arc Furnace. Hot iron (BOF) and/or scrap metal (EAF) are the primary metals to make steel in each process.Lime is injected to act as a fluxing agent. The lime combines with the silicates, aluminum oxides, magnesium oxides, manganese oxides and ferrites to form steel furnace slag, commonly called steel slag.ot iron (BOF) and/or scrap metal (EAF) are the primary metals to make steel in each process.
