Separate grinding of granulated blastfurnace slag offers many advantages over combined grinding: A change in product type can be made quickly with free adjustment of the product parameters for a small expenditure on silo capacity. As the granulated blastfurnace slag is dried separately there is no risk of damaging the SO3 agent. Modern grinding systems for separate grinding of granulated blastfurnace slag use tube mills and the combination of tube mills and high-pressure grinding rolls, as well as high pressure grinding rolls and roller grinding mills.
