Mill scale, is formed on the outer surfaces of plates, sheets or profiles when they are being produced by rolling hot iron or steel billets in rolling or steel mills.
It looks like a hard brittle sand and is mainly composed of iron oxides, mostly ferric, and is bluish black in color.
Being produced during the reheating, conditioning and hot rolling operation for the production of steel articles, the mill scale initially adheres to the steel surface and protects it from atmospheric corrosion, provided no break occurs in this coating.
From the chemical and physical analysis performed on the scrap, and according to the european environmental rules, the material has been classified as a special non dangerous waste, listed in green list
In particular the mill scale can be classified as follows:
Einecs (european commission no.): 266-007-8
Waste code: 10 02 10
Basel code: b 12 30
Hs code: 2619.00
Applications:
Steel manufacturing
Cement manufacturing
Glass manufacturing
As road ballast
As agricultural lime
In road and traditional building constructions
In paints manufacturing
In power plant smokestacks
Limestone is widely used in chemical products and construction materials. powder and lumps .
Vietnamese Limestone Powder is one of the most popular materials for producing animal feed worldwide. It is rich in calcium content and low in metal, which makes big contribution to the development of animals. Application: Manufacturing Feed Additives For Fish, Shrimp, Layers, Broilers, Swine, Cattle. Materials: High quality Limestone, Calcium (Ca) > 38%, Ferrous (Fe2O3) < 0.05%, Magnesium Oxide (MgO) b< 0.2%, Whiteness: 90%, Brightness: 85%, Moisture: < 0.15%.
Supplier: Gypsum rocks, gypsum powder, rock salt (industrial salt and deicing salt), food grade salt, sodium bicarbonate, limestone, white limestone (marble chips), sulphur (granular, lumps)
