Cinder (Slag) is produced as a by-product at combustion of coal in granulation boilers. Consequently after incinerating finely-ground black or brown coal, Cinder (Slag) is separated in the hopper of the burning chamber of the boiler where it falls down directly into water bath to be ready after dehydration for being dispatched to the client.

By its composition and granulometry, slag corresponds to sands utilised mainly at geotechnical activities. Its principal utilisation is in the sphere of roads thanks to its light volumetric weight and simultaneously its good compactibility.

Some examples of how may Cinder (Slag) be utilised:

  • Embankments of ground bodies in roads
  • Backfills and round-fills of line structures of utility networks (water lines, sewerage lines, gas lines)
  • Backfill material in re-cultivation of mined areas after excavation of mineral raw materials (surface mines, sandpits, quarries)
  • Ground works or re-cultivation of anthropogenic-damaged lands
  • Backfills to load-bearing retaining structures
  • Sharpening matter in production of brick burnt products
  • Gritting material for de-icing winter maintenance of roads
