Although natural stone is not usually discardable by the end of its lifetime (due to its extended durability), our main goal as a natural stone manufacturer is to give back what nature gives us. We think in a Su (stone)ble way and recycle all our waste and re-use our resources the best we can.
ادامه مطلبLimestone is part of the charge used when extracting iron from its ore. Limestone is primarily composed of a calcium carbonate compound and is not referred to as coke. When calcium carbonate decomposes as a result of the high heat inside the furnace, it reacts with sandy impurities to form what is known as slag.
