Turnkey Projects
BF Slag Processing
For new processing technology of BF slag—ultrafine slag powder technology, Archon Group, and our partners are capable of undertaking projects of any capacity including engineering, design, equipment supply, supervision, training, and maintenance on EPS, EPC or Turnkey basis.
This new technology has been developed to use the slag from the Blast Furnace which is ground into an ultrafine powder to be added to concrete. The result is a sustainable, upcycled aggregrate product with lower cost and less environmental impact than other aggregrates.
The maximum theoretical value of slag ultrafine powder to substitute cement for making concrete can be as high as 90%.
According to laboratory trials and actual use in China as well as in America and Europe, the mechanical property and the durability index is better than normal concrete. In practical application, normally 20% – 50% ultrafine BF slag powder is blended to make concrete resulting in savings of US$ 4 -5 USD per cubic meter. Hence, BF slag in the form of ultrafine powder is the best choice for use and it features less investment and yet yielding quick and high returns.
Industrial Furnaces
Over the past few years, Archon Group and our partners have made continuous and sustained efforts in areas of design, engineering, technology development, refractory and equipment supply, construction, management & supervision, related to industrial furnaces to be executed on a turnkey basis.
For many years, we have been providing the optimal design, advanced automation systems and high-quality project contract management plans to all global clients. Today, our activities cover the full spectrum of the market covering iron and steel, non-ferrous metallurgy, machinery, petrochemical, building materials, thermal power generation, etc.
