Al2O3–Cr2O3 castables are one of the important refractories for hazardous waste incinerators. In this work, the hazardous waste slag corrosion resistance of Calcium Aluminate Cement (CAC) and SioxXZero bonded Al2O3–Cr2O3 castables were comparatively investigated. The results showed that the slag corrosion and penetration resistance were related to the adopted slags (SiO2-rich, CaO-rich slag, and Fe2O3-rich) … Weiterlesen …
