Saudi Arabia Successfully Tests Using Iron Slag in Cement Production

Riyadh, August (پاکستان پوائنٹ نیوز ‎‎‎ 25 أغسطس 2025ء) The five-month experiment, a collaboration with Riyadh Cement, involved using 1,273.88 tons of iron slag. The results showed that adding just 1% to 2% of iron slag improved the cement's properties.

This initiative confirms the feasibility of using industrial by-products to reduce waste and lower carbon emissions. MWAN emphasized that this experiment is a model for regulatory and industrial collaboration and is the first of many steps aimed at turning waste into sustainable economic resources, boosting investment, and supporting the Kingdom's sustainability goals.
