Mill scale though has a high-level content of iron (68 % – 72 %) yet it is still considered as an industrial waste in the form of iron oxide mainly because it gets contaminated with water and oil during the process of rolling.
Uses:
• Negative electrode for alkaline storage batteries
• Catalysts
• Cement clinker
• Heavy concrete and weight aggregates
• Composite counterweights for washing machines
• Ferro phosphorus and ferro molybdenum
• Heat treatment of casting foundries
• Flux for welding electrode coating
• Iron powder for powder metallurgy
• Friction materials
• Coloured glass
• Iron oxide pigments
• Mineral wool
• Electromagnetic radiation shielding material
• Materials for road construction
• Refractory mixes
• Treatments of water and soil
• Exothermic powders
• Iron ore sinter or iron ore pellets
• Coolant in a steel making furnace
