Based on the four scenarios of different internal recycling strategies for BOF slag, life cycle assessment （LCA） as a valuable tool for industrial solid waste management was applied to analyze the contribution to reducing environmental impacts and resources burdens for each scenario. The global warming potential （GWP） re- sults of the four scenarios show that the scenario which performs best in carbon reduction cuts off 14.2G of GWP impacts of the worst scenario. The results of this study show that the optimized internal recycling process of BOF slag can improve the environmental performance of crude steel. It is important to assess and choose an appropriate strategy to recycle BOF slag from LCA perspective to reduce the environmental impacts and resource burdens as much as possible.展开更多
