Abstract

This paper examines the possibility of producing metallurgical cement type CEM III/A 42.5N at the
Kakanj Cement Factory. The tested samples contain respectively 46%, 41%, and 38% of granulated
blast furnace slag and the rest is clinker. According to the test results, all cement samples meet the
EN 197-1 standard in terms of physical-mechanical properties both after the initial period (2 days)
and after the final period (28 days). As a result of the conducted tests, it can be concluded that the
production of metallurgical cement type CEM III/A 42.5N at the Kakanj cement factory is possible
and that its production would provide a number of ecological and economic benefits.
