Disclosed is a process for the treatment of metallurgical slag, the process comprising mechanical disintegration of a current of pyroplastic slag formed by initial cooling of a current of melting slag by means of water. This cooling comprises a first cooling phase taking place in the course of the flow of a continuous current of slag through an inclined channel into which a variable quantity of water is injected by pressure through the base, and a second cooling phase taking place during the largely free fall of the flow of slag onto a disintegration device. The initial slag cooling phase is accelerated or decelerated in accordance with the properties of the slag, and the intensity and/or duration of the mechanical disintegration is modified in accordance with the physical and granulometric properties of the slag required. |
