India is expanding the use of indigenous Steel Slag Road Technology, developed through CSIR-Central Road Research Institute (CSIR-CRRI).

Steel slag is an industrial by-product generated during steel manufacturing.

Instead of treating it purely as waste, processed steel slag can be used in road construction.

Government material highlighted that the technology can potentially:

  • Produce roads with substantially higher strength

  • Reduce consumption of natural aggregates

  • Reuse industrial waste

  • Support the circular economy

It represents India's broader:

Waste to Wealth

approach.
