The molten slag aggregate produced in private melt-solidifying facilities which are entrusted by the municipal authorities to treat municipal solid waste, or that produced when municipal solid waste is treated together with industrial waste whose reuse is approved by the municipal authorities.
The molten slag aggregate subjected to magnetic selection, particle size adjustment, etc. property modification in the melt-solidifying facilities or separate facilities.
