[0026]
　According to the present invention described above, the flooding of high rainfall areas and rivers is often local acidic even soil, easily and inexpensively without erosion by water, many kinds of elements of plants It can be supplied as a fertilizer.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0027]
　The following describes in detail preferred embodiments of the present invention.
[0028]
(Present invention will consider what have conducted)
　Prior to describing the embodiments of the present invention, the present inventors have carried out, the examination results about the demand for fertilizers and fertilizer application methods as described prior, in detail explain.
[0029]

　with respect to requested such as prior described, feedstock silicate phosphate fertilizer disclosed in Patent Document 1, (CaO content / SiO 2 at a content) basicity represented is of 1.0 to 1.4, since a lower basicity, hardly out effective acidic soils. Further, the raw material for silicic acid phosphate fertilizer disclosed in Patent Document 1, the content of soluble CaO is as low as 30 wt% or less, because basicity weaker still difficult out effective acidic soils.
[0030]
　Furthermore, in Patent Document 1, Al 2 O 3 The content has been described that 10 mass% or less, referring to Examples, Al 2 O 3 content of 4.84 wt% or more 6 and at .33% by weight or less, it has a high value exceeding 4% by weight. Al is easily combined with phosphate ions, and, because it is a substance that causes interfere with phosphorus absorption of plants, lower Al 2 O 3 content is desired.
[0031]
　Further, in Patent Document 1, description of content of boron, and not present description of the fertilizer effect of boron.
[0032]

　In the above Patent Document 2, a steel slag obtained from the hot metal pretreatment process steelmaking process as a raw material, a method of producing a slag phosphate fertilizer is disclosed, wherein a method for manufacturing a steel slag as a raw material for slag phosphate fertilizer is not present. Also, from Examples of Patent Document 2, Ku-soluble phosphate content of steelmaking slag as the raw material is not more than 2.56 mass% to 2.62 mass%, the slag phosphate fertilizer standard "V it can be seen that no not satisfy the condition that soluble phosphate content of 3 mass% or more. " The aforementioned Patent Document 2, description of content of boron and manganese, and, there is no description of a fertilizer effect of boron and manganese.
[0033]

　In Patent Document 3, that the content of the phosphoric acid is 5 wt% or less than 1.5 wt% have been described, of which, how much ratio can act effectively to plants, to whether a soluble phosphoric acid (phosphoric acid, eluting with ammonium page ether Man citrate solution), wherein is absent.
[0034]
　In Patent Document 3, that the content of CaO is less than 50% by weight to 20% by weight are described. The reason for such content, in the steel process, CaO content of less than 20% by weight, or have shown that steel slag of more than 50 mass% hardly occurs.
[0035]
　In Patent Document 3, the slag grains consisting of steelmaking slag, SiO 2 that contains the following 30 to 10 mass% is described. In Patent Document 3, as because, SiO 2 when it is less than 10 wt%, the amount of variable supply status silicate eluting decreases the ability photosynthesis by generating oxygen in the soil surface of paddy filled with water It has been shown to not be expected the effect of promoting the growth of diatoms having. In Patent Document 3, in steelmaking process SiO 2 for steel slag such as those containing more than 30 mass% hardly occurs, it is shown that difficult to obtain.
[0036]
　Such patent document 3, the slag basicity (= CaO / SiO 2 for the description of) the absence, as described above, the content of CaO is 50 wt% or less than 20 wt%, and, SiO 2 content becomes possible may not more than 10 wt% to 30 wt%, basicity of the slag, 0.67 (CaO: 20 wt%, SiO 2 : 30 wt%) from 5 (CaO: 50 wt% , SiO 2 : can take a value of a very wide range of up to 10% by weight). Basicity of the slag, phosphorus, iron, because strongly related to the dissolution of the fertilizer active ingredients such as manganese, basicity of the settings suitable for the elution of these fertilizers effective element is considered necessary.
[0037]
　Further, in Patent Document 3, the slag grains consisting of steelmaking slag, it is described that contains more than 10 wt% 3.5 wt% or more of MnO. In Patent Document 3, as because, when the content of MnO is less than 3.5 mass%, may dissolution does not occur in sufficient multivalent manganese to raise the redox potential of the paddy soil it has been shown that there is. Here, the stated rate of application in Patent Document 3 is 0.5 t / ha or more 5t / ha, in application rate of this range, sufficient polyvalent manganese to raise the redox potential of the paddy soil it is contemplated that the elution occurs. When the amount of application is smaller than the above range is considered to be necessary to consider a more efficient conditions for manganese is eluted.
[0038]
　As described above, in Patent Document 3, since the description of the slag basicity absent, CaO content and SiO in Patent Document 3 2 in the range of basicity 0.67 to 5 estimated from the content, phosphorus Ya the basicity suitable for efficient elution of manganese, not been studied at all.
[0039]
　In Patent Document 3, description of the boron is not present, from any tissue of slag, even absent according to whether the phosphate, calcium, silicon, manganese and the like are eluted. In addition, has a 0.5 t / ha or more 5t / ha with regard application rates, requires a larger amount of application, costly regarding exertion for sow and cost of the fertilizer it is disadvantageous.
[0040]

　The hot metal pretreatment methods disclosed in Patent Documents 4 and 5, using one of the converter type refining furnace, desiliconization treatment and by performing the dephosphorization process in order, and slag containing an effective silicate fertilizer, and slag containing phosphoric acid will be recovered separately. However, as the fertilizer, it is preferable that the silicic acid and phosphoric acid is contained together. Further, by performing the desiliconization treatment and dephosphorization process separately, from the viewpoint of obtaining a slag as a fertilizer raw material, it takes time and cost. Further, Patent Document 4 and Patent Document 5, the composition of dephosphorization slag produced is not disclosed at all, nor is there description of a fertilizer. Thus, for whether these Patent Documents 4 and slag disclosed in Patent Document 5 is suitable for fertilizer, it is impossible to determine.
[0041]
　Further, in order to appropriately control the composition of the slag to be produced, the present inventors, as described in detail below freeboard (i.e., the length from the throat to the hot metal liquid surface in the converter type pot ) it is considered to be one of the important conditions. However, Patent Document 4, using one of the converter type refining furnace, the freeboard when performing desiliconization treatment and dephosphorization treatment in order not disclosed at all. In Patent Document 5, only for desiliconization treatment there is a description of the ratio of freeboard, the dephosphorization process, there is no description of the freeboard.
[0042]

　Patent Document 6, and a method for producing a siliceous fertilizers are disclosed in the hot metal pretreatment step of steel production process, Ku converter slag caused by hot metal pretreatment soluble by adding phosphoric acid, it is described that the Ku-soluble phosphoric acid 5 mass% or more. In Patent Document 6, the phosphoric acid content of the original slag, have been described that is less than 4 mass% to 1 mass%. In addition, Patent Document 6, containing boron, and, for the fertilizer effect of boron, not described at all. In Patent Document 6, there is no description about the freeboard during slag production, even absent described for collection and cooling process according Haikasu slag.
[0043]

　Patent Document 7, a coal ash containing only silicate not dissolution, by mixing with slag stainless steel melted state, the dissolution of the silicate Enabling silicic acid fertilizer is disclosed. However, such siliceous fertilizers, in order to be slag stainless steel, a high content of chromium. For this reason, or large amount of application of the fertilizer to such slag as a raw material, and a long period of time or applied, there is concern that the higher the chromium content of the soil. Moreover, since it is necessary to mix the coal ash becomes a factor of increase in cost due to increase in operation.
[0044]

　Patent Document 8, a manufacturing method of fertilizer phosphoric acid containing slag is disclosed, phosphoric acid content of such fertilizer phosphoric acid containing slag, 18.32 there is a mass% or more. However, such phosphate content is significant deviation phosphate content manufacturable steelmaking slag in the hot metal pretreatment and decarburization of a normal steelmaking process, molten iron pretreatment or decarburization conventional steelmaking process in the process, it is impossible to manufacture. Therefore, special steps in order to prepare such slag is required, which causes a cost increase.
[0045]

　in Patent Document 9, the manufacturing method of the phosphate fertilizer material resulting from steel production process is disclosed, phosphate slag to be according phosphate fertilizer material content is 15 mass% or more. However, such phosphate content is significant deviation phosphate content manufacturable steelmaking slag in the hot metal pretreatment and decarburization of a normal steelmaking process, molten iron pretreatment or decarburization conventional steelmaking process in the process, it is impossible to manufacture. Therefore, special steps in order to prepare such slag is required, which causes a cost increase.
[0046]

　First, Ca will be described.
　Ca is an essential fertilizer elements in the plant. In fertilizers, steel slag, when denoted the content of Ca, since the amount contained in terms of CaO in the oxide is denoted in the following, represents the content of Ca as CaO.
[0055]
　CaO is a compound showing alkalinity, have an effect on improvement of acid soils. When the content of CaO in the steelmaking slag is less than 38 wt%, the alkali resistance is weak, in acidic soils iron overload is occurring, is insufficient improvement of acidic soils, included in the steelmaking slag Fe is a concern that exacerbate the iron overload that is. On the other hand, if the CaO content in the steelmaking slag exceeds 48 mass%, the CaO content is too high, which is another component included in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 , MnO, boron, total iron, sulfur, SiO 2 , MgO, Al 2 O 3 the total of the content of the order to 100% or less, than the desired value either in the content of these other components order also would have to be lowered, which is not preferable. Moreover, steel slag used in the present embodiment, it is preferred that large quantities stable supply, it is preferable that that can be produced by an ordinary steel production process. From this viewpoint, the content of CaO fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, a 48 mass% 38 mass% or more. The content of CaO is preferably at most 39 mass% or more 47 wt%, more preferably is 46 wt% or less than 40 wt%.
[0056]
　The content of such CaO, for example, can be measured by X-ray fluorescence analysis.
　Specifically, the content of CaO is a known measurement sample, a plurality prepared while changing the content, measuring the fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained from Ca measurement sample prepared by the fluorescent X-ray analyzer. The resulting a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Ca was using, and the content of CaO, advance a calibration curve showing the relationship between the content and the fluorescent X-ray intensity of CaO. Thereafter, the sample content is unknown CaO of interest, a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Ca was measured by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer, using a fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained, the calibration curve, the, of CaO it is possible to identify the content.
[0057]
　Here, the sample of interest is, in terms of samples were taken as follows to prepare the following procedure to measure the fluorescent X-ray intensity measured under the following conditions.
　That is, the analytical sample was set in a vibration mill (manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries T-100 Model Co., Ltd.), the analytical sample is crushed into powder (instrument conditions: milling time 30 sec, 1000 rpm). The ground samples, using a sieve having a mesh opening 212 m, to implement the distribution. Subsequently, the platinum dish was charged with a sample 0.3 g, lithium iodide (separation material) ear spoon 2 cups about that passed through the sieve of lithium tetraborate (flux) 6 g, the mesh opening (212 m), the bead 1,150 ° C. × 10 minutes × at samplers 3-4 times melted performed to produce a glass bead. Similarly, processing performed in a glass bead also standard. A calibration curve with fluorescent X-ray analyzer (Rigaku Denki Kogyo ZSX PrimusII), carrying out the check analysis by quantitative and standards of the sample passed through the sieve of the mesh opening (212 m). This analysis method is based on JIS standard "JIS M 8205".
[0058]
[SiO 2 : 22% by weight to 30% by weight]
　Subsequently, Si will be described.
　Si, although not an essential element of the plant, rice, wheat, such as corn, rice for the family of silicic acid plant, is a very important element. About 5% of the dry weight of the plants rice silicate (SiO 2 occupied) is. In fertilizers, steel slag, when notation Si content, SiO oxide 2 for the amount contained in terms of is denoted hereinafter, SiO 2 represents the content of Si as.
[0059]
　Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, as prior mentioned, compared to the composition of a typical steel slag, SiO 2 contains much. Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, since it contains many valid variable supply condition silicate plants, to supply Si against grasses like, are effective.

　SiO fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment 2 If the content of less than 22 wt%, the plants hand, increases not be able to supply sufficient Si, undesirable. On the other hand, SiO 2 when the amount of exceeding 30 mass%, since the higher the CaO content due to restrictions of the basicity will be described later, in other components contained in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment there, MnO, boron, total iron, sulfur, SiO 2 , MgO, Al 2 O 3 the total of the content of the order to 100% or less, than the desired value either in the content of these other components order also would have to be lowered, which is not preferable. Thus, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, SiO 2 content of is 30 wt% or less than 22 wt%. SiO 2 content of preferably not more than 29 wt% 23 wt% or more, more preferably 28 wt% or less than 24 wt%.
[0061]
　Incidentally, such SiO 2 content is, for example, can be measured by X-ray fluorescence analysis.
　Specifically, SiO 2 content of a known measurement sample, a plurality prepared while changing the content, measuring the fluorescent X-ray intensity from Si measurement sample prepared by the fluorescent X-ray analyzer. The resulting a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Si were, SiO 2 and the content of, using, SiO 2 in advance a calibration curve showing the relationship between the content of the fluorescent X-ray intensity. Then, SiO attention 2 for the unknown content of the sample, the fluorescent X-ray intensity from Si measured by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer, using a fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained, the calibration curve, the, SiO 2 can identify the content of.
[0062]
　Here, the measuring conditions of preparation method and fluorescent X-ray intensity of the sample of interest is the same as in the case of CaO.
[0063]
[Basicity (CaO content / SiO 2 content): 1.5 Excess 2.2]
　fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, CaO content and SiO as the 2 conditions on content both satisfied, and, (CaO content / SiO 2 basicity represented by content), a 1.5 excess 2.2 or less.
[0064]
　In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, the content of CaO is because less 48 wt% 38 wt% or more, SiO 2 content of, when the basicity and considered in steps 0.1, below It is defined as.
　　If basicity of 1.8: 21 wt% or more 27 wt% or less
　　when basicity of 1.7: 22 wt% or more 28 wt% or less
　　when basicity of 1.6: 24% by weight to 30% by weight the following
　　case basicity of 1.5: 25 wt% to 32 wt% or less
　　when basicity of 1.4: 27 wt% or more 34 wt% or less
[0065]
　SiO defined in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment 2 become within range of the content of (22% by weight to 30% by weight), as described above, basicity from 1.6 to 1 a case where the range of .7.
[0066]
　On the other hand, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, SiO 2 content of, since more than 30 mass% to 22 mass%, CaO content is, when the basicity and considered in steps 0.1, It is as follows.
　　If basicity of 2.1: 46 wt% or more 63 wt% or less
　　when basicity of 2.2: 48 wt% or more 66 wt% or less
　　when basicity of 2.3: 51 wt% or more 69 wt% Less than
[0067]
　It shall include the above results within the range of the content of CaO as defined in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment (38 wt% or more 48 wt% or less), basicity from 2.1 to 2. a case made within 2 range.
[0068]
　Therefore, the basicity of 1.5 exceeds 2.2, in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, CaO content and SiO 2 said to be capable of basicity to satisfy the condition regarding content .
[0069]
　Incidentally, in the above description, the basicity 1.4-1.8 vicinity, and, the reason for focusing on near basicity 2.1-2.3 are as follows.
[0070]
　Properties characterize most characteristic properties of slag are basic. CaO is a component which is a major cause of basic slag. Further, in actual steel process, many of the basicity of the steel slag obtained by dephosphorization process of hot metal pretreatment, is about 1.5-1.8, it is easy to obtain. Moreover, silicic acid, phosphoric acid, manganese, that the slag basicity that can achieve good further balance the dissolution of fertilizer active ingredient, such as boron is in the vicinity of 1.5-1.8, we test study It was found as a result. Therefore, in the above description, attention is paid to the vicinity of the basicity 1.4-1.8.
[0071]
　On the other hand, as described above, in the actual steel process, many of the basicity of the steel slag obtained by dephosphorization process of hot metal pre-treatment, is about 1.5-1.8, basicity more and to produce becomes steelmaking slag, either performs operations for increasing the content of CaO, SiO 2 becomes possible to perform the operation for lowering the content of. Here, the operation for increasing the content of CaO, for the increasing the amount of lime added as CaO source, expensive. Therefore, SiO 2 by performing the operation to relatively low content of, it is possible while suppressing an increase in cost to obtain a steel slag as described above. The steelmaking slag basicity is 2 or more by using as a fertilizer raw material, more CaO can be included in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag. CaO is alkaline, in order to exert an effect on pH for an improved low acidic soils, the normal steelmaking process even were different operations, it is significant to realize the basicity as described above. Therefore, in the above description, it was focused on the vicinity of the basicity 2.1-2.3.
[0072]
　In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, when the basicity is 1.5 or less, considering from the viewpoint of a fertilizer feedstock, since the content of CaO is relatively low, improvement of acidic soils undesirably effect is weakened. On the other hand, fertilization in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, when the basicity exceeds 2.2, From the viewpoint of a fertilizer feedstock, the excessive CaO than necessary CaO to improvements in acid soils to may undesirably cause increase in cost of lime added as CaO source. Thus, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, basicity is was a 1.5 excess 2.2 or less. The basicity With 1.5 exceeded 2.2, in terms of a fertilizer material, it is possible to suppress the cost of the lime is added to raise the moderate improvement and CaO content of acid soils . Basicity, preferably, 1.6 or more 2.1 or less, more preferably 1.6 to 2.0.
[0073]
　Further, by adjusting the basicity to 1.5 excess 2.2 or less, the steelmaking slag produced, 2CaO · SiO 2 -3CaO · P 2 O 5 solid solution, and, FeO-MnO-CaO-SiO 2 based solid solution is likely to be formed together. Further, as described in detail below, in the manufacturing process of the steel slag, by quenching in solidifying the slag, two solid solution as described above is more likely to be more formed. These solid solutions, as described in detail below, in addition to silicic acid, in order to promote the elution of phosphoric acid and manganese and boron, as a steel slag for fertilizers, to have a solid solution thereof together preferable.
[0074]
[P 2 O 5 : 2 wt% or more and 8 mass% or less, soluble P 2 O 5 ratio of: 50%
　will be described below P.
　P is an essential element of N, along with the K plant. P is the energy metabolites, such as DNA or RNA, ATP is a gene, an element necessary such as constituents of cell membranes. In addition, P acts on the growing point of the root, it is an element that is effective in the growth of roots. If P is insufficient, root growth is suppressed.
[0075]
　In fertilizers, steel slag, when notation P content, P oxide 2 O 5 for the amount contained in terms of is denoted in the following, P 2 O 5 content of P as represent.
[0076]
　It is acidic, and, in the Al and Fe is finally developed condition ionized soils, P is aluminum phosphate (AlPO 4 ) and iron phosphate (FePO 4 will be insolubilized as), plant roots P phosphate ions (PO containing 4 3 could not be absorbed). Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, contains CaO and MgO, and, because it is alkaline, while preventing Al and Fe from the soil to improve the acid soil to elute ionized, and, the P, phosphate ions (PO 4 3- can be gradually eluted as).
[0077]
　In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P is, Ca 2 SiO 4 -Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 is present primarily in the composition. In soil, the fertilizer with fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, Ca, together with Si, P is, PO 4 3- gradually elutes as. Accordingly, in the long term several months level falls one work crops such as rice, without being insolubilized by Al and Fe, to plants, it is possible to gradually supply the P.
[0078]
　In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 content is if it is less than 2 mass%, it is impossible to reliably achieve the above effects. Therefore, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 content of, and 2 mass% or more.
[0079]
　On the other hand, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 in the case where the content of more than 8% by weight, in view from the perspective of a fertilizer feedstock, P soil 2 O 5 is another might be supplied excessively lacks balance between nitrogen and potassium fertilizers three major elements, which is not preferable. Thus, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 content of is 8 mass% or less.
[0080]
　Incidentally, in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 content of preferably not more than 3 mass% or more and 8 wt%, more preferably 3 mass% or more 6 wt% or less is there.
[0081]
　The Fertilizer Control Act, as tailings phosphate fertilizer, Ku-soluble P 2 O 5 defines the content of 3 mass% or more. Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, but not necessarily those meeting the specifications of tailings phosphate fertilizer, for the reasons mentioned above, can be expected fertilizer effect of P. In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, P 2 O 5 that content is 2 mass% or more, Ku-soluble P 2 O 5 content of corresponds to approximately 1.0 wt% .
[0082]
　On the other hand, rather than soluble P eluting with 2% aqueous citric acid 2 O 5 from the soluble P eluted with citric acid aqueous solution of ammonium neutral (page ether Man ammonium citrate solution) 2 O 5 towards is actually plant P can be absorbed from roots 2 O 5 with respect, is known to be a more appropriate value. Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, the microstructure control the composition of the slag, P contained in the slag 2 O 5 of the soluble P 2 O 5 the percentage of which was succeeded in raising more than 50% is there. That is, with reference to the method of manufacturing a fertilizer feedstock steel slag as described in detail below, by the production of fertilizers for steelmaking slag, P contained in the slag 2 O 5 soluble P in 2 O 5 mass proportions may be 50% or more. P contained in slag 2 O 5 soluble P in 2 O 5 the upper limit of the mass ratio of, not particularly defined, but the higher the better, can not be 100% in view of the results of the analysis by making a number of actually steel slag samples, the upper limit is about 85%. P contained in slag 2 O 5 soluble P in 2 O 5 mass ratio of is preferably 60% or more, more preferably 70% or more.
[0083]
　Incidentally, P 2 O 5 content of, for example, can be measured by X-ray fluorescence analysis.
　Specifically, the content of P is a known measurement sample, a plurality prepared while changing the content, measuring the fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained from P measurement sample prepared by the fluorescent X-ray analyzer. And the fluorescent X-ray intensity from P obtained, P was calculated from the content of P 2 O 5 equivalent amount and, using, P 2 O 5 the relationship between the equivalent amount and the fluorescent X-ray intensity of you create a calibration curve shown in advance. Thereafter, the sample content is unknown P of interest, to measure the fluorescent X-ray intensity from P by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer, using a fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained, the calibration curve, the, P 2 O 5 content of can be identified.
[0084]
　Here, the measuring conditions of preparation method and fluorescent X-ray intensity of the sample of interest is the same as in the case of CaO.
[0085]
　Further, soluble P 2 O 5 content were used page ether Man ammonium citrate solution, it can be measured by banner de ammonium molybdate absorptiometry. Measured P 2 O 5 content and soluble P of 2 O 5 with a content of, P 2 O 5 soluble P in 2 O 5 can be calculated by mass ratio.
[0086]
: [MgO 1 mass% or more and 8 wt% or less]
　Subsequently, a description will be given Mg.
　Mg is a necessary element for plants, there is a secondary element.
[0087]
　Generally, MgO content of steel slag is a much lower value than the CaO content. Mg contained in the steel slag is attributable to Mg to mainly elute from the furnace wall refractory brick added and BOF in the sintering process. In fertilizers, steel slag, when denoted the content of Mg is, since the amount contained in terms of MgO oxide is denoted hereinafter, represents the content of Mg as MgO.
[0088]
　MgO is alkaline, have an effect on improvement of acid soils with CaO. In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, when the content of MgO is less than 1 wt% can not achieve the effect of improving the acid soil as described above. On the other hand, in view from the point of view of fertilizer raw materials, ideal lime / magnesia ratio is about 2.5-6. The fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, since the high 38% ~ 48% CaO content, in order to satisfy the above lime / magnesia ratio, for example, lime / magnesia ratio maximum 6 even for, magnesia content becomes 6.3% to 8%. However, unless also be added by adding a MgO source in actual steel production process, it is difficult to make more than 8 wt% of MgO content. Thus, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, MgO content is 8 mass% 1 mass% or more. The content of MgO is preferably not more than 2 mass% or more and 8 wt%, more preferably, it is 8 wt% or less than 3 wt%.
[0089]
　The content of MgO is, for example, can be measured by X-ray fluorescence analysis.
　Specifically, the content of Mg is a known measurement sample, a plurality prepared while changing the content, measuring the fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained from Mg measurement sample prepared by the fluorescent X-ray analyzer. And the fluorescent X-ray intensity from Mg obtained, with a conversion of MgO calculated from the content of Mg, advance a calibration curve showing the relationship between the equivalent amount and the fluorescent X-ray intensity of MgO keep. Thereafter, the sample content is unknown Mg of interest, a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Mg measured by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer, using a fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained, the calibration curve, the, of MgO it is possible to identify the content.
[0090]
　Here, the measuring conditions of preparation method and fluorescent X-ray intensity of the sample of interest is the same as in the case of CaO.
[0091]
[Total iron: 7 mass% or more and less than 15 wt%
　will now be explained Fe.
　Fe is a trace elements necessary for plants, and iron-containing material is used as a special fertilizer. However, in soils of acidic, Fe is due to the possibility of generating iron overload in plants, is also an element may become harmful to plants.
[0092]
　Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, contains CaO at 38 wt% or more 48 wt% or less, and, MgO from that containing 8 wt% or less 1 mass% or more, an alkaline, and, since the suppressed to a relatively low content of less than 7 wt% to 15 wt% of total iron as described below, even soil where there is fear of iron overload in acidic soils, Fe as a trace element the can be supplied to the plant.
[0093]
　As a feature of the fertilizer with fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, without erosion by rainwater because bulk density is large, a feature that can be eluted elements each with a long-term fertilizer effect remained. Fe, in order to increase the bulk density of the fertilizer with fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment is also an important element.
[0094]
　Fe, in various steelmaking slag, is an element inevitably contained. In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, the bulk specific gravity becomes small when the content of total iron is less than 7 mass%, fertilizers containing fertilizers for steelmaking slag according to the present embodiment in rainwater runoff the possibility of increases. On the other hand, when the content of total iron is 15 mass% or more, the possibility of generating iron overload in a plant in acid soil is increased, undesirably. Accordingly, the content of total iron fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, and less than 7 wt% to 15 wt%. The content of total iron is preferably not more than 8 wt% to 14 wt%, more preferably is 13 wt% or less 9 mass% or more.
[0095]
　When the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment is analyzed by X-ray diffraction apparatus, FeO-CaO-SiO 2 peaks minerals attributable to system is observed. On the other hand, electron microprobe tissue fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment after immersion long time in water: when observed by (Electron Probe Micro Analyzer EPMA), concentration moieties present overlap Fe and Mn traces of decline can be seen. Therefore, FeO-MnO-CaO-SiO to MnO and FeO are each other dissolved 2 the solid solution is formed, is considered elution of Mn into the soil along with the Fe is further promoted. The oxidation state of such Fe, in line with the manufacturing method of the fertilizer feedstock steel slag as described in detail below, by the production of fertilizers for steelmaking slag, it is realized. Incidentally, the name of a solid solution in the present embodiment is was clearly the major chemical components, their nature may also include components not explicitly. For example, FeO-MnO-CaO-SiO 2 in the solid solution, also include those of MgO solid solution.
[0096]
　Incidentally, with reference to the method of manufacturing a fertilizer feedstock steel slag as described in detail below, by the production of fertilizers for steelmaking slag, fertilizer feedstock steel slag produced is a common converter process compared with steelmaking slag produced, the content of total iron is relatively low, with a range of content as described above is achieved, the oxidation state of Fe as described above is realized.
[0097]
　The content of total iron, for example, can be measured by X-ray fluorescence analysis.
　Specifically, the content of total iron is a known measurement sample, a plurality prepared while changing the content, measuring the fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained from Fe measurement sample prepared by the fluorescent X-ray analyzer. The resulting a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Fe were, and the content of total iron, with the advance a calibration curve showing the relationship between the content and the fluorescent X-ray intensity of the total iron. Thereafter, the sample content is unknown total iron of interest, a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Fe measured by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer, using a fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained, the calibration curve, the total it is possible to identify the content of iron.
[0098]
　Here, the measuring conditions of preparation method and fluorescent X-ray intensity of the sample of interest is the same as in the case of CaO.
[0099]
[MnO: 3 mass% to 10 mass%, Ku proportion of soluble manganese: 80%]
　following describes Mn.
　Mn is also an element that there is a fertilizer effect on the plant as a trace element. In fertilizers, steel slag, when denoted Mn content, since the amount contained in terms of MnO oxide is denoted hereinafter, represents the content of Mn as MnO.
[0100]
　In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, when the content of MnO is less than 3% by mass, due to the low content of MnO, from fertilizers containing fertilizers for steelmaking slag according to the present embodiment elution of Mn is not sufficient, fertilizer effect of Mn can not be exhibited. On the other hand, if the content of MnO is more than 10 mass%, particularly in acidic soils, since would cause manganese hyperkinesia plants, unfavorable. Thus, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, the content of MnO is 10 mass% or less than 3 wt%. The content of MnO is preferably not more than 4 mass% to 9 mass%, and more preferably, it is 8 wt% or less than 5 wt%.
[0101]
　Further, the fertilizer in the raw material for steelmaking slag according to the present embodiment, 2CaO · SiO 2 -3CaO · P 2 O 5 solid solution, and, FeO-MnO-CaO-SiO 2 by forming both solid solution, as described above in addition to the elution of such Mn is further promoted, it becomes possible to facilitate the dissolution of the silicate and phosphate and boron.
[0102]
　Plants has been known to roots secrete organic acids, the soluble manganese walking manganese eluting 2% aqueous citric acid, be regarded as a plant available manganese, and an index. Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, the composition and structure control, among MnO contained in the steel slag, has been successful in a soluble MnO to rather more than 80%. That is, with reference to the method of manufacturing a fertilizer feedstock steel slag as described in detail below, by the production of fertilizers for steel slag, a Ku weight ratio of soluble MnO in MnO contained in the slag, 80% it can be equal to or greater than. The upper limit of the mass ratio of the Ku-soluble MnO in MnO contained in the slag, and is not intended to define, but the higher the better, in view of the results of analysis by actually making many steelmaking slag sample 100% can not be, the upper limit is about 95%. Weight ratio of Ku-soluble MnO in MnO contained in the slag is preferably 85% or more, more preferably 90% or more.
[0103]
　The content of MnO is, for example, can be measured by X-ray fluorescence analysis.
　Specifically, the content of Mn is a known measurement sample, a plurality prepared while changing the content, measuring the fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained from Mn measurement sample prepared by the fluorescent X-ray analyzer. Previously prepared and the fluorescent X-ray intensity from Mn obtained, and in terms of MnO calculated from the content of Mn, with the calibration curve showing the relationship between the equivalent amount and the fluorescent X-ray intensity of MnO keep. Thereafter, the sample content is unknown Mn of interest, a fluorescent X-ray intensity from Mn measured by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer, using a fluorescent X-ray intensities obtained, the calibration curve, the, the MnO it is possible to identify the content.
[0104]
　Here, the measuring conditions of preparation method and fluorescent X-ray intensity of the sample of interest is the same as in the case of CaO.
[0105]
　The content of Ku-soluble MnO is that eluted with 2% aqueous citric acid solution and flame atomic absorption spectrometry, National Institute for Food Quality, Labeling and Consumer Safety Technology Center (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center: FAMIC) by defined fertilizers by using the method described in equal test method (2016), it can be measured. Using the content of the content and Ku-soluble MnO of the measured MnO, it is possible to calculate the Ku mass percentage of soluble MnO in MnO.
[0106]
[Boron: Less than 0.005 wt% 0.05 wt%, the proportion of Ku-soluble boron: 95%]
　following describes boron.
　Boron is a trace element necessary for the plant, and boron deficiency, it is known that boron deficiency occurs in the plant. Boron is an element necessary for the synthesis of the plant cell wall.
[0107]
　On the other hand, if the boron content of the soil is more than 5 mg / kg, it is known that there is a possibility that the boron overload disorder occurs plants. Boron content of 5 mg / kg is very low. As a fertilizer containing boron, which is commercially available, for example, borate fertilizers (Ku-soluble boron 35% or higher), 熔成 boron fertilizers (Ku-soluble boron about 24%), 熔成 trace elements compound fertilizer (FTE) (Ku there are soluble boron 5-9%), to include any amounts of boron, be boron hyperkinesia occurs is concerned by the excessive use of these fertilizers. These commercial fertilizer applied to the soil to the boron content of the soil below 5 mg / kg is not easy.
[0108]
　For example, when applying the boron content of 5% fertilizer to the soil 1 kg, as the boron has not been contained in the soil, a small amount of fertilizer hereinafter 100mg to the boron content of the soil than 5 mg / kg uniform It was mixed with soil so that there is a need to apply. Therefore, in general application rates, a large concern that boron is excessively applied. Although in order to uniformly applied using a small amount of fertilizer that contains these amounts of boron may be considered to apply by dissolving or dispersing in water, in the conventional fertilizer by rainwater, it is considered that easy erosion. Therefore, in order to supply a boron optimally in soil, the boron content is low and the type of fertilizer without erosion is considered preferable.
[0109]
　In the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, when the content of boron is less than 0.005 mass% (= 50mg / kg), fertilizer with fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment with respect to the soil even if the application of, for supplying the amount of boron is small, it can not exhibit the fertilizer effect of boron to the plant. On the other hand, steel slag, such as the content of boron is 0.05 mass% or more is not obtained in normal steelmaking process, adding dare add boron source such as borax in order to increase the boron content It is not preferable because the cost increase factor. Also, fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, since the ratio of the Ku-soluble boron in containing boron is very high as compared with the conventional boron fertilizers, the boron content is less than 0.05 wt% also, there is a boron supply capacity comparable to conventional boron fertilizers. Thus, the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, the boron content is less than 0.005 mass% 0.05 mass% or more. The content of boron, preferably not more than 0.05 mass% to 0.01 mass%, more preferably 0.05 wt% or less than 0.02 mass%.
[0110]
　As described above, plants are known to roots secrete organic acids, the soluble boron walking boron eluting 2% aqueous citric acid, it is regarded as boron available plants, one One of the indicators. Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, CaO and SiO 2 basicity which is the ratio of the content of a 1.5 excess 2.2 or less, and a method of cooling when the temperature and the slag solidifies when molten slag produced performed tissue control by devising a boron for example, SiO 2 SiO in the compound of 2 the portion of the B 2 O 3 that is generated as such compounds substituted with, including boron easily soluble form in soil succeeded in, 95% or more of boron contained in the steel slag, could be a Ku-soluble boron. That is, with reference to the method of manufacturing a fertilizer feedstock steel slag as described in detail below, by the production of fertilizers for steel slag, a weight ratio of Ku-soluble boron in the boron contained in the slag, 95% it can be equal to or greater than. Ku by a high proportion of soluble boron, despite the low content of boron contained in the fertilizer feedstock steel slag, it is possible to obtain high fertilization.
[0111]
　The content of boron, for example, can be measured by ICP emission spectrometry.
　Specifically, the sample 0.5g reagent (sodium carbonate 2g, sodium peroxide 3g) to be had to the Ni crucible, carrying out the alkali fusion (burner heating). Put Ni crucible after alkali fusion in a beaker, water and hydrochloric acid (1: 9) When Ni crucible contents are melted put, removed Ni crucible, heating the beaker to dissolve the sample. Resulting lysate sample inductively coupled plasma: introducing into (apparatus by Hitachi High-Tech Science SPS3100), light emission by boron as measured at a wavelength 249.753Nm, to quantify the boron. This analysis method is a method based on JIS A 5011-3 Annex A.
[0112]
　Further, Ku content of soluble boron, of 2% citric acid aqueous solution elution and azomethine H method using, National Institute for Food Quality, Labeling and Consumer Safety Technology Center (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center: FAMIC) fertilizer defined by such method described in test method (2016) the use of a measurable. Using the content of the content and Ku-soluble boron measured boron, it is possible to calculate the mass ratio of the Ku-soluble boron in the boron.
[0113]
: Sulfur 0.1 wt% to 0.6 wt%]
　Subsequently, a description will be given of sulfur.
　Sulfur, cysteine, methionine, such as the biosynthesis of sulfur-containing amino acid, and further is an element required for the biosynthesis of proteins, leeks, onions, is in growth, such as garlic is an indispensable element.
[0114]
　If the sulfur content of fertilizers feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment is less than 0.1 wt%, even if application of the fertilizer with fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment in the soil, the supply of sulfur for small amount, it may not be exhibited fertilizer effect of sulfur on plants. On the other hand, if the sulfur content of the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment is more than 0.6 mass%, sulfur is supplied from the manure causes hydrogen sulfide occurs in the soil, such as rot roots there is a possibility that the problem arises. Therefore, the sulfur content of the fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment, 0.6 mass% 0.1 mass% or more. The content of sulfur is preferably not more than 0.2 mass% to 0.6 mass%, more preferably 0.6 wt% or less than 0.3 wt%.
[0115]
　The content of such sulfur is, for example, be measured by alkali fusion and ICP emission spectrometry.
　Specifically, the sample 0.5g reagent (sodium carbonate 2g, sodium peroxide 3g) to be had to the Ni crucible, carrying out the alkali fusion (burner heating). Put Ni crucible after alkali fusion in a beaker, water and hydrochloric acid (1: 9) When Ni crucible contents are melted put, removed Ni crucible, dissolving the sample by heating the beaker. Resulting lysate sample is introduced into a high-frequency inductively coupled plasma (apparatus by Hitachi High-Tech Science SPS3100), the light emission by sulfur as measured at a wavelength 182.036Nm, to quantify the sulfur. This analysis method is a method based on JIS A 5011-3 Annex A.
[0116]

Weight ratio of those having a particle size is less than 600μm, more preferably 80% or more.
[0130]
　Although the manure feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment has been described in detail.
[0131]

　Next, a method of manufacturing a fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment will be described in detail. Fertilizer feedstock steel slag according to the present embodiment is different from the blast furnace hot metal, by performing a specific dephosphorization process, as described below, is manufactured.

At this time, (CaO content / SiO 2 and the content) slag basicity represented by becomes the 1.5 exceeded 2.2 or less and more than 10 wt% MnO content of 3 mass% or more in the slag It is manufactured to be.
[0133]
[1: blast furnace hot metal injection process]
　(1) a blast furnace hot metal injection step shown in the generated blast furnace hot metal is a step of injecting into the converter type pan. The blast furnace hot metal, when injected into the converter type pot, when the void ratio is expressed by (freeboard / furnace height) is less than 0.5 as a result of the freeboard too small, hot metal liquid surface since voids present above becomes too narrowed, it is difficult to sufficiently forming the blast furnace hot metal, sufficiently undesirably becomes impossible to proceed dephosphorization reaction. On the other hand, if the void ratio expressed by (freeboard / furnace height) exceeds 0.9, undesirably the amount of molten iron to dephosphorization becomes less and less inefficient, also, of the converter-type pot to become the little blast furnace hot metal is not injected into the productivity reduces the operating efficiency decreases. Void ratio expressed by (freeboard / furnace height) is preferably not less than 0.5 and not more than 0.8, more preferably 0.6 to 0.8.
