Three different methods, namely (i) Image Processing, (ii) XRD based on peak area or height and, (iii) XRD based on pulse counts have been adopted for estimation of glass content in granulated Blast Furnace Slag. Though the methods based on Image Analysis and XRD are found to be accurate, the latter is a time consuming technique. The average difference of results as estimated by Image Analysis taken over five samples is found to be 0.05% with XRD based on pulse counts and 0.19% with XRD based on peak area.
