Rock wool material, in terms of raw materials, is made of basalt. Of course, different regions also use gabbro, etc. These rocks are made into fibrous materials through high-temperature melting and fibrosis during the production process, and are mostly used in various construction projects such as wall insulation and indoor and outdoor insulation. And what we want to talk about today is the environmental protection of rock wool.
Through the above introduction, we generally understand that rock wool is actually a rock product. And rocks in our daily life, whether in contact with air or water, or living in houses made of rock piles, will not cause any harm to us, because basalt itself is our common material.
Environmental protection, of course, cannot only be considered from the human category. We can also consider it through environmental pollution. The production process of rock wool boards needs to go through temperatures above 1400 degrees Celsius. And in this production process, using coking coal as the combustion heat source for heating is essential. And when coal burns, it will also produce a large amount of dust and harmful gases, and these are pollution and damage to the air environment. Therefore, relevant enterprises have also carried out a lot of environmental protection rectification to make the emitted gases meet relevant standards.
And in addition to the above pollution to humans and the environment, compared with other building materials, it still has relatively large use advantages. Because rock wool itself is rock, even after long-term use, it can be remelted in the furnace to remove impurities, and then produced again. Because of this particularity of rock wool, when it becomes construction waste, it also has recycling value. Therefore, for the use of rock wool insulation boards, there are still many benefits to speak of.
