Metallurgical slag is a waste product of metallurgical processes and an important raw material, for example, in the construction industry or road building. The use of slag depends, among other things, on its chemical composition. Sulphur is an undesirable element in most metallurgical products. This paper deals with determining sulphur content in different types of metallurgical slags by two different methods - X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and combustion elemental analysis. Using standards, it statistically compares the results of the two methods, evaluates the repeatability of the measurements, and assesses the amount of sulphur in different types of slags.
