i want to destroy them, even my slag slurry plant cant slow the production.

is there a way to demolish them ?

get a bigger slag processor? or put them in a warehouse and shoot it.

You should use the recipes for sorting, which produce no slag.

f.e. : 2 crushed jivolite + 2 crushed saphirite -> 4 iron ore

If you have angel's bioprocessing, crush it into crushed stone, liquify it into mineral water, then turn it into green algae for making cellulose. From there you have a few options for what to do with it; plastic, fuel bricks, circuit boards, co2. I've had some early to mid game factories run almost entirely off of crushed stone (partly from crushing slag) as a fuel source this way.

Get the flarestack mod and throw waste products into incinerators if you really cant think about what to do with them.

Sometimes it is convenient to do that... I really need X product, but it's throwing X Y and Z at me and I don't want to think about Y and Z at the moment.

Can you gives your base and production picture ?

30 hour and I still doesn't know the purpose of bio processing.

I've been doing a lot of restarting recently for testing purposes, so I don't have a base in a useful state to share, but here's the setup I've been using for early-game green algae:

It's designed to fit in a tier 2 factorissimo building, but it's pretty easy to add power poles to (and the first 2-3 I build are generally before I have the tech for the factory building, so they get put out in the open).
It turns 90 mineralized water into 18 cellulose per second, and consumes about 7.7 cellulose per second to make co2 to feed the algae farms, for a net of just over 10 cellulose per second. A liquifier can turn 15 crushed stone into 150 mineralized water per second, so 2 liquifiers can feed 3 of these setups, consuming 27 crushed stone per second in total (for ~30 cellulose net output). Assembling cellulose -> wood pellets -> wood bricks turns that into ~2.5 wood bricks per second at a fuel value of 25 MJ each. The farms in three of these consume a total of 11.16 MW, the liquifiers consume ~5.68 MW, and the assemblers consume ~1.67 (it's actually a little better than this because the liquifiers + assemblers spend some time idle, but I also didn't calculate the extra assemblers for brick assembly). At 50% fuel efficiency this gives 2.5*25*.5-(11.16+5.68+1.67) = 12.74 MW net electricity, so about 4.25 MW net electricity production for each individual setup.

Nice I want to try it out.

However it must be my first time to use algae.

You can also scale up your slag processing.
