Abstract

The Bayer Process for the production of alumina from Bauxite ore is characterized by low energy efficiency which results in the production of significant amounts of dust-like, high alkalinity bauxite residues known as Red Mud. Red mud is produced almost at an equivalent mass ratio to metallurgical alumina and is biased into sealed or unsealed artificial confinements, leading to crucial environmental issues. It contains oxides of iron, titanium, aluminum, and silica along with some other minor constituents. Presence of Alumina and Iron oxide in red mud compensates the absence of the same components in limestone which is the essential raw material for cement production. Based on economics as well as environmental related issues, massive efforts have been directed worldwide towards red mud disposal issues. The project work spotlights the suitability of red mud obtained for construction. Five test groups were constituted with the replacement percentages 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% of red mud with cement in each series. To achieve Pozzolan’s property of Red Mud. This paper points out another encouraging guidance for the proper utilization of red mud.
