Abstract

Worldwide bauxite residue disposal areas contain an estimated 2.7 billion tonnes of residue, increasing by approximately 120 million tonnes per annum. Presently, it is stored on land or in ocean near alumina refineries. However, its high alkalinity is a potential pollution to water; land and air of close proximity .meanwhile high cost are associated with a large area of land needed for storage of residue. In this paper focuses on process of waste generation, its characteristics, conventional disposal method & bauxite residue utilization in building material glass ceramics, concrete, bricks, phosphate removal etc.
