Article Synopsis
- The disposal of red mud (RM) from the aluminum industry poses environmental risks due to its high alkalinity and potential to pollute natural resources.
- Recent strategies focus on repurposing RM as a supplementary material in construction (like cement and bricks) and as an efficient catalyst, addressing both waste management and potential cost reduction in various industries.
- The review highlights RM's properties, its environmental impacts, and its applications, while acknowledging challenges such as poor cementitious properties that affect the performance of RM-based composites; it also points towards future research needs for sustainable RM disposal solutions.
