AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Pavement is the backbone of an effective and efficient transportation system. Data on the use of aluminium dross as filler material in the modification of asphalt for a sustainable pavement was espoused. Aluminium dross which is a solid waste from steel production industry was utilized. Data on the engineering and stability properties of the material in enhancing the strength of the asphalt mix design was espoused. This was achieved by adding the solid waste at 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10% and 12.5% of aluminium dross to the asphalt concrete sample. Marshall Test was used to determine the stability of aluminium dross in flexible pavement and this was used for the selection of asphalt binder content with a suitable density which satisfies minimum stability and range of flow values using AASHTO specification. The data obtained will be of help to researchers, engineers, road construction workers and environmentalist on the use of this solid waste in the construction of sustainable long-lasting roads for national growth and solid waste reduction.

This study aims to utilize secondary aluminum dross waste to synthesize Fe-Al layered double hydroxide (Fe-Al LDH) for efficient adsorption of arsenic from drinking water. The synthesis process was based on a multi-step hydrometallurgical approach, in which the aluminum content in the waste was first converted to sodium aluminate. This was followed by the transformation into Fe-Al LDH through a series of processes, including gelation, sol formation, simultaneous precipitation, and aging.

This study demonstrates the potential of secondary aluminum dross (SAD) to enhance the vitrifying hazardous waste incineration fly ash (FA) and bottom slag (BS). Based on the CaO-SiO-AlO ternary phase diagram, a liquid phase can be achieved at relatively low temperatures by carefully adjusting the AlO content, particularly when the CaO to SiO ratio is around 0.66.

Aluminum is one of the most in-demand nonferrous metals in the world. The secondary aluminum dross (SAD) produced during aluminum smelting is a type of solid waste that urgently requires disposal. SAD, municipal solid waste incineration fly ash, and bottom slag were used as raw materials to prepare porous ceramsite in a laboratory in this study.

Ammonia (NH), as a hydrogen energy carrier, is advantageous for mitigating energy consumption and carbon emission; however, the current Haber process for NH synthesis requires harsh conditions with a low conversion rate. To address these challenges, chemical looping ammonia synthesis (CLAS) has been proposed for utilizing aluminum dross (AD)-a hazardous waste containing sufficient active Al and N as a nitrogen carrier-involving carbon conversion without emissions. AD samples were employed to investigate the performance of CLAS, and the evolution of nitrogen carrier.

Recycling and reusing industrial waste and by-products are topics of great importance across all industries, but they hold particular significance in the metal industry. Aluminum, the most widely used non-ferrous metal globally, generates considerable waste during production, including dross, salt slag, spent carbon cathode and bauxite residue. Extensive research has been conducted to recycle and re-extract the remaining aluminum from these wastes.
