Micro Pollutants in Red Mud Waste of Aluminium Plant

摘要

The growth of the aluminium industry in India, the process details of an aluminium plant, and the genesis of red mud during the aluminium production have been described. Chemical analysis of a number of red mud samples collected at different points in the red mud ponds, at different periods, have been carried out, and the concentrations of the micro pollutants determined to assess their probable impacts on the soils and water of the adjoining areas.
