Determination of Swelling Behaviour of Black Cotton Soil with Lime and Red Mud (Bauxite Residue)
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Red mud is a byproduct produced in the process of extraction of alumina from bauxite. The process is called Bayers Process. It is insoluble product and is generated after bauxite digestion with sodium hydroxide at elevated temperature and pressure. The sample of red mud collected from Hindalco (Hindustan aluminium company ) Sonbhadra Renukoot (U.P.) In this study samples were prepared by mixing different percentage of Red Mud with different percentage of soil and lime, with an aim to compare strength gain with lime, Red Mud mixed with highly compressible soil and may find potential applications in road and embankment constructions with due regards for its strength characteristics, durability, and environmental safety.
