red mud (rm), a waste tailing from alumina production, (as an important environmental problem), can be used as a strong absorbent pollutant. in this study, the modified red mud (mrm) and pillared clay (pilc) were used for the removal of arsenate from water. the modified red mud (mrm) and pilc complex were characterized using xrd, sem and xrf microanalysis. the adsorption of arsenate on modified...

Contamination of water resources with petroleum products is a serious environmental problem. The current study was carried out to investigate the effect of using raw and heat activated red mud (RM) as adsorbent to remove insoluble fraction of gasoline from aqueous solution. Some parameters such as pH, contact time, adsorbent dose and initial concentration were optimized in adsorption process to...

backgroud and purpose: dye is one of the problems of industrial effluent such as textile industries. the dyes can be removed by various methods. therefore, the aim of this study was the evaluation of adsorption rate of reactive red 198 from aqueous solution by activated red mud. materials and methods: this research was a lab study. activated red mud was used as an adsorbent to remove reactive r...

Red mud, one of the mostly produced industrial wastes, was converted into a catalyst with exceptionally high and stable performance for hydrogen production from ammonia. Results showed that iron species produced after reduction of the HCl digested red mud were converted into ε-Fe2N during the induction period of ammonia decomposition reaction at 700 °C. The catalytic performance measurements in...

Results are presented from X-ray absorption spectroscopy based analysis of As, Cr, and V speciation within samples of bauxite ore processing residue (red mud) collected from the spill site at Ajka, Western Hungary. Cr K-edge XANES analysis found that Cr is present as Cr(3+) substituted into hematite, consistent with TEM analysis. V K-edge XANES spectra have E(1/2) position and pre-edge features...

Due to its alkalinity, red mud produced by the Bayer process may affect both the environment and human health. For this reason, its further utilization instead of disposal is of great importance. Numerous methods have already been studied for hydrometallurgical treatment of red mud, especially for the recovery of various metallic components such as iron, aluminum, titanium or rare earth element...

Red dish mud-rich sed i ments are com mon in sev eral karst ar eas, in the form of red sur face soils and clastic cave in fill ings. The or i gin and sig nif i cance of red sur face soils have been much de bated over re cent years, while clastic mud-rich sed i ments in cave en vi ron ments have re ceived less at ten tion from geoscientists. The ge netic re la tion ship be tween these two ma te ...

A manned submersible was used in a fjord in southeastern Alaska to study the distributional patterns of the red king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus) and the Tanner crab (Chionoecetes bairdi) in summer. The cove was divided into three zones: inner, middle, and outer. Six types of habitats, including sand-mud, rock, shell, debris, rock wall, and algae, were identified from video tapes. A relati...
