ANALYSIS ON UTILIZATION OF CEMENT KILN DUST STABILIZED RED MUD FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION

The cost of red mud disposal is expensive, accounting for about 2% of the alumina price. Over the years, extensive work has been done by researchers worldwide to develop various economic ways for the utilization of red mud. The various applications that have been investigated include. In the experimental work the Red mud is stabilized with different percentage (i.e. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12%) of Cement Kiln Dust and Unconfined Compressive strength, Compaction Strength at Addition of higher percentage of CKD has shown higher values up to 8% addition further addition of CKD does not play any vital role in increasing the strength of Red mud CKD mix.
