Abstract Red mud is the waste of bauxite refinement into alumina, feedstock for aluminium production 1 . With about 180 million tonnes produced per year , red has amassed to one largest environmentally hazardous products, with staggering amount 4 billion accumulated on a global scale Here we present how this can be turned valuable and sustainable ironmaking using fossil-free hydrogen-plasma-based reduction, thus mitigating part steel-related carbon dioxide emissions by making it available several hundred green steel. The process proceeds through rapid liquid-state chemical partitioning, as well density-driven viscosity-driven separation between metal oxides. We show underlying reactions, pH-neutralization processes phase transformations during surprisingly simple fast reduction method. approach establishes toxic-waste treatment from mitigate greenhouse gas steelmaking.

Utilizing the red mud sustainably is now a challenging issue. Red due to its wide production, presence of some radioactive elements, high alkalinity, and salinity, has dramatic potential contaminate soil groundwater. Notwithstanding drawbacks, consists several including Ca, Al, Ti, Si, Fe, in various mineral forms. In this study, stepwise leaching was applied as proper method separate purify main valuable elements using available affordable HCl. The pre-leaching step under optimized conditions HCl (0.2 M) at room temperature for 2 h removed 89% calcium content from mud. To selectively remove solid silica, residue treated with concentrated (3.0 M, L/S 20 mL/g) 95 °C, resulting dissolution iron aluminum up 90% efficiency. After precipitation Fe3+ Al3+, they were characterized FT-IR, BET, EDS, XRD, SEM TEM monographs, confirming formation nanosized hematite (α-Fe2O3) mesoporous gamma alumina (γ-Al2O3). Consequently, inexpensive converted into highly nano-sized metal oxides simple, sustainable techniques cheap reagents. Moreover, technique generates lowest amounts waste during process all reagents can be recycled further uses, making utilization.
