Focusing on the resource utilization of red mud and its application in road engineering, this book discusses in depth the engineering and environmental characteristics of red mud. The book describes in detail the red mud roadbed construction technology, including the modification and curing methods and mechanism research, as well as the compaction process, quality control methods and standards during construction. Readers will learn about the physical and chemical properties of red mud and how to improve its suitability as a road base material through modification. In addition, the book provides risk assessment methods for characteristic pollutants to help understand and control the possible environmental impacts of red mud roadbeds. The wealth of experimental data, graphs and example analyses make this book an important reference for professionals involved in red mud resource utilization research, environmental engineers and postgraduate students in related fields.The basis of English translation of this book, originally in Chinese, was facilitated by artificial intelligence. The content was later revised by the author for accuracy.
