Abstract
The article provides an overview of various data on red mud as a waste from the processing of bauxite into aluminum. An analysis was made of the prevalence of red mud in the world, the features of its storage and disposal, as well as the possibility of its processing into products and intermediates necessary for the production of various materials. The features of the chemical composition of red mud are given depending on its place of production and storage. An analysis of world practice on the implementation of the possibility of processing red mud using various techniques is presented. Analysis of literature data has shown that there are a large number of scientific groups involved in the processing of red mud into products such as oxides of various metals, the extraction of rare earth and radioactive metals from it, as well as the production of other products that can be used in construction, wastewater treatment, and agriculture etc. In the article, one of the most significant sections is the protection of the environment from the harmful effects of red mud. The achievements of world scientists to minimize such impacts are presented and measures that need to be taken in the future to protect the environment are considered. In addition, one of the important sections of this article is the section devoted to the processing of red mud into catalysts for various reactions, consisting in most cases of transition metals supported on aluminum oxide. This review article will allow us to systematize existing scientific developments on the processing of red mud and can be used as a basis for further study of the possibility of obtaining industrially important products from metallurgical industry waste.
