Evaluation of red mud as filler in Brazilian dense graded asphalt mixtures

Red mud is a waste resulting from the bauxite refining to produce aluminum. A large amount of red mud generated and inadequately disposed of in the environment, evidence the immediate necessity in developing methods to reuse this hazardous waste in the productive chain. In this scenario, a viable and environmental alternative is the red mud used as filler in asphalt mixtures production. This work aims to evaluate the potential application of red...
