How much Red Mud are we talking about?
- Nalco has 500 acre pond and has 50 Million tonnes of Red Mud.
- Almost 50 % contains FE2O3.
- Every hour 200 tonnes is produced therefore in one year 17,52,000 tonnes is produced.
- We have designed a process where 60% can be recovered out of this 50 %. Therefore 25 tones per hour can be recovered.
