Soil salinity is considered one of the most detrimental environmental problems affecting the
productivity of many agricultural crops, with negative effects on seed germination, plant …

Artifacts are objects> 2 mm, whereas microartifacts are 0.25–2.0 mm, in size that were
produced, modified, or transported from their source, by human activity. Artifacts are typically …

Recovery of microbial functions is one of the critical processes in the nutrient cycling of
bauxite residue for improving revegetation. Straw is considered to be effective to increase …

Bauxite residue is a highly saline-sodic tailings material formed as a by-product of the Bayer
process for alumina production. In situ remediation of bauxite residue has the potential to …

Technosols formed from mineral processing wastes such as tailings are of growing
importance worldwide due to the increasing demand for mineral and energy resources. The …

Amelioration and management of large volumes of tailings resulting from alumina refining is
a major challenge owing to the high alkalinity and salinity of residues. Blended byproduct …

Purpose Bauxite residue is an alkaline, saline-sodic byproduct of the Bayer process for
alumina production. In situ remediation of bauxite residue is a cost-effective management …

Bauxite residues (BR), commonly named red muds, are the saline-sodic waste produced
during the extraction of alumina from bauxite. In this study, four kinds of BR were mixed at …

The electrical conductivity (EC) of soil is generally measured after soil extraction, so this
method cannot represent the in situ EC of soil (eg, EC of soils with different moisture …

Purpose Closure of tailings facilities typically involves either a 'cap and store'or 'direct
revegetation'approach. Both have been used in the management of bauxite residue …
