Environmental Potentials of Asphalt Mixtures Fabricated with Red Mud and Fly Ash

Several studies evaluated the feasibility of using residues to compose asphalt mixtures. However, the demand for treatments are often neglected in determining the environmental impacts. This study aims to elucidate the decision-making process over the application of residues (e.g., red mud and fly a...
