Influence of rheology on the hydraulic conveying of red mud …

The abrasivity of red mud slurries and the abrasive response of the pipe material are found as a function of red mud concentration. A favorable economic flow condition is achieved, when 60–65 wt.% of red mud slurry is transported at a velocity of 1.5 m/s in a pipe of diameter 0.3 m.
