Reduction of the high alkalinity of bauxite residue is a key problem to solve to make it suitable for plant growth and comprehensive utilization.In this study,phosphogypsum,a waste product from the phosphate fertilizer industry,was used to drive the alkaline transformation of the bauxite residue.Under optimal water washing conditions (liquid/solid ratio of 2 mL/g,30℃,24 hr),the impact of quantity added,reaction time and reaction mechanism during phosphogypsum application were investigated.Phosphogypsum addition effectively lowered pH levels and reduced the soluble alkalinity by 92.2％.It was found that the concentration of soluble Na and Ca ions in the supematant increased gradually,whilst the exchangeable Na+ and Ca2+ in solid phase changed 112 mg/kg and 259 mg/kg,respectively.Ca2+ became the dominant element in the solid phase (phosphogypsum addition of 2％,liquid/solid ratio of 2 mL/g,30℃,12 hr).X-ray diffraction data indicated that cancrinite and hydrogamet were the primary alkaline minerals.SEM images suggested that phosphogypsum could promote the formation of stable macroaggregates,whilst the content of Ca2+ increased from 5.6％ to 18.2％ and Na reduced from 6.8％ to 2.4％.Treatment with phosphogy-psum could significantly promote the transformation of alkalinity cations by neutralization,precipitation and replacement reactions.This research provided a feasible method to promote soil formation of bauxite residue by phosphogypsum amendment.
