Aluminum dross waste creates environmental burden for manufacturers and hence the
need for its re-use. This experimental research assessed the engineering properties of modified
asphalt using aluminium dross as a filer material. The aluminium dross used was obtained from
a steel manufacturing industry. Elemental composition of the oxides was done using XRF
equipment. Sieve analysis of the aluminium dross and the coarse aggregate was also assessed.
Additionally, ductility, penetration, ball and ring and Marshall stability test were used in
achieving the aim of this research. The outcome of the research revealed that 10-20% addition
of the aluminium dross improved the stability of the modified asphalt. Physical observation
revealed that the utilization of the waste stiffened the modified asphalt. The result showed that
the addition of aluminium dross reduced the VMA. This will also increase the asphalt mix
flushing. Additionally, at higher percentage addition of the waste the stiffness of the asphalt mix
increases especially at a higher temperature. The use of this material will help in the reduction
of solid waste and reduce the cost of management while reducing the cost of pavement
construction in track with the trash to treasure drive
