Properties of silica from rice husk and rice husk ash and their utilization for zeolite y synthesis

Rice Husk Ash-Derived Silica Nanofluids: Synthesis and Stability Study

Nanofluids, colloidal suspensions consisting of base fluids and nanoparticles, are a new generation of engineering working fluids. Nanofluids have shown great potential in heat/mass transfer applications. However, their practical applications are limited by the high production cost and low stability. In this study, a low-cost agricultural waste, rice husk ash (RHA), was used as a silicon source...

Utilization of Rice Husk and Their Ash: A Review

Due to rapid growth in population and industrialization, some new technologies are made for waste utilization and cost reduction in industrial processing by using rice husk (lignocellulosic biomass) as a valued material. In this paper various industrial and domestic application of rice husk and rice husk ash are discussed. Rice husk act as adsorbent for removing heavy metals from wastewater. In...
