−− The objective of this work was to synthesize zeolitic products using rice husk ash (RHA) as silicon source. For the synthesis, two mineralizing agents: NaOH and KOH were tested. Chemical composition of the synthesized samples as well as their cation exchange capacity (CEC) were determined. The samples were also characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). ...

Rice Husk Ash (RHA) of three different particle size ranges (50 – 75 μm), (75 – 100μm) and (100 – 150μm) in 3, 6, 9 and 12 % by weight was reinforced with the aluminium alloy using stir cast route. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the fabricated composites were analyzed. The results reveal that the tensile strength, compressive strength and hardness of the aluminum alloy composit...

In this present study, A356.2 Al/Rice hush ash (RHA) metal matrix composites (MMCs) were fabricated by vortex method. Different weight fractions of reinforcement were used to fabricate the composites. Scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive Xray analyzer is used for micro structural characterization. The properties like density, hardness, and ultimate tensile strength were ...

In this study, effect of biomass share on co-combustion of coal and biomass in a circulating fluidized bed is investigated by previously developed model. SO2 and NOx emission predictions of the model are compared with test results obtained from the laboratory-scale 30 kW (thermal) atmospheric test unit of 0.86 m i.d. and 7 m tall riser data published in the literature. Simulation results show t...

From April to July 2019, an experiment was conducted in Khumaltar, Lalitpur (27°39.312′N, 85° 19.586′E, and 1322 m above sea level) assess the effectiveness of plant materials on maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motsch.) control under laboratory conditions (maintained room temperature 28.5 ± 2°C, relative humidity 72 5%) treatments were Acorus calamus (rhizome powder) @ 5 g·kg−1, Melia azadirac...

Mucilage of Plantago ovata husk has various characteristics like binding, gelling, granulating, film former, disintegrating, suspending, and sustaining properties and could be utilized for the preparation of pharmaceutical dosage forms like tablets, suspensions, gel and for sustained drug release systems. The present paper deals with the spectrophotometric estimation of total polysaccharide con...

Nowadays, consumers are paying more and attention to healthy eating, unfortunately, insulin resistance type 2 diabetes affecting many people. In general, people the consumption of fibre-rich foods. our study, we developed high-fibre ready-to-bake flour mixture blends using purple wheat (white wholemeal). For fibre fortification, inulin, chia seed psyllium husk were used. After determining basic...

This study aims to determine the effect of pre-emergence application herbicide metsulfuron methyl on soil mixed with rice husk biochar germination weeds. used a factorial completely randomized design (CRD) two levels (0 gr/ha and 300 gr/ha) four (0%, 5%, 10%, 15% total weight planting medium). The parameters observed were number weeds, wet dry results showed that interaction had no significant ...
