Effect of leaching with 5–6 N H2SO4 on thermal kinetics of rice husk during pure silica recovery

Rice husk is a potential source for renewable energy and silica. To extract the maximum amount of silica, usually the rice husk is treated with strong acids that burn the organic part leaving behind a black residue. In this research, sulfuric acid is used as an oxidizing agent. Efforts are focused t...
