The Effect of Burning Temperature and Solution Concentration on the Characteristic of Silica Gel Extracted from Rice Husk Ash

Combustion of rice husk to generate energy results in the waste product called rice husk ash (RHA). RHA is potential bio-fertilizer for plant as it contain over 90% of silica and silica is proved that it can provide substantial benefits to many crops. Silica are being extracted from RHA in the fo...
