Adaptation of eco-friendly approach in the production of soluble pozzolanic material
Silica gel made of natural waste materials of sugarcane bagasse has initiated a new trend in pozzolanic area. The employment of eco-friendly approach by using low concentration acids and natural drying via solar heat-based equipment in the pre-treatment process were projected to minimize the energy...
