Effect of sintering temperature on phase-formation behavior and mechanical properties of silica ceramics prepared from rice husk ash
J.P. Nayak,Japes Bera +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, phase-formation behavior, densification characteristics, and mechanical strength of silica ceramics were investigated and correlated with microstructural features, showing the formation of cracks in the cracks when they contain cristobalite phases.

TL;DR: In this article, the engineering properties of lightweight geopolymer-based material produced from the ternary blend of red mud (RM) waste, rice husk ash (RHA) and diatomaceous earth (DE) are optimized with statistical multi-response surface method.
Comparative life cycle assessment of rice husk utilization in Thailand
Abstract: Thailand is one of the largest rice producing nations in the world. Moreover, there is a trend for Thai rice exports to increase. This could imply that if the trend continues, there will be an increased quantity of rice husk in the future. Rice husk is a

Manufacture of silicon tetrachloride from rice hulls
TL;DR: This article showed that rice hulls contain about 20% silica in very finely dispersed form, and that pyrolyzed hulls can be chlorinated at 1000°C to give a nearly quantitative yield of silicon tetrachloride free of most other inorganic chlorides.
