The development of engineered silica particles by using low-cost renewable or waste
resources is a key example of sustainability. Rice husks have emerged as a renewable …

A new approach to the use of rice straw as a difficult-to-recycle agricultural waste was
proposed. Potassium aluminosilicate was obtained by spark plasma sintering as an effective …

A facile quantitative determination of the Si/Al ratio (SAR) in zeolite frameworks using IR
spectroscopy is reported. From the linear regression analysis, the SAR for the medium-to …

The present research investigates the feasibility of FeCl 2 as a novel activating agent to
prepare activated carbons from tomato stem (TS). The thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) of …

A ubiquitous phenomenon in zeolite synthesis is the generation of polymorphs leading to
either single or multi-phase products. The use of organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs) …

Rice husk is one of the most earth abundant, low-cost, and eco-friendly agricultural residues.
In this study, we successfully synthesized micro/mesoporous activated carbon from rice husk …

Zeolites with uniform micropore have been widely applied in the industrial processes, giving
great economic and social benefits. However, current synthesis of zeolites is still not …

The co-production of biochar and bioenergy using pyrolysis-combustion processes can
potentially minimize the emission problems associated with conventional methods of …

An investigation of nanosized potassium aluminosilicate F-type zeolite (KF, structure code
EDI) converted from rice husk ash (RHA) is reported. The crystallization process was studied …

We reported for the first time the use of bamboo leaf biomass (BLA) as a silica source for the
synthesis of aluminosilicate zeolite A (structure code LTA). The BLA with very high silica …
