PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Rice husk is an agricultural residue easily available in rice producing countries. India is a major rice producing country, and the husk generated during milling is mostly used as a fuel in the boiler for processing paddy, producing energy through direct combustions or by gasification. The rice husk contains about 75% organic volatile matter & balance of 25% is converted into ash during the firing process is known as rice husk ash (RHA).
Precipitated silica (also called particulated silica) is composed of aggregates of ultimate linked in massive gel network during the preparation process. The ash produced after the husk has been burned is high in silica. R.H.A. can be used in variety of application like “Green concrete, insulator, insecticides and bio fertilizer etc.
Precipitated silica is used as filler for paper and rubber as a carrier and diluents for agricultural chemicals, as an ant caking agent, to control viscosity thickness and as a cleansing agent in tooth paste and in cosmetics. The distinguish feature of the growth of precipitated silica industry in India is that it has classifiably flourished in small scale sector. Readily available raw materials, low capital investment high rate of return offer a distinct advantage to new entrepreneurs to venture into this project.
