Abstract
Preciptated solid materials (PSM) from waste black liquor (WBL), at pH 8·5–9·0, produced from cooking of rice straw in paper mill factories were thermally treated. The cooking process led to decrease in organic material and partial substitution in silica structure. During this cooking process, three probable stages of mass loss comprise removal of moisture, volatile release, and combustion.
The chemical analysis depicts the cooking effect on leaching either the high percentage elements (Ca, Na, and K) or some metallic cations (Mn, Cd, Zn and Cu) in the parent rice straw. Silica hydrate, amorphous silica and crystalline silica were obtained at <600°C, 600–700°C and at>800°C, respectively. The infrared spectra show gradual removal of the hydrocarbon bond (C–H), molecular H2O, and sianol group (Si-OH) with temperature. TG, DTA, XRD and SEM were used in this study.
