Recovery of Highly Dispersed Silica from Rice Husk Ash
Brisil has developed a technology which uses rice husk ash, a
waste, to produce highly dispersible silica. This silica is used
in tyres to reduce friction and improve the energy efficiency/
performance of vehicles.
Funding agency: Ministry of Micro, Small Medium Enterprises (MSME), Govt of India
Benefits: Brisil has developed a technology which uses rice husk ash, a
waste, to produce highly dispersible silica. The technology uses the ash to produce advanced silica. The process is 20% more economical and 15% more energy e cient than conventional silica
production technologies.
