Highly dispersed silicas have been obtained at a semi-technical scale by precipitation from sodium metasilicate solutions using appropriately diluted solutions of ammonium hydrogencarbonate or ammonium chloride. The difference, as compared to the generally applied technology of silica precipitation using acids or their anhydrides, has been the involvement of …
2.1. Stöber method. The Stöber method, developed in 1968, continues to be a widely employed method for synthesizing silica nanoparticles [1–6].Briefly, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) or other silicates are combined in a mixture of water, alcohol, and ammonia and agitated to form particles whose size depends on the concentration of the solvents and silicate additives.
2.2. Solubility of amorphous silica At the reservoir, the SiO 2 content is in a equilibrium state with quartz (Brown, 2011). However, precipitated silica at the surface is normally in an amorphous silica form. The solubility of amorphous silica with temperature in pure water has been measured (Fournier and Rowe, 1966, op. cit. Brown 2011).
At the first stage of the study, the spherical silica was precipitated and subjected to dispersion analysis. The particle size distribution (Fig. 2a) revealed a single band corresponding to the particles of diameters covering the range 164–295 nm, with the maximum volume of 37.2 % corresponding to the particles of 220 nm in diameter.The SEM of the silica (Fig. 3a) confirmed …
The main objective of the present work was the evaluation of commercial ZSM-5 catalysts (diluted with a silica–alumina matrix) in the in situ upgrading of lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis vapours and the validation of their bench-scale reactor performance in a pilot scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) pyrolysis reactor. The ZSM-5 based catalysts were tested both fresh and at the ...
Using the data produced during the bench-scale test program, equipment was setup and solutions were prepared to operate a continuous counter-current process for the extraction of iron and titanium. Leaching for the small pilot-scale testing was shown to be less efficient at 81% and 79% for iron and titanium, respectively.
The objective of this study is to develop a process consisting of ultrasonic-assisted extraction, silica-gel column chromatography and crystallization to optimize pilot scale recovery of schisandrin B (SAB) from Schisandra chinensis seeds. The effects of five independent variables including liquid-s …
Pilot‐scale studies are applied to confirm the reproducibility of laboratory‐scale examinations and yield versus input for larger resource amounts, and economic efficiency. Few reports, however, provide estimates of the scaled up pretreatment processing efficiency of alkaline pulping rice straw for bioethanol production.
For each ton of precipitated silica produced, 0.75 tons of Na 2 SO 4 are obtained as a by-product and this generates a discharge of 40 m 3 (30 g/l). European production of precipitated silica in 2018 reached 720 000 tons (2 500 000 tons worldwide) with …
The results of the papermaking tests performed in paper sheets produced in a pilot paper machine using Eucalyptus globulus bleached kraft fibres and a new filler of silica-modified PCC obtained by the sol-gel method are presented. This new filler proved already to be advantageous at lab scale and its performance is now evaluated at a pilot scale. Its application …

Paper sheets production (pilot scale) The pilot paper machine (PM) comprises three stock chests, a stock pump, a wire, a couch roll, a press section and 5 dry cylinders operating at about 105ºC (oil heaters), in addition to the vacuum pumps and auxiliary equipment and instrumentation (Fig 1). A continuous web of 0.5 m
recently been solved at the laboratory bench scale (Schulze et al. 2016), and are now being considered at the pilot scale. Other issues with the processing of organosolv spent liquors are related to the particle size of the precipitated lignin, its filterability and with the precipitation of lignin during cooling and storage of the spent liquors.
Silica gel has an affinity to bind with dissolved silica in geothermal brine that therefore reduces the likelihood of silica to form scale on the pipeline surfaces. In the present work, brine was taken from geothermal well Unit 3A–3B at the Dieng geothermal power plant with an initial silica monomer concentration of approximately 420 ppm.
This precipitated CaCO 3 will become the core of silica deposition; which, in turn, will promote the precipitation of silica scale (Y e 1994). Under the experimental conditions, due to the differences in the chemical properties, hardness, alkalinity and SiO 2 contents of the water samples, the chemical compositions, morphologies and contents of ...
