Extraction and Characterization of Biogenic Silica Obtained from Selected Agro-Waste in Africa

Extraction and Characterization of Biogenic Silica Obtained from Selected Agro-Waste in Africa

Increased amounts of available biomass residues from agricultural food production are present widely around the globe. These biomass residues can find essential applications as bioenergy feedstock and precursors to produce value-added materials. This study assessed the production of biogenic silica...
