Precipitated silica was prepared by acid and alkali dissociation respectively from oil shale ash.Experiment condi
tion of acid dissociation was 8.50 mol/L H2SO4,and dissociated 4h at 90℃,and leaching rate was amount to 39.6%.E
xperiment condition of alkali dissociation was 3.30 mol/L NaOH,and dissociated 4h at 100℃,and leaching rate was a
mount to 75.8%.The SiO2 purity in the product of precipitated silica prepared with alkali dissociation was 91.8% by X-
ray fluorescence analysis.The chemical structure of precipitated silica was hydration silicon oxide through FT-IR anal
ysis.The grain diameter of precipitated silica with amorphous micrograph determined by XRD and SEM was less than
50nm.The specific surface area of precipitated silica was 114m2/g,pH was 5.5～6.0,heating loss was 5.82 %,loss on i
gnition at 1000℃ was 6.16%.The production accorded with the demand of HG/T 3061-1999.

In this paper,high-alumina fly ash from a thermal-electric plant of Shaanxi Province was used as raw material,a
nd was treated with alkali to prepare desilicated solution,which was then carbonated to prepare precipitated silica.Dur
ing orthogonal experiments and single-factor experiments,the optimal carbonation conditions were determined as foll
ows,under 100 r·min-1 speed stirring,500 ml·min-1 CO2 flow rate,sodium metasilicate concentration 17.8°Bé,and at r
eaction temperature around 85℃,reaction time around 2.5 h.The white carbon black product(BTH-01)was prepared fr
om silica gel through drying at 105℃ overnight.The product(BTH-01)satisfied the type A standard of white carbon bla
ck GB10517—89.The carbonation reaction process was analyzed.Nuclear magnetic resonance measurement metho
d was used to trace the processing path of silica gel,which could better describe the Si—O conjugation during differen
t times in carbonation.The technology provides some guidance to analyzing the structure of white carbon black.

 Abstract: The silica extraction from palm oil mill fly ash (POMFA) using sodium
hydroxide as one of viable processes for obtaining silica from agricultural
waste was investigated. The effects of extraction time and temperature were
closely examined to study the kinetics of the process. The fixed variables used
in the present work were mass of POMFA 468.2 gram; the POMFA mass to
NaOH volume ratio 0.2341 g/cm³; the concentration of NaOH 1.4 N and the
stirring speed of 1065 RPM. The levels of temperature employed were 348 K,
358 K, 368 K and 378 K for different time durations up to 60 min. The
mechanical fragmentation process was applied to obtain precipitated silica
from the extracted silica. The precipitation conditions were: stirring speed of
1160 RPM, pH of 8.75, temperature of 303 K and precipitation time of 100
min. The shrinking core model (SCM) with intra-particle diffusion controlled
mechanism and the Jander equation can satisfactorily represent the extraction
process. The activation energy for silica extraction was 58.20 kJ/mol for the
SCM with intra-particle diffusion and 62.22 kJ/mol for the Jander equation
respectively. The precipitated silica agglomerate obtained at the time of 100
min has the median-weighed volume particle size distribution of 114.07 µm.
The chemical composition and physical characteristic of precipitated silica
which were analyzed with LPSA, XRF, XRD, FTIR and SEM are similar to the
precipitated silica from the references.
