Characterization of Rice Straw Ash and Utilization in Glass Production
Abstract:
The recycling of rice straw fly ash (RSA) obtained from the biomass power plants has been studied. RSA was calcined at 400, 600, 800 and 1,000 °C for 3 h and investigated their compositions and structures by X-rays fluorescence spectrometer (XRF) and X-rays diffractometer (XRD) respectively. The results show that, the major compositions of RSA are SiO2 and CaO, MgO, K2O and P2O5. The XRD patterns exhibited the peak of sylvite potassium chloride phase (KCl) up to 600 °C. Since 800 °C tridymite phase SiO2 was obtained and the KCl phase was disappeared. The glasses from RSA (RSA-glass) were prepared by melt-quenched technique and investigated their optical and physical properties, compared with the glass prepared from high purity SiO2 (SiO2-glass) using the same glass formula and preparation conditions. The density and refractive index of the RSA-glass were higher than SiO2-glasses. Similar optical absorption spectra of both glasses were obtained. In addition the shoulder peak were appeared at 450 nm due to Fe3+ ion from contamination in RSA.
