Although SiO₂ is produced mostly from mineral sources like quartz, it has recently been obtained from lignocellulosic natural resources, such as rice husk (hull). Several methods for extracting silica (SiO₂) from rice husks are available in the literature. These methods are based essentially on heat treatment and/or extraction. This study represents a thorough account of heat treatment and acid-base extraction, to obtain silica from rice husks with a high purity and to eliminate other inorganic impurities. Rice husks, considered to be a potential silica source, were pretreated with various acids, base and water and then thermally degraded in a fixed bed reactor under an inert gas atmosphere (N₂). The materials produced in these conditions were characterized by Brauner-Emmett-Teller analysis, for surface area and pore volume, by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, and scanning electron microscopy.

In this study, the phosphors (Sr1−x , Znx)0.9(Al2−y , By)O4 doped 10 mol % Eu2+, were prepared by combustion method as the fluorescent material for white light emitting diodes (WLEDs), performing as a light source. The luminescent properties were investigated by changing the combustion temperature, the boron concentration, and the ratio of Sr to Zn. The luminescence, crystallinity and particle morphology were investigated by using a luminescence spectrometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively. The highest intensity of Sr0.9(Al2−y , By)O4: Eu0.12+ phosphor was achieved when the combustion temperature was 600° and the concentration of B3+ was 8 mol % of the aluminate. A new blue emission was observed when the high Zn concentration (x ⩾ 0.8), and this blue emission disappeared with the Zn concentration became lower than 0.8. The combustion method synthesized phosphor (Sr0.6, Zn0.4)0.9(Al1.92, B0.08)O4: Eu0.12+ showed 3.3 times improved emission intensity compared with that of the Sr0.9(Al1.92, B0.08)O4:Eu0.12+ phosphor under λex = 390 nm.
