Valorization of agro-industrial waste through the extraction of silica for use in catalytic applications involved in CO2 capture

The goal of this research was to develop advanced silica materials from rice husk ash. A renewable and abundant agro-industrial waste that causes problems of accumulation and final disposal in the environment. Using extraction and synthesis methods, nanometric silica was produced. This silica was then used as a support material for nickel-based catalysts applied in CO2 hydrogenation reactions.This silica was then used as a support material for the development of nickel-based catalysts applied in CO2 hydrogenation reactions.
