Eco-friendly strategy for preparation of high-purity silica …
Arslan Volkan studied iron removal from silica sand using ultrasound-assisted mixed acid leaching technology and consequently obtained high-purity silica with 99.907% of SiO 2 content (Arslan, 2021). Buttress et al. produced high-purity silica via microfluidic-inclusion fracture using microwave pre-treatment ( Buttress et al., 2019 ).
