Rice husk ash-geopolymer composite

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract This research aimed to enhance properties of fly ash based geopolymer through usage of three types of rice husk ash (RHA). The replacement in the content of 0%, 3%, 5% and 10% by weight was chosen. The RHA used in this study were obtained from (i) the rice drying-process (ii), (iii) in house by burning RH at 600°C and 700 °C ...

Fabrication, Characterization, and Antimicrobial Activity of PLA/Chitosan Composites Reinforced With Sugarcane Bagasse–Derived Fillers

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
Fiber treatment improved sugarcane bagasse by increasing cellulose content to 71.7% and crystallinity to 91.36%. Among composites, PLA–CS–UASCB showed the best overall performance, maintaining tensile strength and modulus close to pure PLA while delivering the highest antimicrobial activity, reducing E. coli by 20.28% and S. aureus by 28.33%.

Arsenic Uptake From Artisanal Gold Mining Wastewater Using Magnetized and Functionalized 2‐Mercaptobenzothiazole Nanosilica: Characterization, Taguchi Optimization, Statistical Analysis and Adsorbent Reusability

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
A local adsorbent, synthesized via magnetization and functionalization of nanosilica from rice husk, was applied to eliminate As5+ from gold mining wastewater sample. Adsorbent was characterized using BET, FTIR, SEM and XRD and was proved to be effective and suitable for As5+ removal from gold mining wastewater.

Application of Pseudomonas mosselii PR5 Enables Fertilizer Reduction in Rice While Maintaining Yield, Grain Quality, and Soil Nutrient Dynamics

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Overuse of agrochemicals negatively affects the health of soil and biodiversity and the quality of water. Pseudomonas mosselii PR5 seed priming and foliar application increase nutrient assimilation and pathogen suppression. PR5, when applied with reduced fertilizer rates, enhances rice growth, yield, grain protein, soil organic matter, economic returns,
