Rice husk is one of the representative non-eatable biomasses, and contains 70～75 mass% organics such as cellulose and hemi-cellulose and 15～20 mass% silica (SiO₂) elements. From a viewpoint of the wide use of the biomass energy, its cost reduction is strongly required by selecting suitable raw materials as biomass fuels and optimizing the operating conditions. In the present study, rice husk was selected as input raw fuel materials because after extracting the above organics as the biomass energy from rice husks, their residues consisting of high-purity amorphous silica would be an industrial resource with added value, and resulted in the total cost reduction of the biomass energy. For high-purification of silica materials originating in rice husk residues, the citric acid leaching treatment and the following water rinsing process of rice husks were used to remove metallic impurities such as Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu, etc. In this study, the optimization of the operating parameters such as the concentration and temperature of citric acid solution, the stirring time in the acid leaching and water rinsing treatment, and combustion temperature were examined out for the removal of metallic impurities and the hydrolysis reaction of the polysaccharides. XRF and ICP analysis were used to quantitatively evaluate the residual content of impurities and carbon elements. GC-MS and FT-IR analysis of rice husks after leaching were conducted to examine their hydrolysis behavior.
