    Abstract: Porous amorphous silica can be obtained from siliceous plant matter containing non-siliceous inorganic substances. The siliceous plant matter is soaked in an aqueous solution which includes a chelating agent. The chelating agent is present in an amount which helps to extract at least some of the non-siliceous inorganic matter. The aqueous solution is then separated from the siliceous plant matter. Beneficial properties are imparted to the siliceous plant matter by controlling the amount of at least one preselected non-siliceous inorganic substance in the siliceous plant matter. At the end of the process, the siliceous plant matter is heat treated in the presence of oxygen at a temperature to produce the resulting amorphous silica having the beneficial properties.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing spherical submicron particles of amorphous silicon dioxide, in which silicon dioxide and a reducing agent is injected into a reaction vessel of zirconium oxide in molten state, said zirconium oxide is serving as a heat reservoir, in which silicon dioxide reacts with the reducing agent producing a silicon-sub-oxide vapor, said silicon-sub-oxide vapor is oxidized into said spherical submicron silicon oxide particles.
