 He invented a technology for producing biochar -
silicon dioxide - from rice husks.

Silicon dioxide is also used for the production of glass,

ceramics, abrasives, concrete products, the manufacture of
toothpaste, cosmetics, optical fiber and other products.

What did he
Nurbol Appasov's invention was caused by the fact that
after harvesting and processing grain, thousands of tons
of rice husks were simply burned. The inventor has

invent? found an effective way of organic processing of this

"garbage".

 He invented a technology for producing biochar -
silicon dioxide - from rice husks.

“Usually silicon dioxide is obtained from sand, but

I have developed a technology for its production
from rice waste. You need to grind rice husks, dry
them, then process them with hydrochloric acid
under microwave irradiation, thereby accelerating

What did he
the process of extracting inorganic substances.
Then burn rice husks, gradually increasing the
temperature in the oven from 300 to 800 degrees

invent? Celsius. The result is pure, 100 percent silicon

dioxide”.

 As a result, now the region is looking for other options for the
use of rice husks, of which there are a lot. By doing this, he
proved that industrial waste can be recycled into a utility model
without harm to the environment.
