Iron Removal Process for HighPurity Silica Sands
Sep 28, 1999#0183;#32;In this article, a leaching study, carried out on a quartz sample to obtain highpurity silica sands, has been presented. A leaching process by using oxalic acid to remove low iron content from the ore under study and to obtain a material suitable for fiber optic production has been evaluated. A characterization study has been carried out to establish the location of the iron impurities on the
