Effect of age and height on the silica content in buluh semantan (Gigantochloa scortechinii) / Nor Asikir Mamat

The study of ash and silica content is important since it is known to cause blunting of saw tooth and problems during chemical recovery of black liquor in the manufacture of chemical pulps. Thus, knowledge on the ash and silica content of the pulping materials would enable a mill to take positive me...
