Nanosilica was synthesized via the hydrothermal technique, followed by the vacuum frying system at low temperature and pressure. Then, the achieved nanoparticles were used for removing of Crystal Violet dye (CV) from wastewater. The absorbent and absorption process were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF). | Synthesis of nanosilica from rice husk and optimization of the removal of crystal violet dye from aqueous solution
