Abstract

The paper presents a comparative characterization of samples of amorphous silica and sodium aluminosilicate obtained from rice production waste (husks and straw) and the above-ground part of horsetails (field and wintering), with a silicon dioxide reagent and commercial samples of silicon-containing enterosorbents according to a number of physico-chemical parameters. The phase state of the samples (amorphous and amorphous-crystalline) was established, their IR absorption spectra in the region of 400–4000 cm–1 were described, the values of bulk density (from 28 to 631 kg/m3), the pH of the aqueous extract (from 5.6 to 9.6) and the content of water-soluble substances (from 7 to 35 %) were found. The adsorption activity of all the studied samples was determined by methylene blue in a neutral medium (3–264 mg/g), and for enterosorbents and sodium aluminosilicate from rice straw – in the stomach (pH 2) and duodenum (pH 7.5). It is shown that the adsorption activity of silicon-containing sorbents from plant raw materials is comparable to commercial enterosorbents.
