Water Filtration by Ceramic Water Filter Added With Silica-based Bambusoideae via Slip Casting Method

In this study, the silica is extracted from the bamboo through several processes which include burning and leaching. The morphology of the silica is examined using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) that shows the silica is in amorphous state and contain many pores. Other than that, the purity of th...
