Improvement of iron removal from silica sand using
#0183;#32;The iron removal efficiency of a process can be calculated using the equation: (4) Iron removal efficiency (%) = 1amount of iron in leached solid samples amount of iron in original mineral #215; 100 The particle size and size distribution of the silica sand and the leached solid samples were determined by laser light scattering method (Mastersizer 2000, Malvern, UK), measurements were
