Characterization and Iron Removal Enhancement of El-Zaafarana White Sand

The removal of iron from silica sand with oxalic acid has been studied by several authors [22, 33, 34]. Iron removal takes place in a reducing mechanism with oxalate being oxidized to form carbonic acid or carbon dioxide and iron oxide is reduced to form Fe(II)–oxalate (Eqs. (5–7)).

Everything You Need to Know About Sandstone

Sandstone Basics. Sandstone is a type of rock made from sediment — a sedimentary rock. The sediment particles are clasts, or pieces, of minerals and fragments of rock, thus sandstone is a clastic sedimentary rock. It is composed mostly of sand particles, which are of medium size; therefore, sandstone is a medium-grained clastic …

Frequently Asked Questions about Silica and Hydraulic Fracturing

Silica sand is frequently used as a proppant during hydraulic fracturing. Other proppants can include sintered bauxite, ceramics, and resin-coated sand. Using alternative proppants is one way to reduce silica exposures. However, before using other proppants, it is important to evaluate the health hazards associated with them.
