Rice Husk Ash

Use of 5% Rice Husk Ash:

Toothpaste
• In Kerala, India, charcoal from Rice husks (Umikari in Malayalam) were universally used for over centuries in cleaning teeth, before toothpaste replaced it.

Brewing
• Rice hulls can be used in brewing beer to increase the lautering ability of a mash.

Fertilizer and substrate
• Rice hulls can be composted, but their high lignin content can make this a slow process. Sometimes earthworms are used to accelerate the process. Using vermicomposting techniques, hulls can be converted to fertilizer in about four months.
• Rice hulls that are parboiled (PBH) are used as a substrate or medium for gardening, including certain hydrocultures. The hulls decay over time. Rice hulls allow drainage, and retain less water than growstones. It has been shown that rice hulls do not affect plant growth regulation.

Juice extraction
• Rice hulls are used as a “press aid” to improve extraction efficiency of apple pressing.

Pet food fiber
• Rice hulls are an inexpensive byproduct of human food processing, serving as a source of fiber that is considered a filler ingredient in pet foods.

Pillow stuffing
• Rice hulls are used as pillow stuffing. The pillows are loosely stuffed and considered therapeutic as they retain the shape of the head.

Insulating material
• Rice hulls themselves are a class A thermal insulating material because they are difficult to burn and less likely to allow moisture to propagate mold or fungi.It is also used as roofing after mixing it with mud and water.

Particle boards and cardboard
• Rice hulls are also used to make particle boards and cardboard. The silica in rice husk make the particle boards less attractive to termites.
