Morphology-controlled silicon oxide particles produced by red wiggler worms

The preparation of silica particles by vermicomposting has gained increasing attention for use as an inventive alternative to conventional methods. The silica oxides obtained can be used in a number of technological applications. As of yet, these particles cannot be used efficiently because of the lack of research into the relationship between the bioprocess and the shape and size of the particles. The aim of this study is to synthesize silica...
