RE:RE:RE:Valuation Energy consumption for HPQ fumed silica process is 90% less than traditional methods so Evonik and others might even repurpose some existing facilities and build new ones with HPQ technology.
Energy consumptions between 10 – 15 KWh per Kg of Fumed Silica produced [4] versus 100 – 120 KWh per Kg of Fumed Silica produced by traditional producer [5], reducing the energy consumption by about 90%
