About this document
Gibbs Free Energy for SiO2 Reduction by Sebastian Joseph is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The minimum equilibrium partial pressure of oxygen required to reduce SiO2 at 1600°C is 8.55 × 10−17. The corresponding CO/CO2 ratio is 4.30 × 104 and the H2/H2O ratio is 1.12 × 104. These ratios were calculated using thermodynamic equations and the Gibbs free energy of relevant reactions at 1600°C. The Ellingham diagram also provides values for the H2/H2O and CO/CO2 ratios.
