The invention provides a process for the production of amorphous silica from a silica-based material having a silica content of at least 90% comprising: a) heating said silica-based material with CaCl2, at a temperature in the range of about 900~C to about 1,200~C and in the presence of water vapor in excess of the stoichiometric amount needed for the reaction: x CaCl2 + y SiO2 + x H2O .fwdarw. (CaO)x .bullet. (SiO2)y + 2x HCl wherein x is equal to or greater than y to obtain a conversion of said silica-based material to calcium silicates in excess of 99.9%; b) Leaching said calcium silicates with HCl to form a solution of CaCl2 with insoluble silica; c) separating said insoluble silica from solution; and d) recycling the CaCl2 solution from step "c" to step "a".

L'invention concerne un procédé de préparation de silice amorphe à partir d'une matière à base de silice présentant une concentration en silice d'au moins 90 %. Ce procédé consiste (a) à chauffer cette matière à base de silice avec du CaCl¿2? à une température comprise entre environ 900 ·C et environ 1200 ·C et en présence de vapeur d'eau en quantité supérieure à la quantité stoechiométrique requise pour la réaction x CaCl¿2? + y SiO¿2? + x H¿2?O .fwdarw. (CaO)¿x? .bullet. (SiO2)¿y? + 2x HCl, où x est égal ou supérieur à y, de manière à obtenir une conversion à plus de 99,9 % de cette matière à base de silice en silicates de calcium; (b) à lixivier ces silicates de calcium avec du HCl afin de former une solution de CaCl¿2? avec une silice insoluble; (c) à extraire cette silice insoluble de la solution; et (d) à faire repasser la solution de CaCl¿2? de l'étape (c) à l'étape (a).
