Engineering and Manufacturing of Silica (SiO₂) Processing Plants
At Wingflow, we design and build advanced processing plants for a wide range of silica-based products — including silica gel, silica sol, and liquid sodium silicate.
Our team delivers complete end-to-end solutions, from initial concept development to plant commissioning, tailored to your specific production requirements.
Scope of Supply
- Process flow diagram (PFD)
- Basic & detailed engineering
- Core process equipment (reactors, dryers, mills)
- Utilities integration
- Automation concept
- Installation supervision
- Commissioning & training
Typical project timeline: 24–36 months
We provide equipment and plant designs for:
- Liquid Sodium Silicate – Also called water glass. It has wide use in adhesives, detergents, construction, and chemical processing.
- Silica Sol – A colloidal solution with nano-sized silica particles.
- Micronized Silica Gel – Ultra-fine particles for specialized applications like paints, plastics, and drug formulations.

Innovation & Patents
Our engineering expertise is backed by patented technologies that ensure high efficiency, reduced waste, and reliable output.
🔹
Patented Method for Production of Micronized Silica Gels
This patented method allows us to adapt the design of silica gel plants to meet specific customer requirements — whether in terms of scale, raw materials, or product specifications. It ensures efficient, flexible, and cost-effective production of high-quality micronized silica gels.
🔹
Patented Reactor for Production of Micronized Silica Gels
We also hold a patent for our proprietary
gelation unit (reactor), which is the core of the silica gel manufacturing process. This reactor enables precise control over gel formation, resulting in consistent particle size and improved performance of the final product.
