Oxidation:
*Dry oxidation using O<sub>2</sub>. Reaction: Si + O<sub>2</sub> -> SiO<sub>2</sub>
*Dry oxidation using O<sub>2</sub>. Reaction: Si + O<sub>2</sub> -> SiO<sub>2</sub>
*Wet oxidation using steam/H<sub>2</sub>O. Reaction: Si + 2H<sub>2</sub>O -> SiO<sub>2</sub> + 2H<sub>2</sub>(g). The steam is generated by a Bronkhorst steamer injection system.  
*Wet oxidation using water vapour/steam. Reaction: Si + 2H<sub>2</sub>O -> SiO<sub>2</sub> + 2H<sub>2</sub>(g). The steam is generated by a Bronkhorst steamer injection system.
