Silica is not much soluble in acidic solution. Silica is slightly acidic so it reacts with strong bases like NaOH and KOH. This reaction is used in furnaces to purify ores of other metals in which silica impurity is present. Silica reacts with NaOH at very high temperatures around $900^0 C $ to form sodium silicate slag. The reaction will be:

Granular silica removal. Silica can exist in water as relatively large particles, known as silica granules or granular silicates. Granular silica removal is generally accomplished through physical chemical separation. The most common approach is lime softening, which is a process where calcium hydroxide (lime) is added to water to remove hardness.
