Zeolite
Zeolite is a mineral that was invented in 1756 by the Swedish mineralogist “Axel Fredrik Cronstedt”.The name of this product in Greek is composed of the two words “to boil” and “stone”, often used as catalysts in the industry for water treatment, and their most important use is in the manufacture of detergents.The physical and chemical properties of natural zeolites are different , and the uses of synthetic and natural originate from their physical and chemical properties. It is producing in 2 different method,
Natural formation in alkaline and salt lakes Groundwater Open Systems, Soils of alkaline environments and deep marine sediments. Synthetic Zeolites, First dissolve three water molecules and one aluminum oxide molecule in hot sodium hydroxide solution and then mix with sodium silicate, the resulting mixture is transferred to special gel forming tanks. The crystals begin to crystallize at about 94 ° C from the gel solution.
Zeolite applications
Zeolite is applying in Agriculture as a water-absorbing material in agriculture,Increases cation exchange and fertility, Odor control, Animal Feed Additives, Greenhouse, Flower cultivation, Vegetables, Triming grass soil, Ammonia purification of fish pools and aquatics, Landscaping, Jungle Constructions. It is using in Industrial products, for Oil Absorbent and Derivative, Zeolite in Gas separation. Using in Water and Wastewater Treatment “, as Water purifier, Removal of heavy metals, Swimming pools, Removal of ammonia in sludge. Use in the environment “as, Heavy metal absorption, As an absorbent of oil pollution. Use in Reactor and Radioactive ” as Reconstruction site, Reactors, Application in Atomic Waste Management. Use for Home Products ” as Booster at home, Control pets odor and moisture.
