Zeolite Powder

Description

Zeolite Powder, a naturally occuring material composed of different mineral crystals and tiny microscopic particles of ceramic.The world of zeolite powders is vast and ever-evolving. New applications and benefits are constantly being discovered, making them a valuable resource for various industries and endeavors.

Types of Zeolite Powder

• Clinoptilolite: The most common and commercially available type, known for its excellent adsorption and ion-exchange properties.
• Chabazite: Used in various applications like gas separation and catalysis due to its specific pore size and structure.
• Mordenite: Employed in wastewater treatment and soil remediation for its effective adsorption of pollutants.
• Stilbite: Used in construction materials and agriculture for its water-holding capacity and slow-release properties.

Applications:

• Agriculture: Improve soil fertility, retain moisture, and remove toxins and heavy metals from soil.
• Environmental remediation: Clean up polluted water and soil, remove toxins from wastewater, and trap harmful gases.
• Industrial processes: Used in gas separation, oil refining, catalysis, and wastewater treatment.
• Construction materials: Add strength and fire resistance to building materials.
• Health and wellness: Some zeolites are used in dietary supplements and detoxification products, although their effectiveness in these areas is still under research.

Zeolites also crystallize in post-depositional environments over periods ranging from thousands to millions of years in shallow marine basins. Naturally occurring zeolites are rarely pure and are contaminated to varying degrees by other minerals, metals or other zeolites.
