Zeoliet is 'n wonderlike mineraal

Natural zeolite is an emerging material that is widely used in industry, agriculture, defense and other sectors, and its use is constantly expanding. Zeolite is used as an ion exchanger, adsorption separating agent, desiccant, catalyst, cement mixture.

In die petroleum- en chemiese industrieë word dit gebruik as katalitiese kraking, hidrokraking en chemiese isomerisering, hervorming, alkilering en disproporsionering van petroleumraffinering; Gas en vloeistof suiwering, skeiding en berging agente; Harde water versagting, seewater ontsouting; Spesiale droogmiddels (droë lug, stikstof, koolwaterstowwe, ens.). In die ligte industrie vir papiervervaardiging, sintetiese rubber, plastiek, harse, verfvullers en kwaliteit kleure. In nasionale verdediging, ruimtetegnologie, ultravakuumtegnologie, ontwikkeling van energie, elektroniese industrie, ens., word dit as adsorpsieskeidingsmiddel en droogmiddel gebruik. In die boumateriaalbedryf word dit as sementwaterharde aktiewe byvoeging gebruik, wat kunsmatige ligaggregaat afvuur, ligte en hoësterkte plate en bakstene maak. As 'n grondwysiging in die landbou gebruik, kan dit 'n rol speel in kunsmis, waterretensie en voorkoming van siektes en plae. In die pluimveebedryf kan bymiddels en deodorante wat as voer (varke, hoenders) gebruik word, die groei van vee bevorder en die oorlewingsyfer van kuikens verbeter. Wat omgewingsbeskerming betref, word dit gebruik om afvalgas en afvalwater te behandel, metaalione uit afvalwater en afvalvloeistof te verwyder of te herwin, en radioaktiewe besoedelingstowwe in afvalwater te verwyder.

From a practical point of view, seoliet can be adapted for a variety of uses:

(1) Aquaculture: ammonia filtration in fish hatcheries; Biological filter media. In fish farms, the water load of fish can be very high. This leads to rapid contamination of the water, so the concentration of toxic substances increases rapidly. Therefore, a large amount of water purification is necessary. Zeolite can be used in various steps of the purification process: as a secondary filtration unit after biological purification and/or aeration; as a supporting material for bacteria; As a filter medium, it is used to remove solids and suspended particles and simultaneously remove unwanted ions.

(2) Landbou: reukbeheer; omgewingsbeheer van gevange diere; Veevoer bymiddels. In Oos-Europa word Japannese en Kubaanse seoliet tradisioneel in die landbou gebruik. Deur ongeveer 5% by vee se diëte te voeg, verminder ammoniak- en reukvrystellings, verbeter voerdoeltreffendheid, help met mikotoksienabsorpsie en kan spoorelemente verskaf. 'n Paar jaar gelede het NASA voedingsryke zeoliet as 'n stadigvrystellende kunsmis gebruik.

(3) Tuinbou: kwekery, kweekhuis; Floralisme; groente/kruie; Blaar; boom- en struikoorplanting; turfgras grond wysiging; herwinning, herplanting, landskapering; bebossing (bosbou, plantasies); Hidroponiese medium.

(4) Household products: household odor control; Pet odor control. Domestic uses mainly involve the odor and liquid adsorption characteristics of seoliet. A range of gases, including formaldehyde and hydrogen sulfide, have been shown to be adsorbed by zeolite.

In the United States, seoliet is often added to small air filters to adsorb such gases and reduce allergy problems. It can be used to dry sneakers, reduce moisture in the wardrobe, and is often used to absorb cigarette odors. A very useful carpet cleaner based on seoliet. The most common use of seoliet in the home is as a fat absorbent for cat litter and barbecue. It is also used to adsorb ammonia in fish tanks. When the waste product is fully utilized, it is an ideal addition to compost, helping to regulate and ultimately contribute to soil moisture and nutrient retention.

(5) Industrial products: absorbent of oil and spillage; Gas separation. Industrial uses focus on the liquid and vapor absorption properties of seoliet. It can be ideal for particulate oil/chemical spill cleanup; It is inert and safe to use.

(6) Radioaktiewe afval: terreinremediëring/dekontaminasie.

(7) Waterbehandeling: waterfiltrasie; Verwydering van swaar metale; swembad afvalwater behandeling; Ammoniak/ammonium verwydering uit munisipale slyk/afvalwater; Verwydering van swaar metale; Septiese tenk logingsveld, ens.
