Zeolit ​​adalah mineral yang menakjubkan

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.

Dalam industri petroleum dan kimia, ia digunakan sebagai keretakan pemangkin, perengkahan hidro dan pengisomeran kimia, reformasi, alkilasi dan ketidakkadaran penapisan petroleum; Ejen penulenan, pengasingan dan penyimpanan gas dan cecair; Pelembutan air keras, penyahgaraman air laut; Bahan pengering khas (udara kering, nitrogen, hidrokarbon, dll.). Dalam industri ringan untuk pembuatan kertas, getah sintetik, plastik, resin, pengisi cat dan warna berkualiti. Dalam pertahanan negara, teknologi angkasa, teknologi ultravakum, pembangunan tenaga, industri elektronik, dan lain-lain, ia digunakan sebagai agen pemisahan penjerapan dan bahan pengering. Dalam industri bahan binaan, ia digunakan sebagai campuran aktif keras air simen, menembak agregat cahaya buatan, membuat plat dan batu bata ringan dan berkekuatan tinggi. Digunakan sebagai pindaan tanah dalam pertanian, ia boleh memainkan peranan dalam baja, pengekalan air, dan pencegahan penyakit dan perosak. Dalam industri ayam, bahan tambahan dan deodoran yang digunakan sebagai makanan (babi, ayam) boleh menggalakkan pertumbuhan ternakan dan meningkatkan kadar kemandirian anak ayam. Dari segi perlindungan alam sekitar, ia digunakan untuk merawat gas buangan dan air sisa, membuang atau memulihkan ion logam daripada air buangan dan cecair sisa, dan membuang bahan pencemar radioaktif dalam air sisa.

From a practical point of view, zeolit 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) Pertanian: kawalan bau; kawalan alam sekitar haiwan kurungan; Bahan tambahan makanan ternakan. Di Eropah Timur, zeolit ​​Jepun dan Cuba secara tradisinya digunakan dalam pertanian. Menambah kira-kira 5% kepada diet ternakan mengurangkan pelepasan ammonia dan bau, meningkatkan kecekapan makanan, membantu dalam penyerapan mikotoksin, dan mungkin memberikan unsur surih. Beberapa tahun yang lalu, NASA menggunakan zeolit ​​yang kaya dengan nutrien sebagai baja pelepasan perlahan.

(3) Hortikultur: tapak semaian, rumah hijau; Floralisme; sayur-sayuran/herba; Daun; pemindahan pokok dan pokok renek; pindaan tanah turfgrass; penambakan, penanaman semula, landskap; penanaman semula hutan (perhutanan, perladangan); Medium hidroponik.

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

In the United States, zeolit 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 zeolit. The most common use of zeolit 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 zeolit. It can be ideal for particulate oil/chemical spill cleanup; It is inert and safe to use.

(6) Sisa radioaktif: pemulihan tapak/dekontaminasi.

(7) Rawatan air: penapisan air; Penyingkiran logam berat; rawatan air sisa kolam renang; Penyingkiran ammonia/ammonium daripada enap cemar/air sisa perbandaran; Penyingkiran logam berat; Medan larut lesap tangki septik, dsb.
