Browsing: Zeolite
Zeolites are a group of naturally occurring and synthetic minerals characterized by their porous, crystalline structure. They are composed primarily of silicon, aluminum, and oxygen, forming a framework that can trap and exchange cations, making them highly effective as molecular sieves. Zeolites are widely used in various industrial applications, including water purification, gas separation, and catalysis in petrochemical refining. Their ability to adsorb and release water and other molecules makes them valuable in detergents and environmental cleanup efforts, particularly in removing heavy metals and radioactive materials. Additionally, zeolites play a role in agricultural and medical fields due to their ion-exchange capabilities and biocompatibility.
