NATURAL ZEOLITE
NATURAL ZEOLITE
The Natural Zeolite is a porous aluminosilicate volcanic mineral, primarily clinoptilolite, with a three-dimensional crystal structure and a negative charge. This unique structure allows it to absorb and release water, act as a molecular sieve, and facilitate ion exchange, effectively capturing heavy metals, ammonium, and other impurities. These properties make it valuable in a wide range of applications, from water and soil treatment to industrial filtration, agriculture, and potentially natural wellness products.
Applications
- Environmental and water applications: Wastewater treatment, acid mine drainage remediation, coal seam gas water treatment, and septic-leach field enhancement.
- Agricultural and horticultural uses: Soil amendment, fertilizer/nutrient management, and odor control.
- Industrial and construction applications: Building materials, gas adsorption, oil spill cleanup, and paper filler.
