  • Can natural zeolites be used in wastewater treatment?
  • The use of natural zeolites in wastewatertreatment is one of the oldest and the most perspective areas of their application.
  • What are the properties of natural zeolite?
  • Properties of natural zeolites The structure of natural zeolite is very interesting and complex. The primary building units (PBU) of zeolites are the SiO 4 and AlO 4 tetrahedra. They connect via oxygen ions into secondary building units (SBU), which are then linked into a three-dimensional crystalline structure of zeolite.
  • Does natural zeolite remove anions and organic compounds from water?
  • Apart from the presence of cations in water, anions and organic compounds are widely presented in wastewater. In recent years, natural zeolite and its modified forms have also been reported for removal of anions and organics from water systems. However, no such a review has been found.
  • Does natural zeolite adsorb organics in aqueous solution?
  • Therefore, natural zeolite exhibits little adsorption of organics in aqueous solution due to its surface hydrophilics. Surfactant modification can change the surface functionality by adding hydrophobic groups and thus enhancing adsorption capacity of various organics. However, the adsorption depends on surfactant loading and coverage on zeolite. 5.
