Zeolites are Micro porous, Aluminosilicate mineral commonly used as Adsorbent and Catalysts. Zeolites have a porous structure that can accommodate a wide variety of cations. Zeolites are generally known as molecular sieves and mainly consist of Si, Al, O, Zn and so on. Zeolites are eighter Natural or Synthetic.
Synthetic Zeolites have some key advantages over the natural Zeolites . The Synthetic Zeolites are manufactured in a uniform, Phase-pure state.
Zeolites are widely used as ion-exchange in aqua culture water purification. The Zeolites adsorb toxic substances such as Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate and Hydrogen sulfate which are produced as a result of Metabolism and Microbial Decomposition.
Removes toxic Substances such as Ammonia.
