What are zeolite stones used for?
 
Zeolites were formed millions of years ago as a result of the chemical reaction of ash and lava resulting from the eruption of volcanoes with lake or sea waters. Changes such as temperature - geological location - water/ash ratio during the formation of zeolites add unique properties to their compositions. There are 42 types of zeolites with different compositions. Clinoptilolite is the most used type on an industrial scale and has the most commercial importance. Clinoptilolite found in Balıkesir basin has a purity rate of 96%.
 
   The cage-shaped structure of zeolites creates large internal and external surface areas for ion exchange and chemical reactions. The pores inside occupy 50% of its volume. These pores function as molecular sieves. Zeolites are naturally negatively charged and have high ion exchange capacity. Thanks to its porous structure and high ion exchange capacity, it can absorb many types of gases and odors; water and moisture; It has the ability to retain and absorb petrochemical substances, low levels of radioactive elements, ammonium, toxins, heavy metals and many solutions. With its environmentally friendly structure and low cost, zeolite (clinoptilolite) is used in many industrial areas and various environmental projects today.
 
Zeolite Usage Areas: The main physical and chemical properties of zeolites are; The ability to exchange ions, adsorption and the resulting molecular sieve structure, silica content, as well as the light color, lightness and pore structure of small crystals in sedimentary zeolites have led to the use of zeolites in a wide variety of industrial areas.
