ZEOLITE
WHAT IS ZEOLITE?
Zeolites are hydrated aluminum silicates in a crystalline structure.
Millions of years ago, they were formed as a result of the chemical reaction of ash and lava produced by 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 composition. There are 42 types of zeolites with different compositions. Clinoptilolite is the most widely used type of industrial and has the greatest commercial importance. Clinoptilolite found in the Manisa/Gordes basin has a purity rate of 95%.
The lattice-shaped structure of zeolites creates a large inner and outer surface area for ion exchange and chemical reactions. The pores in it occupy 50% of its volume. These pores act as molecular sieves. Zeolites are naturally negatively charged and have a high ion exchange capacity. Thanks to its porous structure and high ion exchange capacity, it can detect many kinds of gases and odors; juice and moisture; It has the ability to retain and absorb petrochemicals, 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.
Our country is rich in zeolite mines. There are many types of zeolite. Zeolites with a type of clinoptilolite and a high degree of purity are suitable for detox purposes. Although it is not well known in our country, it is widely used abroad. In the Japan nuclear explosion, the soil and buildings were covered with zeolite to reduce the spread of radioactivity.
