the objective of this research is to find an economically attractive alternative method for hydrodesulfurization of petroleum fractions and to select a suitable adsorbent for this process.deep desulfurization of transportation fuels (gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels) is being mandated by governments and is also needed for future fuel cell applications. however, it is extremely difficult and cost...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the capacity of natural Turkish zeolite for NH4-N removal from landfill leachate. The effects of modification and initial concentration on the removal of NH4-N from leachate were also investigated. The kinetics of adsorption of NH4-N has been discussed using three kinetic models, i.e., the pseudo-second order model, the Elovich equation, the intrapart...

background: natural organic compounds are known as precursors in the formation of disinfection byproducts. the aim of this study was to evaluate of effect of modified cationic surfactant nano zeolite in the removal of humic acid (ha) from water. materials and methods: nano zeolite (clinoptilolite) was modified by cationic surfactant solution hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (hdtma-br), in dos...

Natural zeolites are abundant and inexpensive resources. They crystalline hydrated aluminosilicates with a framework structure that has pores channels occupied by water, alkali, alkaline earth cations. Having high cation exchange capacity, acting as molecular sieve, natural have been widely utilized in recent decades adsorbents separation purification processes. Modification of zeolite increase...

In the research described in this paper, studied was sorption capacity of natural and ferric modification of zeolite tuff containing mineral clinoptilolite from the Nižný Hrabovec deposit to remove potentially toxic metals (ionic forms of chromium, nickel, copper and aluminium) from their water solutions. We reported that the Fe (III) zeolite has an enhanced ability to sorption of Cu (II), and ...

nitrate is an anion of major importance particularly in biological areas. excessive amounts in water supplies indicate pollution from sewage or agricultural effluents. the effects of excessive quantities of nitrate in water are well known. in this research structural modification of natural clinoptilolite by isomorphic substitution was performed. isomorphously substituted zeolite was prepared u...

effect of natural zeolites and nano-zeolite on gut flora, tibia bone characteristics, blood parameters and performance of broilers investigated with 336 male ross 308 broilers chicks allocated to   seven treatments with four replicates and 12 chicks per each. experimental treatments were control (no zeolite supplemented), natural zeolite (0.5, 1 and 1.5 percent) and nano-zeolite (0.5, 1 and 1.5...

This paper describes studies of surface modification of a natural Chilean zeolite with cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), to investigate the adsorption efficiency for the removal from aqueous solution of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), at bench scale. Modification of the zeolite with CTAB (named ZMS) was based on the external cation exchange capacity (ECEC) ...
