Application of Zeolite

  1. Water Treatment: Zeolite is used to soften water by exchanging its sodium ions for calcium and magnesium ions, effectively reducing water hardness and improving water quality.
  2. Detergents: In laundry detergents, Zeolite acts as a builder, enhancing cleaning efficiency by softening water and improving the performance of surfactants.
  3. Petrochemicals: Zeolite serves as a catalyst in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) processes, breaking down large hydrocarbon molecules into gasoline and other valuable products.
  4. Agriculture: Zeolite is used as a soil conditioner to improve nutrient retention and water holding capacity, promoting healthier plant growth.
  5. Construction: In construction, Zeolite is used as a lightweight aggregate in concrete, enhancing thermal insulation and reducing the overall weight of structures.
