Introduction

Environmental Zeolites and Aqueous Media: Examples of Practical Solutions brings to light the characteristic features of ion exchange and adsorption onto natural zeolite for environmental cleanup processes, particularly for water purification, zeolite`s present, past and future. This book emphasizes on the recent development in the synthesis and manufacturing of the advanced cost-effective organic and inorganic zeolite-based adsorbents.

The scope of this book covers a range of topics including natural zeolite, general aspects of adsorption, physical characterization of fundamental ion exchange, kinetic and thermodynamic studies and diagenesis in hydrologically open systems.

The contents of this book include chapters on occurrence, diagenesis and crystal structure of zeolites, basic research of ion exchange and adsorption onto zeolites in aqueous solutions, kinetic and thermodynamic studies for phosphate removal using natural adsorption materials, natural zeolite and many more.

Environmental Zeolites and Aqueous Media: Examples of Practical Solutions is a valuable resource for graduate students, undergraduate students and researchers seeking updated and critically important information in this field.
