The basics of the structural chemistry of zeolites explained: zeolites are crystalline, microporous tectoaluminosilicates, wherein Si and Al atoms, collectively referred to as 'T atoms', are tetrahedrally coordinated by O atoms. These TO 4 units, connected by their apices (i.e., O atoms), form a three-dimensional network (left panel).

Zeolites form in nature as a result of the chemical reaction between volcanic glass and saline water. Temperatures favoring the natural reaction range from 27°C to 55°C, and the pH is typically between 9 and 10. Nature requires 50 to 50,000 years to complete the reaction. Naturally occurring zeolites are rarely phase-pure and are contaminated ...

1.1 Zeolite Memories. The word zeolite, from the Greek words ζειν, "zeo" or "zein" (boiling) and λιθοσ or "lithos" (stone), i.e., "boiling stone", was adopted in 1756 by the Swedish mineralogist Baron Axel Fredrik Crönstedt in his publication An Essay Towards a System of Mineralogy (Masters and Maschmeyer 2011 ).

The hydrophilicity of zeolites enables them as effective desiccants, deriving the first industrial implementation in separation. The zeolites exert strong physical force …

The ratio (Al+Si):O is 1:2. In calcic zeolites, the ratio (Ca:Al) is always 1:2, and in alkali zeolites, the ratio (Na,K):Al is always 1:1. Zeolites and feldspathoids are closely related, but zeolites have more open structures and contain loosely bonded H 2 O compared with feldspathoids. Sodalite is sometimes grouped with the feldspathoids ...
