Calcium Oxide (CaO) loaded on zeolite was categorized as a heterogeneous catalyst. The utilization of CaO catalyst could be implemented in catalytic pyrolysis enhance gaseous production. In this paper, CaSO4.2H2O is an active site embedded natural zeolite, and the activity CaO-Zeolite synthesized by sonochemical impregnation-assisted drying process calcination. stirrer impregnation method used ...

this study was accomplished to examine the efficiency of natural zeolite in preventing acute toxicity of total ammonia to huso huso. the study was performed using water static method in 96 hours. fish averaged 46 ? 5 g in weight and 22 ? 4 cm in total length were exposed to four different concentrations (15, 30, 50, 75 mgl-1) of ammonia and a group was considered as control. under stable condit...

The objective of this study was to assess the effect of clinoptilolite (a natural zeolite) on growth and performance of broilers as well as on the quality of their litter. A total of 5,200 one-day old broiler chickens (Cobb 500) were used in two consecutive rounds lasting 42 days each. The broilers were given free and continuous access to a nutritionally non-limiting diet (in meal form) that wa...
