The catalytic activity of tin-containing zeolites, such as Sn-Beta, is critically dependent on the successful incorporation of the tin metal center into the zeolite framework. However, synchrotron-based techniques or solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) of samples enriched with (119)Sn isotopes are the only reliable methods to verify framework incorporation. This work demonstrates, fo...

In this work, we have modified a synthesized Y-type zeolite (Si/Al = 2.5), with three different amines to investigate of the influence of adsorbent’s surface modification on CO2 selectivity over CH4. The pristine and amine-functionalized NaY zeolites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and N2 adsorption. The resu...

INTRODUCTION zeolites (clinoptilolites) are a family of alluminosilicates and cations clustered to form macro aggregates by small individual cavities. In the medical area they are involved in detoxification mechanisms capturing ions and molecules into their holes. Actually, we classify about 140 types of natural and 150 synthetic zeolites, for specific and selective use. Clinoptilolite is a nat...

Calcium-rich zeolites control naturally occurring chemical degradation in the black soils (Vertisols and their intergrades). With the help of modern tools such as remote sensing, geographic information system, soil database, geological information, topography and other related datasets, an attempt was made to update the distribution of zeolitic soils in India. To ascertain the presence of Ca-ri...

The capacity of natural zeolites to absorb anionic pollutants from water is limited. This limitation can be overcome by modifying the surface of the minerals with organic cations. In this research, natural zeolite, Analcime was used for removing the nitrate and nitrite impurities from aqueous solutions. The surface of the zeolite was modified by tetramethylammonium and tetraethylammonium ions t...

The recently proposed united atom force field by Dubbeldam et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 2004, 93, 088302) for the adsorption of alkanes in MFI-type zeolites was extended to other zeolites in this work. Its applicability to FER-type zeolites was evaluated in detail, for which the Henry coefficients, the isosteric heat of adsorption, the adsorption isotherms, as well as the locations of alkanes in th...
