Zeolite Filters are widely used in environmental pollution control. These; Removal of heavy metals such as Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd and Hg from industrial wastewater, removal of toxic ammonium (NH4+) from municipal wastewater and drinking water, cleaning of flue gases, cleaning of oil spills, air pollution-causing SO2, CO, CO2, It is classified as holding gases such as H2S, NH3, NOx, garbage storage areas, metallurgy applications and removing bad odors in closed spaces.
It is appropriate to use selective cation exchangers such as natural zeolite in wastewater, where recovery of heavy metal is not economical and cannot be easily separated due to its chemical properties, especially with the use of special resins with high selectivity.
Zeolite Filter Systems reduce the initial investment cost and operating costs with the increase in capacity. It increases the reuse possibilities of the sludge in parallel with the improvement in the sludge characteristic with the removal of heavy metals. Reducing the need for polyelectrolyte for sludge dewatering provides a reduction in chemical costs.
