What is Zeolite?

Zeolite minerals are known as aluminum silicate, mainly sodium and calcium minerals and water. They are naturally formed from the interaction of ground water with volcanic rocks or clay minerals. Zeolite is made up of a group of natural minerals that are very useful in agricultural, industrial and environmental fields. Modern agriculture is witnessing large and wide uses of zeolite due to chemical and physical properties.

The zeolite ores in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan are located in many areas from the north east to the south and discovered on the surface and close to the roads in most geological discoveries.

The Jordanian zeolite ore is characterized by highest purity and largest reserves (quantity and quantity).

• High speed in absorption of water, gases and steaming (high evaporation).
• The filtration result strength of spaces forming high porosity and low density.
• The high-charge positive and exchange capacity of ions is three times that of clay minerals.
• Control the level of alkali in all state.
• Control the natural and chemical quantities of the biochemical dissolved oxygen.
• Increase the surface area of ​​granular surface.
• Combining absorption and adsorption processes.
• Control the pH of the water inside the soil.
• Absorption of heavy metals from water and soil such as lead, iron, mercury, tin and manganese…
