The influence of thermal activation, decationation, and dealumination on adsorption properties of rock from Transcarpathian deposit (Lypcha village, Ukraine) containing mordenite and clinoptilolite at the ratio 1:1 was studied in this research. Taking into account the need of preliminary thermal activation of adsorbent, the research of thermal stability of zeolite component of rock was conducted. Parameters of microporous structure of decationated and dealuminated samples were calculated. Obtained results show that decationation of mordenite-clinoptilolite rock leads to insignificant increase and dealumination leads to significant decrease of adsorption capacity for water. Maximal adsorption ability for methanol is about 50% dealumination degree of the sample.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
