Modified Method for Bentonite Purification and Characterization; a Case Study Using Bentonite from Tsunagi Mine, Niigata, Japan

Abstract: A modified procedure for bentonite purification and a new method for the quantitative characterization of bentonite using smectite content are reported. Bentonite found in a drill core of Tsunagi Mine, Niigata, Japan was evaluated by the new method to demonstrate the substantial increase in smectite content from 40% in the original bentonite to 75% after purification using a new procedure. Powder samples were prepared by putting blocks of bentonite into acetone to remove water without mechanical crushing. The … Show more

“…This is due to what probably results from the beneficiation and purification processes, such as sieve fractionation in which a large amount of the impurities, such as quartz, feldspar, carbonates and organic matter, are eliminated. [48][49][50] PetBent also shows a typical behavior of montmorillonites, with a (001) reflection (basal reflection). A characteristic peak at 2θ = 7° also infers the possibility of being a montmorillonite.…”

“…The elimination of impurities such as quartz produced a more pure clay mineral, which is richer in montmorillonite and more suitable for the cation exchange procedure. 49,50 Analysis of the water of the Jacarepaguá Lagoon (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) Table 4 presents the results for the chemical analyses of some important parameters for the study of the Jacarepaguá Lagoon water and the comparison with those established in the CONAMA Resolution No. 357/2005 (Brazilian legislation).…”

“…The XRD pattern revealed that Na-exchange had been successfully performed since the position of the 001 smectite peak in all the investigated samples corresponded to the Na-forms of smectite with d 001 at around 1.2-1.3 nm. 30 The raw bentonites from Texas and Bogovina were dominantly smectites of the Ca--type with characteristic basal spacing of d 001 = 1.5 nm.…”
