Products of Apatite-Nepheline Ore Processing in the Synthesis of Low-Modulus Zeolites

Abstract

The article presented the results of studies on the production of low-modulus zeolites from two types of technogenic resources containing a sufficient amount of silicon in their composition. The raw materials were nepheline concentrate and silica gel, which are products of the processing of apatite-nepheline ore. Directly before the synthesis of low-modulus zeolites, the morphology, chemical composition, and particle size of the starting materials were analyzed. The optimal parameters for sample preparation and purification of the raw materials used were also selected. The influence of the ratio of components in the reaction mixture on the type of synthesized zeolite and its characteristics were studied. The properties of synthesized zeolites from the proposed type of raw material were compared with the properties of zeolites synthesized today using the popular technology from kaolin clay, which is currently offered as an inexpensive natural raw material.

Preparation and Electrochemical Performance of Activated Composite Carbon Nanofibers Using Extraction Residue from Direct Coal Liquefaction Residue

“…PAHs and some metallic micro-particles are adsorbed onto the particles, thereby causing a higher risk of lung cancer [10]. Reports have shown that the PAHs in coal smoke are a major carcinogen contributing to a high lung cancer risk, since high concentrations of carcinogenic PAHs have been found in the emission particles from coal combustion associated with the highest lung cancer risk [11], and lung cancer risks were shown to decrease by around 50% after stove improvement and venting the coal smoke outdoors [12][13][14]. Therefore, the clean and valuable utilization of DCLR is essential.…”

Integral Assessment of Influence Mechanism of Heavy Particle Generator on Hydrocarbon Composition of Vehicles Motor Fuel

“…Thus, the rational use of fuel by optimizing its composition while improving the design of vehicles is an urgent task and is of considerable theoretical and practical importance, and improving fuel quality is an important national task (17,18).…”

Green and low-cost synthesis of zeolites from kaolin: a promising technology or a delusion?

“…In the first case, these are kaolin, bentonite, palygorskite, diatomite, illite, feldspar, mordenite or rectorite; in the second – fly ash, rice husk, foamed pearlite wastes and apatite–nepheline ore processing products. 8,17,18 Such strategies imply low-cost production and reduction of associated wastes. At the same time, the product purity is reduced due to the use of materials that inevitably contain impurities.…”
