“…Also, it was found that the main zeolite applied as a slow‐release fertilizer so far is clinoptilolite, which is a natural zeolite, whereas the main industrial residue used for the synthesis of zeolites is fly ash from coal. It is believed that applied research related to the synthesis of zeolites and their application in agriculture will continuously grow in the future because of their high efficiency as slow‐release fertilizer, and according to Xie and Su (2020), because zeolites have unique properties, and can also be used in other emerging applications, such as: carriers of herbicides, fungicides and pesticides (Barbosa et al., 2018), water treatment, atmospheric purification, agriculture and industrial catalysis (Cao et al., 2023).…”

Zeolites have been widely applied as catalysts, wastewater treatment agents, gas adsorbents and fertilizers, among others. However, the use of natural zeolites or those synthesized from oversaturated commercial solutions are more explored commercially than the zeolites synthesized from residues. Therefore, the aim of this review is to highlight the importance of zeolites synthesized from agro‐industrial residues and their use in agriculture. This review has been divided into three different sections, that is, zeolites, agriculture applications, synthesis of zeolites from residues and their application in plant growth. In the first section, the definition, types and the critical properties of zeolites are explained. The second section gives a brief review of the application of zeolites in agriculture. Finally, the synthesis of zeolites from residues, such as coal ash, rice husk ash and sugarcane ash, with special attention to renewable sources is presented. The optimization of the synthesis of zeolites from residues with the incorporation of specific nutrients necessary for the cultivation of soybeans, corn and sugarcane (considered the most significant crops in Brazilian agriculture in terms of the planted area) can significantly contribute to the concept of circular economy at the industries and the fulfilment of sustainable development objectives, especially, the number 12 (SDO—12—Responsible consumption and production).

“…Zeolites are materials that are naturally occurring and can be synthesized in the laboratory. Today, although the search for silica-alumina-containing raw materials suitable for the structure for the production of synthetic zeolites continues, as a result of literature research, it has been observed that solid wastes such as coal fly ash (Zhou et al 2023), coal gangue (Yang et al 2023), rice husk (Jin et al 2023), and coal gasification slag (Cao et al 2023) are used (Batubara et al 2023). Zeolites are commonly synthesized by conventional hydrothermal synthesis method, alkaline fusion-assisted hydrothermal synthesis method (Ayele et al 2016), microwave-assisted synthesis method (Truttim et al 2023), and ultrasonic hydrothermal synthesis (Yin et al 2023) methods.…”

Increasing world population, urbanization, and industrialization have led to an increase in demand in production and consumption, resulting in an increase in industrial solid wastes and pollutant levels in water. These two main consequences have become global problems. The high Si and Al content of solid wastes suggests that they can be used as raw materials for the synthesis of zeolites. In this context, when the literature studies conducted to obtain synthetic zeolites are evaluated, it is seen that hydrothermal synthesis method is generally used. In order to improve the performance of the hydrothermal synthesis method in terms of energy cost, synthesis time, and even product quality, additional methods such as alkaline fusion, ultrasonic effect, and microwave support have been developed. The zeolites synthesized by different techniques exhibit superior properties such as high surface area and well-defined pore sizes, thermal stability, high cation exchange capacity, high regeneration ability, and catalytic activity. Due to these specific properties, zeolites are recognized as one of the most effective methods for the removal of pollutants. The toxic properties of heavy metals and dyes in water and their carcinogenic effects in long-term exposure pose a serious risk to living organisms. Therefore, they should be treated at specified levels before discharge to the environment. In this review study, processes including different methods developed for the production of zeolites from industrial solid wastes were evaluated. Studies using synthetic zeolites for the removal of high levels of health and environmental risks such as heavy metals and dyes are reviewed. In addition, EPMA, SEM, EDX, FTIR, BET, AFM, and 29Si and 27Al NMR techniques, which are characterization methods of synthetic zeolites, are presented and the cation exchange capacity, thermodynamics of adsorption, effect of temperature, and pH are investigated. It is expected that energy consumption can be reduced by large-scale applications of alternative techniques developed for zeolite synthesis and their introduction into the industry. It is envisaged that zeolites synthesized by utilizing wastes will be effective in obtaining a green technology. The use of synthesized zeolites in a wide variety of applications, especially in environmental problems, holds great promise. Graphical Abstract
