The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of natural zeolites characteristics on the adsorption capacity of Pb2+ from an aqueous environment. The used natural zeolites were originated from 3 regions in Indonesia. i.e. Bayah, Banten (coded as ZB) and two samples from South Lampung (coded as ZL-1 and ZL-2) and Nanggung, Bogor (ZN). The characteristics of each natural zeolite were evaluated through a series of detailed analysis including XRD, FTIR, XRF, SEM and N2 physisorption. It was revealed that ZB, ZL-1 and ZL-2 were dominated by clinoptilolite (HEU) frameworks while the major phase of ZN was mordenite (MOR) type. From XRF data, the three natural zeolites (ZB, ZL-1 and ZN) possessed a comparable Si/Al ratio (ca. 5.5 to 6) whereas ZL-2 had slightly lower Si/Al ratio (ca. 4). We found that, at comparable Si/Al ratio, clinoptilolite frameworks has a higher adsorption capacity of Pb2+ compared to that of mordenite due to the compatibility of Pb2+ inside the pores of clinoptilolite. Lower Si/Al ratio of natural zeolite tended to show higher adsorption capacity of Pb2+ since the net charge of zeolite frameworks became more negative. These two factors, the framework type and the Si/Al ratio, are significant for the adsorption capacity. Another factor, i.e. surface area, had no certain effect on the adsorption capacity in this case.

This research modified natural zeolite with TiO2 synthesized by the sol-gel process which was applied as a humic acid adsorbent. The purpose of this study was to coat natural zeolites with TiO2 to increase the adsorption capacity of natural zeolites as humic acid adsorbents. The natural zeolite powders were obtained from Kabupaten Solok, West Sumatra, based on X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis, the ratio of silica/alumina (Si/Al) was 4.35, indicating that natural zeolite was clinoptilolite zeolite. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis showed natural zeolite has a rough surface with closed pores while zeolite coated with TiO2 (zeolite/TiO2) has a homogeneous, smooth surface with open pore. The results of the Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS) analysis showed that the level of TiO2 was 7.1%, this result showed that TiO2 has been coated on the surface of the zeolite. Natural zeolite and zeolite/TiO2 were applied as humic acid adsorbents. Maximum adsorption capacity of natural zeolites and zeolites/TiO2 were 0.2787 mg/g and 1.199 mg/g, respectively.

Indonesia has many zeolite producing areas yet untapped. Researchers developed the utilization of natural zeolites useful for the adsorption of naphthol dyes commonly found in batik waste. In this study researchers used natural zeolites from Purworejo and Ponorogo that are activated using hydrochloric acid that is used for adsorption. The purpose of this research is to know the effect of natural zeolite activation from Ponorogo and Purworejo on the effectiveness of adsorption of naphthol dyes widely used in batik industry. Natural zeolite was activated using HCl concentration of 1.3N; 1.8N; 3.2N; and 3.9N for 60 minutes. The methods are preparation of natural zeolite from Purworejo and Ponorogo, dealumination using hydrochloric acid, adsorption process of naphthol dyes using activated zeolite, and test of adsorption result with uv-vis spectrophotometry. The test results showed that the higher HCl concentration will increase adsorption capacity. This can be known from the concentration of naphthol dye which decreased both using natural zeolite Ponorogo and Purworejo. While the effectiveness of adsorption shows natural zeolite Purworejo has a greater adsorption capacity than Ponorogo with optimum conditions of dealumination using concentration HCl 3,9N.

Biodiesel production from rapeseed oil and methanol via transesterification reaction facilitated by various monometallic catalyst supported on natural zeolite (NZ) was investigated. The physicochemical characteristics of the synthesized catalysts were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method (BET), temperature-programmed-reduction in hydrogen (H2-TPR), temperature-programmed-desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD), Scanning Electron Microscope equipped with EDX detector (SEM-EDS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methods. The highest activity and methyl ester yields were obtained for the Pt/NZ catalyst. This catalyst showed the highest triglycerides conversion of 98.9% and fatty acids methyl esters yields of 94.6%. The activity results also confirmed the high activity of the carrier material (NZ) itself in the investigated reaction. Support material exhibited 90.5% of TG conversion and the Fatty Acid Methyl Esters yield (FAME) of 67.2%. Introduction of noble metals improves the TG conversion and FAME yield values. Increasing of the metal loading from 0.5 to 2 wt.% improves the reactivity properties of the investigated catalysts.

AbstractThis paper presents results from comparative thermogravimetric, calorimetric and pozzolanic activity analyses of five natural zeolite samples from Bulgaria, Slovakia, Philippines, USA and North Korea. The zeolites actively participate in the hydration processes of cement. Their activity in the early stage of hydration is based mainly on the large surface area of the particles while, in the later stages of activation, chemical reactions occur between the products of the hydration of cement and the soluble SiO2 that is present in the bulk of the zeolites. It has been shown that in all cement pastes which contain zeolite additives, the quantity of portlandite is lower than that in pure cement paste or is even totally absent. The amounts of hydration products are greater when 30% zeolite is used than when 10% zeolite is added (excluding the sample with chabazite). The lowest pozzolanic activity is shown by chabazite, which possessed the lowest SiO2/Al2O2 ratio.

Objectives : The physicochemical characteristics of Mg-biochar composites derived from kelp and pine after pretreatment with MgCl2 were analyzed, and their adsorption capacities for an anionic dye, Congo red (CR), were evaluated.Methods : After pretreating 60 g of kelp and pine sawdust in 1 L of 0.1 M MgCl2･6H2O, the raw materials were pyrolyzed at 500℃ to produce Mg-biochar composites (kelp based KB-Mg and pine based PB-Mg). The fundamental physicochemical characteristics of the Mg-biochar composites were examined, and their adsorption capacities for CR were investigated using different initial pH values, adsorption kinetic models, and adsorption isotherm models.Results and discussion : The Mg-biochar composites showed the development of uniform deposits of Mg minerals primarily as MgO crystal on the surface by the surface modification with MgCl2. When the pristine biochars were surface-modified with MgCl2, their adsorption capacities for CR were significantly increased over the entire pH range tested. The CR adsorption process by all biochars was best described with the pseudo-first order kinetics model, and the adsorption isotherm characteristics were better described with the Langmuir isotherm model for all biochars. The Langmuir maximum adsorption capacities for KB-Mg and PB-Mg were 423.0 mg/g and 394.7 mg/g, respectively. It is suggested that the main mechanism for CR adsorption on the Mg-biochars is electrostatic attraction between CR and the biochars.Conclusions : The results showed that surface modification with MgCl2 could greatly enhance the CR adsorption capacity of biochars, and the results demonstrated the great potential of KB-Mg and PB-Mg for CR removal.
