Calcined Zeolite Production Cost Reports

Calcined Zeolite production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Calcined zeolites production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Calcined zeolites. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Calcined zeolites are natural zeolites that have been modified by calcination to alleviate the demand for high water in natural zeolites. Zeolite ((Ca, K2, Na2)2[Al2Si4O12]2·12H2O) are a group of silicate minerals that is a hydrated aluminosilicate mineral family containing alkali and alkaline-earth metals with unique properties and industrial applications. They are naturally found in geologically newer volcanic fields.

They are typically formed around regions where ash layers and volcanic rocks react with alkaline groundwater. They also crystallize in shallow marine basins in post-sedimentation atmospheres for a duration of thousands to millions of years. Natural zeolites are hardly ever pure and include contaminations like other metals, minerals, quartz or other zeolites.

The zeolite structure is typically well-formed crystals that have pale colours and are mostly soft and easy to crush. The most common zeolite minerals include chabazite, heulandite, mordenite, phillipsite, analcime, clinoptilite, natrolite, and stilbite. They vary in colours like white, yellow, red, pink or colourless with a white streak and vitreous lustre. It has a Mohs Hardness of 4-5 and an irregular/uneven fracture.

Zeolites are extensively used as ion exchange beds in domestic and commercial water purification and softening, among others. In chemistry, zeolites find use in separating molecules (just the ones of certain sizes and shapes). They are also used as common catalysts and sorbents. They help silver in the naturally emitted light, which can open up prospects for new lighting technologies which can substitute fluorescent lamps or LEDs.

Furthermore, they are used in built-in oxygen generating systems (OBOGS) and Oxygen concentrators along with pressure oscillating adsorption to get rid of pressurized nitrogen from compressed air and supply oxygen for the high-altitude aircrew and portable oxygen sources. Other uses of the zeolites include their application in nuclear waste reprocessing methods; as solar thermal collectors and for adsorption cooling; in Portland cement; in agriculture for soil treatment; and in pet stores as filter additives in aquariums etc., which further expands the industry's expansion.
