Abstract
This chapter discusses the attention application of natural zeolites in pollution abatement and industry. Natural zeolites are becoming a genuine mineral commodity and the process is irreversible. Natural zeolites have held substantial attractiveness to geologists, chemists, engineers, veterinarians, medical doctors, physicists, and other specialists in different fields on account of their remarkable properties. Nevertheless, the rapid advance of synthetic zeolites has obscured the widespread commercial utilization of natural zeolites. The purpose of the chapter is to summarize the functions of natural zeolites, of sedimentary origin, as a consequence of the results obtained in fundamental research on these minerals and the progress achieved in the application of natural zeolites in environmental remediation and industry. These minerals are generally inert and nontoxic, and the health organizations in different countries are authorizing the industrial use of natural zeolites.
