Abstract

The natural zeolite clinoptilolite can be used as an ion exchanger for the removal of ammonium ions from drinking waters. These waters may also contain small amounts of heavy metals. The retention possibilities of these cations by the zeolite are presented. The study of the selectivity of the Na-exchanged clinoptilolite in presence of ammonium ions has been achieved by plotting the exchange isotherms relative to the various cations. This leads to the following order of decreasing efficiency of the zeolite.
