Effects of Sodium Hydroxide Concentration on Zeolite Y Synthesized from Elefun Kaolinite Clay in Nigeria
Zeolite Y was synthesized hydrothermally from Elefun kaolinite clay. The raw kaolinite was calcined at 8500C to obtain more reactive clay (metakaolin). The metakaolin was dealuminated using non-heating methods to obtain the optimum dealumination route desired silica to alumina ratio between 3 and 7. The non-heating method proved successful in producing a desired ratio of 4 which was used in...
