PRESENTATION ON THE USE OF

ZEOLITE IN WATER TREATMENT AND
HOW IT CAN BE REGENERATED AFETR
IT HAS BEEN USED.
INTRODUCTION

Zeolitesare naturally occurring clay-like compounds that come from volcanic earth deposits
produced from the interaction between ash and volcanic rock with underground water.

Zeolites
are simply referred to as hydrated sodium aluminosilicate materials with exceptional ion-
exchange and sorption properties.

The unique three dimensional porous structure gives natural zeolites various application possibilities.

Numerous studies so far have confirmed their excellent performance on the removal of metal cations
from wastewaters.

However, zeolites can be chemically modified by inorganic salts or organic surfactants, which are
adsorbed on the surface and lead to the generation of positively charged oxi-hydroxides or surfactant
PART IDENTIFICATION
Operation

1 Open the hand valve. Then switch on the power supply.

Wait and observe the steam released from the hand valve.
2 This is to assure there is no air/gas left in the boiler.
Danger: The steam is hot; DO NOT stay near to the hand valve.

After steam is released about 1 minute, close and lock the hand valve and
3 continue the heating process until the pressure gauge reaches the maximum
reading of 10 bars.

During heating process, pressure and temperature will increase. Take both the
4 temperature readings started at 1 bar and continue the reading until 10 bar.
Record your readings in table

5 Once pressure increase until 6 bars, switched OFF the system.

THE USES OF THE MARCET BOILER

It is use to investigate the relationship

between temperature and pressure of a
saturated steam in equilibrium with water.
It is used as water boiler
Gasifier
Power plant
BRIEF HISTORY

Marcet Boiler has been developed for investigating the relationship between the
pressure and temperature of saturated steam, in equilibrium with water, at all
pressure between atmospheric pressure and 10 bar ( 150 lb/in 2 ) . The measure value
of the slope of the graph ( dT/dP ) SAT obtained from the practical results can be
compared with corresponding values calculated from the data in steam tables.

Clausius ( 1822-1888 ) the German Physicist and one of the founders of

Thermodynamics was instrumental in deriving the relevant Clausius-Clapeyron
relationship
