Preparation and characterization of an efficient zeolitic material from a local natural kaolinitic clay and its uses in the elimination of an organic dye
Main Article Content
Abstract
The zeolitic porous material was prepared from kaolinitic clay (DD1 from Gebel Debbagh, Algeria) using a cheap and easy process to insert a sodium ion into the kaolinitic clay structure. The obtained zeolitic Linde Type-A (LTA) material was characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques. The adsorption capacity of the zeolitic porous material was tested with methylene blue. The best correlation of experimental results was obtained with the Langmuir model giving a Qmax of 11.5 mg/g indicating a favorable process for the adsorption of the dye.
