Zeolite

USES OF ZEOLITE

Zeolites have many useful purposes.

• They can perform ion exchange, filtering, odor removal, chemical sieve and gas absorption tasks.
• The most well known use for zeolites is in water softeners. Calcium in water can cause it to be "hard" and capable of forming scum and other problems. Zeolites charged with the much less damaging sodium ions can allow the hard water to pass through its structure and exchange the calcium for the sodium ions. This process is reversible.
• In a similar way zeolites can absorb ions and molecules and thus act as a filter for odor control, toxin removal and as a chemical sieve.
• Zeolites can have the water in their structures driven off by heat with the basic structure left intact. Then other solutions can be pushed through the structure. The zeolites can then act as a delivery system for the new fluid. This process has applications in medicine, livestock feeds and other types of research.
• Zeolites added to livestock feed have been shown to absorb toxins that are damaging and even fatal to the growth of the animals, while the basic structure of the zeolite is biologically neutral.
• Aquarium hobbyists are seeing more zeolite products in pet stores as zeolites make excellent removers of ammonia and other toxins. Most municipal water supplies are processed through zeolites before public consumption.

These uses of zeolites are extremely important for industry.

Micro-Crystalline, Porous-each pore with definite pore size-white powder synthesized form natural mineral to clean the ponds.

Why AQUA CARE.. Because It...

• Absorb toxic gases like Ammonia, Nitrate and Hydrogen Sulfide.
• Regulate pH level of pond water.
• Provide Micro Nutrients.
• Increase Dissolved Oxygen content.
• Clean the pond by increasing growth and reproduction of Plankton.
• Absorb odors and bacteria, suspended solids, waste and dirty materials produced from unutilized feed, dead plants and fish etc.

The growth or yield of Fish, Prawn, and Shrimp depends largely on favourable water quality characteristics.

 

Aquaculture Application

Benefits in Aquaculture

• Zeolite absorb toxic gases like Ammonia, Nitrate and Hydrogen Sulphide.
• Regulate pH level of pond water.
• Provide Micro Nutrients.
• Increase Dissolved Oxygen content.
• Clean the pond by increasing growth and reproduction of Plankton.
• Absorb odours and bacteria, suspended solids, waste and dirty materials produced from unutilized feed, dead plants and fish etc.

The growth or yield of Fish, Prawn, Shrimp depends largely on favourable water quality characteristics.

In shrimp farming systems excess feed, decal mater or sudden increase or decrease in algal or microbial populations may cause drastic changes in water quality parameters. A part from these physiochemical parameter such as salinity, pH, ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide do play a vital role in the survival / growth of prawn shrimp and fish.

The aqua marine animals release ammonia which is toxic in its un-ionized form and its toxicity varies with pH, salinity and temperature. Un-ionized form of ammonia is particularly damaging to fish grill membranes and retards their overall growth. The Zeolite in AQUA CARE works as filter and helps in further mineralization and to oxidize Ammonia to a less toxic form. Mineralization is the process in which heterotrophic bacteria breakdown complex protein and organics into basic inorganic compounds

 

Animal Feed Supplement

• Zeolites added to livestock feed have been shown to absorb toxins that are damaging and even fatal to the growth of the animals, while the basic structure of the zeolite is biologically neutral
• They perform ion exchange, filtering, odor removal, chemical sieve and gas absorption tasks.
