Question

Zeolite process is used to remove (A) iron (B) hardness (C) zinc (D) pH value

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Zeolite is a silicate of sodium and found as a rock mineral naturally. When zeolite is brought in contact with hard water a simple exchange of bases takes place. Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions in hard water are exchanged by Na+ ions in zeolite. NO precipitate is formed.

Zeolite is a silicate of sodium and found as a rock mineral naturally. When zeolite is brought in contact with hard water a simple exchange of bases takes place. $C a^{2 +}$ and $M g^{2 +}$ ions in hard water are exchanged by $N a^{+}$ ions in zeolite. $NO$ precipitate is formed.
