StormwaterZEOLITE

StormwaterZEOLITE™ is a high grade natural clinoptilolite zeolite, direct from the mine in the USA.

StormwaterZEOLITE™ has a high cation-exchange capacity and can be effective in the reduction of ammonium, heavy metals, light metals, sodium and radioactive isotopes, oils and hydrocarbons in stormwater.

StormwaterZEOLITE™ (Clinoptilolite) lattices are negatively charged and loosely hold cations such as calcium, sodium, ammonium, and potassium. The lattice cavities hold up to 55% by weight in water.

The ability of StormwaterZEOLITE™ to exchange one cation for another is known as cation-exchange capacity or CEC. StormwaterZEOLITE™ can release beneficial elements while capturing and binding undesirable elements and compounds.

Adsorption: Ammonium and other cations are held in the negatively charged lattice through CEC (cation exchange capacity) and are not water soluble.

Absorption: StormwaterZEOLITE™ can hold up to 55% of its weight in water in its channel-ways making it an excellent desiccant. Atoms, molecules or ions are more loosely held in the channel-ways and are water soluble.

Also available in ZEOLITESAND™, a course sand size StormwaterZEOLITE™ (available sizes -14+40, -8+40 & -4+8 mesh).

StormwaterZEOLITE™ is 85 to 95% pure natural clinoptilolite zeolite and contains:

· Approximately 3.5% potassium, a plant nutrient

· Approximately 2.02% calcium, a pH buffer for animals and soils

· Less than 0.5% non-water soluble sodium, a toxin to plants

· No significant concentrations of water soluble toxic trace elements

· Low clay content, making it hard and resistant to attrition

· High CEC (cation exchange capacity) that allows loading of approximately 2.2% nitrogen

· A large surface area of approximately 24.9 square meters per gram

Simple. Proven. Effective. Affordable.
