Faujasite type zeolite synthesized from kaolin minerals was cation-exchanged and the catalytic activities of $1-Butene{\rightarrow}2-butene$ took place readily even on zeolites having no strong acid sites. The order of activity for isobutene formation was La > H > Zn > Na-faujasite, La-faujasite showing much higher activity. The same trend was observed for propylene formation except that both La-and H-faujasite showed comparable activity. The results seem to indicate that the activities for 1-buten cracking and isomerization on zeolite are directly related to the strength and concentration of the acid sites on zeolites.

This study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of ammonia removal by zeolite adsorption in drinking water treatment. In generally, drinking water treatment process is conducted coagulation/flocculation, sedimentation, sand filtration and disinfection. We tested feasibility with two method, one is powdered zeolite dosing to coagulation tank and the other is to substitute granular zeolite for sand of sand filter. In powdered zeolite test, raw water is used tap water with putting of 2 mg/l of NH$_4$$\^$+/-N. Filtration of granular zeolite was conducted with 80 cm of effective column high and 120 m/d of flow rate. At above 100 mg/1 of zeolite dosage, ammonia concentration was decreased below 0.5 mg/l of NH$_4$$\^$+/-N in powdered zeolite test. But, turbidity was increased to 30 NTU by powdered zeolite dosage. That turbidity was scarcely decreased in generally coagulant using condition in drinking water treatment. In granular zeolite test, ammonia was not detected in treated water until 8 days. This result suggest that using of granular zeolite in sand filter could be removal ammonia in winter. But we need regeneration at zeolite filtration for ammonia removal. So, it is to make clear that zeolite regeneration ability was compared KCl with NaCl. The result reveal that KCl was more excellent than NaCl. Optimum regeneration concentration of KCl was revealed 100 mM. Regeneration efficient was not increased at pH range 10∼12.5.

Hadong-Kaolin was treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. The crystalline structure was studied by X-ray powder diffraction method. The optimum conditions for various crystal formation were as follows: Crystal Concentration Temp. reating time Halloysite 1~4 N NaOH $60^{\circ}C$ 0.5${\sim}$4 hr Sodium A zeolite 0.5${\sim}$2 N NaOH 80${\sim}$$100^{\circ}C$ 6${\sim}$20 hr Hydoxysodalite > 4 N NaOH 80${\sim}$$100^{\circ}C$ > 4 hr The ratio of $Na_2O to SiO_2$ for crystallizing sodium A zeolite was 0.5-1.5. The $Ca^{++}$ ion exchange capacity of produced sodium A zeolite for 0.2 N $CaCl_2$ solution at $25^{\circ}C$ was amounted to 65% of theoretical value.

(Fe, Co)/zeolite catalysts such as (Fe, Co)/NaY, (Fe, Co)/NaBeta and (Fe, Co)/HUSY were prepared by ion-exchange method and their catalytic performance was examined in the hydroxylation of phenol with $H_2O_2$ for the production of catechol. The (Fe, Co)/NaBeta catalyst showed its best performance at reaction temperature=$70^{\circ}C$, molar ratio of phenol/$H_2O_2=3$, weight ratio of phenol/catalyst=50 and weight ratio of solvent (water)/phenol=6 as 20％ of phenol conversion, 77％ of the selectivity for the hydroxylation, 70％ of the selectivity for catechol, and 2.5 of the formation ratio of catechol/hydroquinone. The (Fe, Co)/zeolite catalysts showed the reproducible activities without deactivation after repeated regeneration. The fresh and used(Fe, Co)/zeolites were characterized by XRD, UV-VIS DRS, and XPS and their catalytic performance was discussed based on these characterization results.

The characteristics of the nitrogen adsorption with natural zeolite produced in Kampo area according to the chemical treatment by HCl and/or NaOH or the exchanging metal ion were investigated in the pressure range of 100~760torr at $25^{\circ}C$. The amount of nitrogen adsorption was followed at increment in the order of NaOH treatment>nontreatment>HCl treatment. Adsorption amount on natural zeolite treated with 0.5N-HCl/NaOH was improved about 200%, whereas that on natural zeolite treated with 0.5N-NaOH/HCl was decreased. When metal ion of natural zeolite was exchanged with $Na^+$, $K^+$ and $Cs^+$, adsorption amount of nitrogen was decreased as the size of cation was increased. But metal ion of natural zeolite was exchanged with $Mg^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$ and $Ba^{2+}$, the amount of nitrogen adsorption was increased.

Chlorination of methane was carried out over the Pt/NaY zeolite catalysts having different dispersion and location. On the finely dispersed platinum particles inside the zeolite methylchloride was the sole product, while on the large platinum ones outside surface of the zeolite all four chloromethanes were produced. Besides the role of highly dispersed platinum particles, the confined volume of the supercages in the support seems to have played another role on the exclusive production of methylchloride by restricting the further chlorination.

NaY형 Zeoilte는 현재 그들의 촉매적 특성과 흡착성 그리고 이온 교환성들을 이용하여 산업에 중요하게 사용되어지고 있다 본 실험은 고온 스팀을 이용한 방법과 산처리에 의한 방법으로 탈알루미나의 효과를 확인하는 실험을 하였다 먼저 SiO₂/Al₂O₃ 몰비가 4-6인 합성 NaY zeolite를 분위기 소성로에 넣고 증기발생 장치를 이용하여 500℃에서 고온 스팀을 분위기 소성로에서 일정하게 주입하였다. 에에 따른 결과는 탈알루미나 처리 후의 XRF와 BET의 결과로 탈알루미나 처리에 따라서 SiO₂/Al₂O₃의 몰비가 20.6에서 21까지 증가한 것을 알 수 있으며 또한 BET의 결과에서 탈알루미나 처리에 의해서 비표면적이 증가한 것을 확인할 수 있으며 특히 meso pore area의 증가는 탈알루미나에 의해서 zeolite의 골격구조가 일부 파괴되었음을 알 수 있다.

Membranes were prepared by incorporating Na-Y zeolite particles into poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) cross-linked with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA). The membrane was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, contact angle measurement, swelling test, SEM analysis, and XRD analysis. The pervaporation separation of water/acetic acid mixtures was carried out using prepared membranes. From the results, it was shown that the hydrophilic property of prepared membrane increased with increase of zeolite contents and the PVA/PAA membrane with zeolite addition showed higher permeation flux than that of without zeolite membrane. The PVA/PAA membrane containing 8 wt% zeolite showed the highest permeation flux and separation in the feed solution containing 10 wt% acetic acid.

As the concentration of ammonium nitrogen could be reached 2～3 mg/L in the winter in the river. It was clear that the excessive concentration of chlorinated organics could be produced with the increase of chlorine addition to remove ammonium nitrogen. In the innovative ammonium nitrogen removal process, zeolite adsorption is very efficient as substitute for rapid sand filtration without other adverse quality change in the water. This study is conducted to evaluate the feasibility of ammonium nitrogen removal and regeneration by zeolite adsorption in drinking water treatment. Also, the reuse possibility of zeolite is evaluated to change the removal efficiency of ammonium nitrogen through several times of regeneration. The ammonium nitrogen was not removed in sand filter, but it was almost removed in zeolite filter during 7 days. The sand and zeolite filters have a similar result of turbidity removal. Therefore, zeolite filtration was confirmed the removal of turbidity and ammonium nitrogen as a media. When compared KCl with NaCl as a chemical for zeolite regeneration, it is demonstrated that KCl was more efficient than NaCl in the ability of zeolite regeneration. The adsorption rate of ammonium nitrogen was almost not decreased in the results of several times of regeneration. It is indicated that both zeolite and regeneration solution were possible to reuse without variation of regeneration rate through this study.

This study was conducted for an efficient utilization of waste fly ash obtained from the power plant. Fly ash was used for synthesizing zeolite. Na-Pl zeolite could be easily synthesized from waste fly ash and showed the potential to remove heavy metal ions. The synthetic zeolite showed good adsorption property for heavy metal much better than raw fly ash and natural zeolites. Na-Pl exhibited the high adsorption efficiency with a maximum value of 260 Pb mg/g and strong affinity for Pb2+ ion. The metal ion selectivity of Na-Pl was determined in a decreasing order : $Pb^{2+}$>$Cd^{2+}$>$Cu^{2+}$+>$Zn^{2+}$>$Fe^{3+}$
