A microporous zeolite-type tianosilicate (TS-1), new catalysis elements, was synthesized by differents of the reactant solution pH. The range of reactant solution pH has from 10.0 to 12.4 TS-1 Zeolite (ETS-10), having a large pore (8~10 ${\AA}$), was synthesized at 10.4 of pH, since TS-1 Zeolite (ETS-4), having a small pore (3~5 ${\AA}$), was synthesized at 11.5 of pH. Also the two materials simultaneously existed at the intermediate pH. Crystallization, physico chemical characteristics of synthesized TS-1 Zeolite were investigated by XRD, XRF, SEM and FT-IR techniques.

The use of dry chemical powder has been increased as it can be stored for a long period and sustain in stable condition compared to gas or liquid phase extinguishing agents. A new type of dry chemical powder using Zeolite was produced in the research. Chemical powder was adsorbed into Zeolite 13X, a porous material appearing negative catalytic effect, to create extinguishing powder obtaining core shell structure and measured physical properties and run a small scale fire extinguishment. SEM, XRD, TA analysis was also executed, and extinguishing characteristics were measured by fire extinguishing experiment on oil pool fire. The experiment showed that the average particle size of Zeolite 13X was equivalent, indicating about $3{\pm}1{\mu}m$ and thermal analysis result illustrated that Zeolite 13X showed exothermic reaction peaks at $900^{\circ}C$ due to solid-state transformation. Extinguishing characteristics on oil fire of $NaHCO_3$/Zeolite 13X and $NH_4H_2PO_4$/Zeolite were improved, influenced by adsorbed extinguishing powders on Zeolite 13X and Zeolite 13X that contains high phase transition temperature.

In this study, adsorption of polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs) in transformer oil on powder activated carbon (PAC) and synthetic zeolite was evaluated. Adsorption characteristics of PCBs on the PAC and zeolite has been investigated in a batch system with respect to adsorbents amount and contact time. BET results showed 908 m2/g for PAC and 483 m2/g for zeolite. The adsorption capacity of PCBs increased with an increasing input amount of absorbent. The adsorption experimental results showed that PAC removed 90% of input PCBs in transformer oil while zeolite removed only 64%. Adsorption of PCBs to PAC and zeolite fit the Freundlich model well. The Freundlich parameter, Kf, for PAC and zeolite was 193.1 and 43.0 respectively, indicating that PAC is effect adsorbent for PCBs adsorption in transformer oil.

The physico-chemical properties and characteristics after thermal treatment of natural zeolite from Kampo area were studied. The physico-chemical properties of natural zeolite were studied by investigating chemical composition, x-ray diffraction pattern(XRD), scanning electronic microscope(SEM), infrared spec-tra(IR), thermal analysis(TA), and cation exchange capacity(C.E.C.), and the characteristics of natural zeo-lite after thermal treatment from $400^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ were compared with the natural zeolite. This study showed that clinoptilolite was the predominant costituent in natural zeolite, and the natural zeolite contained a little amount of quartz and feldspar as impurities. Zeolite mineral was seen to develop slowly by the natural alternation of volcanic ash considering the almost amorphous crystal structure. The more temperature of ther-mal treatment increased, the more adsorption capacity decreased, considering the fact that the hydroxy peak diminished on infrared spectra, and that cation exchange capacity also decreased distinctly.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of Zeolite levels on the performance of broilers. 360 starting chicken of Arbor Acre were selected for this study. Chickens were fed 4 levels (0.2.4 and 6％) of Zeolite in the basal ration for 7 weeks. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The body weight gain was highest in the 2％ supplement of Zeolite, but more than 4％ supplement resulted in lower body weight gain (P<0.05). 2. No significant differences were found in the feed intake among the treatments. 3. Feed conversion had no significant differences, among treatments but 6％ Zeolite group was slightly higher than the others. 4. The viabilities were not significantly differences among the experimental groups. 5. Moisture in excreta was tend to be decreased significantly as Zeolite levels were increased (p<0.01) 6. Carcass yield and abdominal fat deposition were not different significantly over all experimental groups. 7. Highest income was attained by 2％ supplement of Zeolite, but 6％ group was reduced significantly (P<0.05).

This study was performed to examine the effects of aluminum addition and recycle of NaOH waste solution on CEC and crystallinity of zeolite synthesized from fly ash. The added aluminum was used as the source of zeolite framework in zeolitization of fly ash. CEC and crystallinity of Na-P1 zeolite synthesized with aluminum addition were increased from 285 to $365cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$ and from 44.3 to 57.1% compared to that of simple hydrothermal treatment, respectively. The recycled NaOH solution did not affect the CEC of reaction products, though the crystallinity was decreased a little. Therefore, the additional supply of aluminum could improve the quality of zeolite synthesized from fly ash and the recycle of NaOH during zeolite synthesis can save the chemical without any adverse effects in the quality of synthesized seolite.

To reduce the environmental contamination and to utilize fly ash massively produced from the coal power plant every year, we synthesized the artificial zeolite using fly ash treated with alkaline, and then analyzed the mineralogical and morphological properties by X-ray, IR, and SEM. The amount of $NH_4{^+}$, $K^+$, and $H_2PO_4{^-}$ adsorbed by the fly ash and the artificial zeolite were determined with reaction time, amount of adsorbate used, ion concentrations. The results obtained from the pot experiments packed with the top soil, amended with granulated artificial zeolite which was made by treatment of 4% polyvinylalcohol, showed that CEC of the artificial zeolite was $257.7cmol^+kg^{-1}$, that was almost 36 times greater than that of fly ash. The ratio of $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ decreased but the amount of Na increased. The physico-chemical properties analyzed by X-ray, IT, and SEM represented that the artificial zeolite synthesized had a similar morphological structure to that of the natural zeolite. The structures of the artificial zeolite had a significantly enlarged surface having a lot of pores, while the fly ash looked like spherical smooth shape with having not pores on the surface. Thus, the artificial zeolite was successfully synthesized. The results of adsorption isotherms of fly ash and artificial zeolite showed that the amount of $NH_4{^+}$, $K^+$, and $H_2PO_4{^-}$ adsorbed increased as the equilibrium concentration increased, while $NH_4{^+}$ was strongly adsorbed on the surface of fly ash and artificial zeolite than that of $K^+$. The most distinctive growth of Chinese cabbage was found from the top soil(NPK + soils + 20% of granulated artificial zeolite + 5% of compost). Therefore, we concluded that one of the most effective methods to effectively recycle a fly ash was to make the artificial zeolite as we did in this experiment.

This study investigated on the adsorption of nonpoint pollution source using the Sand, hydroxyapatite(HAP), Zeolite and mixed culture. The adsorption of nonpoint pollution source on Sand, hydroxyapatite(HAP), Zeolite and mixed culture was investigated during a series of batch adsorption experiments. After the batch absorption experiments analysed COD, T-N, T-P on adsorption water. The experimental data was analysed using the pseudo-first-order adsorption kinetic models. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were tested for their applicability. The maximum adsorbed amount $(Q_{max})$ of COD were found to be sand 0.0511mg/g, HAP 0.1905mg/g, Zeolite 1.0366mg/g and Mixed media 0.7444mg/g. The maximum adsorbed amount $(Q_{max})$ of T-N were found to be sand 0.0159mg/g, HAP 0.0537mg/g, Zeolite 0.5496mg/g and Mixed media 0.1374mg/g. The maximum adsorbed amount $(Q_{max})$ of T-P were found to be sand 0.0202mg/g, HAP 0.1342mg/g, Zeolite 0.0462mg/g and Mixed media 0.1180mg/g. As a result, the mixed media was effective to remove nonpoint pollution source.

In order to separate of carbon dioxide in the combustion exhaust gas, monoethanolamine (MEA) and piperazine (PZ) impregnated zeolite 13X adsorbents were used. A series of adsorbents were synthesized by impregnating 30, 50 and 70 wt% of MEA and PZ respectively on zeolite 13X pellet. XRD, FT-IR and BET were used to characterize the properties of impregnated pelletized zeolite 13X absorbents. In order to investigate the separation characteristics of carbon dioxide, zeolite pellet, MEA impregnated zeolite and PZ impregnated zeolite pellet were investigated at 25, 50 and $75^{\circ}C$. Amine impregnated pelletized zeolite absorbent has shown that adsorption decreases with increasing temperature. Finally, the carbon dioxide adsorption capacity when emission temperature of the combustion exhaust gas, PZ impregnated zeolite pellet was 1.8 times than zeolite pellet as well as 20 times than MEA impregnated zeolite pellet.

The zeolite crystals were synthesized by hydrogel process into the pore of activated carbon. The effect of activated carbon in the course of the crystallization of zeolite was investigated. The phenomena of impregnation of zeolite crystals into the pore of the activated carbon were also examined. The results show that in case of the addition of 5% of activated carbon to the aluminosilicate gel including the mole composition of zeolite A, zeolite A was purely synthesized without the existence of other type of zeolite. However, in case of the addition of 20% of activated carbon, zeolite X was purely synthesized. In the pore mouth and internal of activated carbon, zeolite crystals having the size under $1{\mu}m$ was observed. From the results of the pore size and particle size distributions, it was confirmed that the synthetic sample was the composite material impregnated by the zeolite crystals into the pore of activated carbon, not the simple mixture of zeolite and activated carbon.
