Applications
Household and Industrial Odor Absorbents
Zeolite compounds for absorbing toxins and unpleasant odors: One of the issues many industries face is the production of toxic and foul-smelling gases, which are harmful to health and undesirable for people. The mineral zeolite naturally absorbs and eliminates many toxins and unpleasant odors…
Water Purification
With the increasing population, frequent droughts, and various water pollution sources, providing clean and safe water is one of humanity’s most critical challenges. The World Health Organization has reported that, on average, one of the ten diseases and six percent of deaths are caused by lack of access to clean water.
Purification of Industrial and Edible Oils
In industrial oil purification, the main aim is to remove carbon particles and other suspended particles, neutralize pH, eliminate sulfur and its odor, and decolorize the oil. This involves various operations such as acid washing, steam washing (at 400°C), and clay treatment…
Livestock, Poultry, and Aquaculture
Clinoptilolite is a porous aluminosilicate mineral with a nanometer-sized porous structure and high cation exchange capacity. This structure and its ability to absorb mycotoxins such as aflatoxins and ammonium, as well as toxic heavy metals like mercury, arsenic, cadmium, and lead, extend food shelf life.
Preservation of Agricultural and Food Products
This product is derived from a specific structural modification of zeolite, resulting in a special zeolite nanocomposite that helps preserve and prolong the shelf life of agricultural products and food. Available in various forms such as 20-50 gram sachets or impregnated papers…

Oil Spill Cleanup
Oil spills in aquatic environments such as oceans, seas, or even rivers are serious environmental hazards. Oil pollution from port activities, maritime transportation, large tanker accidents, oil drilling, and warfare poses a significant threat to coastal waters and harbors…
MTBE Contaminated Water Treatment
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary-Butyl Ether) is a water-soluble oil and refinery pollutant that is highly dangerous. Common around refineries, MTBE easily contaminates groundwater and the environment due to its solubility…
Wastewater Treatment
In recent decades, the production of various types of wastewaters with different pollution loads has increased significantly due to the rising population. Without proper management, wastewater can cause significant environmental damage. Treating and reducing the pollution load of this wastewater…
Landfill Leachate Control
Waste or refuse includes solid, liquid, and gas (excluding sewage) materials directly or indirectly generated from human activities and considered waste by the producer. With the increasing population and the large volume of waste produced, water, soil, and air pollution poses challenges for humans, other living organisms, and the environment. Managing this waste is a critical topic…
Zeolite-Based Antiseptic Wound and Surface Disinfectant Nanocomposite
This is another type of zeolite-based nanocomposite. This product aims to provide a multifunctional combination (powder, suspension, spray, hydrogel, etc.) for wound healing and surface disinfection. The zeolite nanocomposite is a compound developed at Tehran University of Medical Sciences…
