AZ™ Industrial Applications
With the ability to absorb 50% its weight in water and 30% in oils, natural zeolites are environmentally and economically acceptable hydrated aluminosilicate materials with exceptional ion-exchange and adsorption properties.
Their effectiveness in different technological processes depends on their physical-chemical properties that are tightly connected to their geological deposits. The unique three-dimensional porous structure gives natural zeolites various application possibilities.

Environmental & Ecological Crises
Asia Zeolite's AZ™ is an effective sorbent for oil fuel and chemical spill remediation and has become an important component in the field of synthesis due to the capacity of AZ™ sorbents to efficiently purify contaminated sites.
AZ™ can be used to absorb and clean up a myriad of chemical and
bio-hazard conditions.
Applications Include:
- Oils
- Fuels
- Liquid chemicals
- Solvents
- Biological, bio-hazard fluids (blood)
- Effluent
- Landfill leachate
- Radioactive waste
- Acid mine drainage
- Soluble heavy metals (Hg, Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, As, Mo, Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Sb, Ag & Ur) from wastewater
- Smelter slag and sludge

Oil and Chemical Spills
Able to hold 30% of its weigh in oil, Asia Zeolite's AZ™ is fast becoming the leading low cost weapon.
in the fight against environmental contamination. With its ability to be floated onto slicks or hard surfaces, AZ™ absorbs, clumps and encompasses contaminants for safe collection. It also eliminates bad odors!
Because AZ™ is inert, there is no contamination risk to handlers or the environment, and with its ability to be applied directly to wildlife,
AZ™ is the go-to solution for fast effective clean up.

Nuclear Remediation
Nuclear Remediation
Again because of zeolite’s molecular sieve structure it has a high affinity for retention of radioactive isotopes like cesium, uranium and strontium and was widely used at the Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear disasters to trap such radioactive elements. At Fukushima Japanese authorities have used zeolite in containment of radioactive water and as a buffer separating nuclear contaminated and uncontaminated land.

Better Construction Performance
Asia Zeolite's AZ™ pozzolanic properties and high silicon dioxide content increases the performance of cement. AZ™ acts as a stabiliser, increasing viscosity, enabling better handling and stability. It reduces the alkali – silica reaction and cement addition can be reduced without comprising material strength.

Concrete Benefits
Concrete Benefits
Studies using clinoptilolite AZ™ as a pozzolan and replacement to Portland cement in concrete mixtures, have found the effects of AZ™ are a reduction in chloride permeability, a significant reduction in expansion due to alkali-aggregate reaction, and an improved resistance to acid and sulfate attacks.
The results indicated that concretes containing AZ™ were comparable to or higher quality than concretes prepared with silica fume.

Asphalt Improvement
Asphalt Improvement
A number of benefits can be applied to asphalt production. AZ™ can improve bitumen performance such as penetration and softening point. WMA technologies allow to reduce the mixing and compaction temperatures by 20-40°C with increased strength and stability
Adding AZ™ in asphalt mixtures saves energy because of lower temperatures for mixing and compacting. AZ™ improves the performances of bitumen and asphalt mixtures, reducing any permanent deformation.

Pharmaceutical Applications
Pharmaceutical Applications
Zeolite, Clinoptilolite, has been widely used in the supplement, pharmaceutical and dental fields for many years, with new and advanced benefits discovered daily. Asia Zeolite's superior quality can provide medical grade material to the pharmaceutical market.
As well as bulk material for a wide range of medicines, Zeolite is the only substance in the world that can effectively cleanse a wide range of toxins from the body. Zeolites are also marketed as dietary supplements to treat cancer, diarrhoea, autism, herpes, and hangover, and to balance pH and remove heavy metals in the body. Zeolite is used in the treatment of skin ailments or lesions like skin ulcers, surgical incisions, and psoriasis.
Rapid development in the usage of surface modified natural zeolite (surfactant) for targeted drug delivery purposes is occurring within the biotechnology and biomedical science fields.
Cosmetic Applications
Zeolite is used in natural cosmetics without chemicals in the form of skin powder, skin cream, deodorant, toothpaste, hyaluronic gel, and face mask. Recent research has shown the viability of zeolites as a cosmetic ingredient to prevent heavy metal penetration through the skin. Zeolites act as “molecular sieves” moderating what molecules could get to the surface of the skin.
