Abstract

Abstract A method for making a zeolite comprises continuously contacting a solution of a silicate with a precipitating reagent to effect continuous change of concentration of the silicate solution and to form an insoluble silica precipitate having a particle size of 1-500 micron. The silica precipitate is then introduced into a reaction mixture, which is maintained under conditions effective to convert said silica into the required zeolite and which contains up to 40% silica solids loading and 0 to 10 weight percent seeds of the required zeolite

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A method for making a zeolite comprising a) providing a solution of a silicate: b) providing a precipitating reagent which is effective to precipitate said silicate as silica from said solution; c) continuously contacting said solution with said precipitating reagent to effect continuous change of concentration of said silicate and to form an insoluble silica precipitat, having a particle size of 1-500 micron; and d) introducing said silica precipitate into a reaction mixture, which is maintained under conditions effective to convert said silica into the required zeolite and which contains up to 40% silica solids loading and 0 to 10 weight percent seed of the required zeolite.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 107 words
A method for making a zeolite comprising a) providing a solution of a silicate: b) providing a precipitating reagent which is effective to precipitate said silicate as silica from said solution; c) continuously contacting said solution with said precipitating reagent to effect continuous change of concentration of said silicate and to form an insoluble silica precipitat, having a particle size of 1-500 micron; and d) introducing said silica precipitate into a reaction mixture, which is maintained under conditions effective to convert said silica into the required zeolite and which contains up to 40% silica solids loading and 0 to 10 weight percent seed of the required zeolite.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 17 words
