Abstract
The invention relates to zeolites which have high substitution levels of element with regard to aluminium content and in particular such zeolites where the substitute to silicon ratio is also high. A method for producing such zeolites by presenting the substitute material in tetrahedral oxo-anion form is also provided.
Claims7
A process for producing a zeolite comprising the steps of:
- (a) providing a source of aluminum (Al) dissolved in a metal hydroxide solution;
- (b) introducing a source of at least one metallic element (Me) other than aluminum in tetrahedral oxo-anion form to the metal hydroxide solution;
- (c) mixing the metal hydroxide solution with a source of silicon (Si) slurried in water;
- and
- (d) subjecting the mixture to conditions suitable to cause a reaction which forms a zeolite;
- wherein said Me source is selected from the group consisting of FeO.sub.4.sup.2- and MnO.sub.4.sup.-.
