The raw clay mineral was acid-activated prior to expansion by cetyltrimethylammonium surfactants. The acid activation process affected the intercalated amount of cetyltrimethylammonium cations in the resulting organoclays and, thus, the ...
We have developed sorbent materials for seawater desalination using different natural materials such as zeolite, clay, soil, coral, and chitosan. The materials were initially activated at temperature range of 200 °C to 600 °C for 3 hours. The greatest salinity reduction was obtained using either activated-zeolite (at 200 °C) or activated-soil (at 600 °C).
This contribution demonstrates the sensitivity of antigorite dehydroxylation to treatment conditions and discusses the implications of the observations for scientific (i.e., dehydroxylation kinetics) and technological (i.e., energy efficient conditions and design of practical activation reactors) applications. At present, the energy cost of dehydroxylation of serpentinite ores represent the ...
To future-proof alkali-activation technology, there is a need to look beyond well-established precursors such as fly ash and blast furnace slag, due to resource competition, geographical distribution and technical limitations.

CLAY MINERAL CLASSIFICATION Clay minerals are generally classified into three layer types based upon the number and arrangement of tetrahedral and octahedral sheets in their basic structure. These are further separated into five groups that differ with respect to their net charge (Table 2). 1:1 Clay Minerals The 1:1 layer minerals contain one ...
Thermal properties of two soil samples: 0% saturation and a saturation, at room temperature. The results received follow the soil thermal conductivity/moisture trend mentioned previously. A low thermal conductivity reading (0.364 W/m·K) was achieved with a 0% moisture content, while the soil sample at saturation, displayed a higher ...
While kaolin clay is widely used in its "raw" form, heat treating kaolin to produce metakaolin and other forms of calcined kaolin further increases its usability and creates an engineered product. Calcination can enhance or alter a variety of the mineral's properties to produce a material with characteristics suited to a given application.
