Product type
Zeolite powder is a naturally occurring mineral that is widely used in aquaculture for water treatment. It is composed of hydrated aluminosilicate minerals that have a unique crystalline structure, allowing them to effectively absorb and exchange ions. This property makes zeolite powder an excellent agent for improving water quality by removing ammonia, heavy metals, and other toxins from aquatic environments.
| Chemical composition | Primarily composed of silica and alumina |
| Particle size | Typically ranges from 20 to 100 microns |
| pH level | Neutral to slightly alkaline, typically around 7 to 8 |
| Cation exchange capacity | Varies, typically between 100 to 200 meq/100g |
| Moisture content | Usually less than 10% |
When selecting zeolite powder for aquaculture applications, consider the specific water quality issues you are addressing, such as ammonia removal or heavy metal absorption. Specify the desired particle size and cation exchange capacity to ensure optimal performance. It's also important to check for any certifications related to safety and environmental impact. Quantities may vary based on the scale of your operation, so provide details about your needs when requesting a quote.
